No one wants to be single at the holidays. Even Little Miss Grinch, Nikki, a successful and independent woman, must face her bachelorette status at the most horrible time of the year. December is her personal version of holly-jolly hell: a merry torture made of couples kissing at every corner, forced vacation days, and an inescapable family reunion. And when her baby sister announces she’s engaged—to Paul, the man Nikki is secretly in love with—and that he’s spending the holidays with them, Christmas starts looking bluer than ever. Nikki can’t possibly survive an entire week trapped home as the family’s spinster. But she has no time to meet men or to try the newest dating app, she’s too busy working as a video producer for an advertising agency. So what’s a girl to do? Nikki has the perfect solution: to hire a fake boyfriend. Luckily, her job gives her access to an endless catalog of gorgeous actors to choose from. But Nikki will soon discover that keeping business and pleasure from mixing isn’t so easy, and that she might not be immune to a little mistletoe magic. Especially not when she picked out the perfect man as her Christmas date... A fun, festive romantic comedy with lots of bad behavior and Christmas spirit. Like a creamy hot chocolate with marshmallows, you won’t want to put this deliciously hilarious novel down. Perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Sally Thorne, and Jo Watson. First Comes Love is a series of interconnected romantic novels. However, each book in the series can be read as a standalone.

"2.5 star<br/><br/>Not going to lie I looked at this in my goodreads after reading this a few days ago and had no idea what it was about. But after refreshing my memory with the summary I'm good to go. Still that can't be a good sign.<br/><br/>I was jumping between a 2 and 3 star and decided to slice it down the middle. Thinking back nothing stands out to me except for the funny vegan meals scenarios. The romances did not feel genuine just a right place right time kind of thing.<br/><br/>There seemed to be a lot of he is too gorgeous for me which made me feel a little uncomfortable. Also the sister was over the top and was obviously just placed in the story to make the protagonist profoundly more reasonable and suitable for male interest.<br/><br/>Again just ok nothing stood out to me and of course predictable."
