Waiting on Wednesday (102)

Holidate 
Dating #3
By: Monica Murphy

Book Synopsis:

Candice Gaines loves Christmas. Not only does she bask in the twinkling lights, sing Christmas carols and go crazy with the decorations, she’s also in the giving spirit, donating much of her time and wealth to various charities in the local area. 

Charlie Sullivan despises Christmas. Though it keeps his family afloat, considering they own Sullivan Family Christmas Tree Farm, the main provider for Christmas trees on the Monterey peninsula. He’d much rather work among the trees versus have to deal with people. 

But Charlie’s parents are taking on more philanthropic projects—and as their oldest child, they want him to be their official public representative. He just has to play nice and convince everyone he’s not a total holiday hater. 

When Charlie’s mom asks Candice to accompany him to a variety of holiday parties and events, she reluctantly agrees. She thinks Charlie is a big ol’ Grinch, but is determined to change his mindset and help him spread Christmas cheer. Charlie finds Candice too chatty, too sweet, too much. Do people like her really exist? 

Why yes, yes they do. The more time they spend together—along with a few kisses under the mistletoe—the more they start to like each other. Hopefully Charlie can convince Candice he doesn’t have a heart that’s two sizes too small before the ball drops on New Year’s Eve.

Why I'm Eagerly Waiting:

I've been reading the Dating Series and really enjoying these sweet and fun romances, that also give us a heavy dose of female friendship.  I met Candice in the previous book, Fake Date, and she was like a ray of sunshine.  Her personality was effervescent, and when I got a glimpse of her story at the end of the book, I immediately added it to my wishlist!  The stories in this series are standalones.  Each book is about a different friend in the tight knit group of girl friends.

What Are You Waiting On?

  8. Awww I love characters like Candice who do the work of thawing a hard heart!! This sounds so divine for Christmas time. Hahaha I love anti social characters, probably because I'd rather be home with a book (instead of a tree) than out at a party. ❤️
