NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new grumpy-sunshine standalone holiday romance
Blakely
When my boss tells me I’m taking over the planning of the annual Christmas gala, I can barely contain my excitement. Not only is it a huge opportunity, but I also love all things Christmas.
I’m on cloud nine until I realize I have to work closely with the grumpy doctor, who is my opposite in every way. He loathes the holidays. At least that’s what he says. His eyes tell me a different story.
That’s why I make it my mission to make him fall in love with Christmas. That’s our family motto after all. I’ll make him love the holidays harder than ever before. How hard can it be?
Oliver
My contract states I have to serve on a committee. When I fail to submit which committee I’d like to work on, I’m assigned the Christmas gala. Me… the guy who detests the holiday.
In years past, I let the marketing manager handle it all. I was there if she needed me. She never did. I expected more of the same this year, but it turns out, I get more than I bargained for. I didn’t anticipate her. Miss Ray of Sunshine, assistant manager.
That’s how I find myself attending holiday events and attaching myself to her any way I can. She’s trying to make me fall in love with Christmas. Instead, I’m falling in love with her.

Review:
This story was refreshing, not only did we see one of our favorite people all grown up, but we have a man that is vulnerable with his feelings. Oliver had his moments where we saw the alpha man we are used to Kaylee writing about, but in this story, we see a man that was hurt and still hasn't allowed himself to heal. Oliver is still healing when he meets Blakely and she is just a bucket full of sunshine. Her huge family and love of Christmas will make you smile. Her happiness is very contagious and Oliver just doesn't want to catch it. These two together made me happy, they were just a lot of emotions together and took care of each other. What was supposed to have an ending became forever.
