About the Book
He's the hottest country rock star in the country whose reputation needs to be repaired. I'm an unemployed event planner who's desperate for a job. When I'm forced to team up with Mr. Smolder for the most ambitious Christmas event around, it might be my biggest mistake yet . . . For me, Christmas has never been the most wonderful time of year. It's a painful reminder of my father walking out and my whole family's world crashing down. After that, I never really believed in a happily ever after. Right now, I've got my hands full giving my hometown Christmas festival a much-needed makeover, while trying to convince Jace Knight (a.k.a.: Mr. Smolder) to headline a concert for the event. It's an uphill battle to wrangle the festival committee and turn the town into quaint Christmas village, while I ignore these feelings that involve mistletoe kisses with the famous music star. The last time someone tried to kiss me under the mistletoe, it was a total disaster. Which is why I'm not about to let Jace Knight work his mistletoe magic on me now . . . especially since I'm hiding a secret: I've never been kissed before.
About the Author :
Grace Worthington eats, breathes, and geeks out over sweet rom-coms. So it's no surprise that she believes that laughter and love are a cure-all for pretty much everything in life. After a short stint working in musical theater (where she was often cast in comedic roles), she instills her books with witty banter, lovable characters, and a story that moves your heart and soul. Her inspiration includes quaint towns by the beach, romantic comedy movies from the '80s and '90s, and the crazy shenanigans of her family. Jeannie Sheneman is a classically trained actor who has been acting in some form for over twenty years. She is a graduate of the University of Michigan's theater program with a minor in English literature, so what better career for her than audiobook narrator? Jeannie has launched into the industry with the down-to-earth-velvety sparkle she brings to narration. She has the uncanny ability to relay an author's story with truth and rawness, opportune wit, thoughtful introspection, and, if requested, some sass (or a lot). One high schooler, a middle schooler, and a couple of silver Labrador pups covers her time not spent in the booth. If she gets a free moment you may find her picking hornworms off of her tomato plants, dancing in her kitchen with knives (just making dinner, no worries), knitting a fine hat, baking like she's the next contestant-to-be on The Great British Baking Show, watching classic movies, or sitting on the porch with coffee, French wine, or a bourbon. And she always has a book in print nearby, and a book playing in her ears. Jeannie Sheneman is a classically trained actor who has been acting in some form for over twenty years.
