A Christmas Truce

Photographer Libby just got fired. Again. Then she gets home early to find her boyfriend in bed with another woman. And just like that, her dreams of a Christmas Day proposal are shattered.

Libby lands a new job as a personal assistant to enigmatic businessman Seth Coleman. He’s terse and demanding — it’s no wonder Libby keeps messing up.

Then one day an adorable Golden Retriever puppy is delivered to the house. As Libby helps Seth train Barney, she realizes that there’s a surprisingly sweet side to this CEO . . .

But everything goes wrong when Libby finds out that Seth’s company just bought the community centre where they’ve been training Barney. It’s not only puppy classes, it’s a lifeline for the whole village. Libby is devastated when Seth says it’s ‘just business’. So she packs her bags.

Until disaster strikes and Libby is forced to spend her favourite time of the year with a man who doesn’t even own tinsel. It’s up to Libby to bring some much-needed Christmas spirit. Starting with a truce, since they’re going to be stuck together whether they like it or not.

But Libby might just find magic under the mistletoe after all if she can encourage Seth to open his heart to Christmas . . .

Great story

there was an error. each time I returned to the book, it started from the beginning...every time.

Listen now! Don’t wait for the first snow!

Just a delightful main character and great British setting. I listened to it in 3-4 days at the beginning of November to set the tone for the weeks ahead. It’s fun to get a head start on holidays, winter, early dark evenings, and well-written romances.

Fun and light

Just what I wanted to listen to. Characters are great and easy to relate to.

Uplifting and entertaining

The story has interesting characters and a captivating storyline. I enjoyed it from start to finish. Voices are very well done and it is easy to distinguish which character is speaking. This is a fun tale without any sexually explicit details which it doesn't need to hold the reader's attention.

Well worth the time

Very good story line and voice work. I really enjoyed the entire book of characters
