We Wish You a Messy Christmas by Melody Carlson
This is a cute neighbors-to-more with an obnoxious parent in the middle.
Olivia and Malcom have been neighbors since childhood. They left for the city and when they meet by chance, a sweet budding romance blooms.
Their families are polar opposites and next door to each other. Jane is a perfectionist and her neighbor’s messy carefree lifestyle drives her close to the edge with decades of resentment.
Christmas arrives and Olivia fears that her mother will drive her new love interest in the opposite direction,
Read this to find out how an intervention and holiday calamity create a mess of their own.
I loved this one. I did want to see more interaction and development from the roommate, Tracie, but alas this is a novella.
The tension that built around Jane and her compulsive behavior was brilliant. Christmas was a perfect season to let this story boil over into mayhem.
The characters are wonderful and the setting perfect for a family Christmas story.
Excellent writing! 4.5/5⭐
