ABOUT THIS BOOK 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. MY REVIEW After a slightly hectic day, I decided to pick up A CHRISTMAS DATE by Camilla Isley and I am so glad I did because it really made me smile and relax. Nikki has a successful career that she works really hard at and close friends that she adores but with the Christmas holidays at home with her family looming, she is definitely not in the Christmas spirit. Nikki loves her family but it's hard having to listen about her perfect sister and her perfect fiancé - the guy who used to be her best friend and should have fallen in love with her. So during another phone call from her mother, Nikki makes up a boyfriend and soon finds herself hiring an actor for the holidays - a handsome, kind, considerate guy who could just be her perfect match if she could just let go of the past. With mishaps, sizzling chemistry, and home truths coming to light, A CHRISTMAS DATE by Camilla Isley has everything you need to make you feel all warm and fuzzy and put a smile on your face. Yes, the story did automatically remind me of the movie The Wedding Date, but it still brings fresh characters with their own issues, tension, and charisma, so don't let that put you off. The characters are really well-rounded, and I loved the close relationship that Nikki and Blair share. Diego is everything you want and more in this story and is sure to make your heart flutter. A CHRISTMAS DATE by Camilla Isley is fun, flirty, and filled with family messiness and I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. Definitely a must for the Christmas season. AUTHOR BIO Camilla is an engineer turned writer after she quit her job to follow her husband on an adventure abroad. She’s a cat lover, coffee addict, and shoe hoarder. Besides writing, she loves reading—duh!—cooking, watching bad TV, and going to the movies—popcorn, please. She’s a bit of a foodie, nothing too serious. A keen traveler, Camilla knows mosquitoes play a role in the ecosystem, and she doesn’t want to starve all those frog princes out there, but she could really live without them.
