Faking Christmas

De: Cindy Steel

Narrado por: Justis Bolding

One little white lie—that's all it took. Now I'm suddenly having to fake-date my work nemesis to get through a week at a Vermont Christmas lodge with my family.

The problem? I can't stand Miles Taylor. Not only that, but I don't date people I work with. But I can handle it. I've had practice faking my emotions for years. So it shouldn't matter that Miles never lets me get away with anything. And that he happens to boil my blood hotter than a steaming pot of wassail. So when he throws his annoying grin my way or forces me on dates he knows I'll hate, I'll just grit my teeth and smile.

Or maybe not.

Did I mention that Miles is the one person in the world I can't seem to fool? When my emotions begin feeling less like a sham and his arms feel way too comfortable, it makes me think that maybe Miles had a plan of his own. And I'm starting to like it a lot more than mine.

Again and again

I loved listening to this book. it was fun, sweet, and memorable. I want to listen to it again, right now.

perfect narration to my favorite book

It may seem odd to have a Christmas-themed book as my favorite book, but such is my life. This book is so good. I have read this 4 or 5 times in the last few months. I finally got the audio book, and I'm so glad I did. The narrator has just the right amount of snark for the female main character. She does a good job with voicing the male main character as well. Cindy Steele is an amazing writer and this will always be a favorite story of mine to listen to, any time of the year!

Perfect Holiday Romance!

This book melted my heart and I loved every second of it! Don’t miss out on this one.

Enemies and grief with holiday fun

Fun holiday romp, with lots of laughs and adventures of holiday bingo adventures, as two co-workers have fun and work through past losses. Great ending!

Cindy knocked it out of the park again!

This book is so good. Just so good. If you want a romance with sizzling good romance, but the door stays closed, choose this book. If you love a lighthearted read that still contains depth and emotion and sometimes difficult backstories the characters have to work through, choose this book. If you love a good character arc, choose this book. If you love a swoony hero or a snarky heroine, choose this book. If you love cameos from quirky family members and cute little kids, an ex-boyfriend who gets shown up, hilarity in the form of things like polar jumps and sledding, and good old fashioned Christmas celebrations at a good old fashioned farm, choose this book. Basically this book has all the things you want in a really good Christmas read, and should not be missed. Loved it!

“Reader, I spanked him.”

We are getting into my annual holiday comfort reads and I love it. This one was out on audiobook this year and the narrator is so good. Olive and Miles are so freaking sassy.

Things I Love:
🌲that he falls first
🌲that his family tries to set them up before they know
🌲that they *almost* complete the blackout
🌲the contents of Olive’s kindle
🌲the bridge
