Better Not Pout: A smalltown, fake HOLI dating romance

A sugar-filled, fake holi-dating, small town romance filled with heat, heart, a couple of temperamental weenie dogs, and heaps of holiday cheer from USA Today Bestselling Author Maren Moore.A lost letter to Santa gone terribly wrong...or perfectly right? As the owner of my family's vintage candy shop, there are two things I'm great at: Sweet treats and Christmas.Love on the other hand? Not so much.So when my best friend insists we write letters to Santa asking for our dream men, I figure it's just a bit of holiday fun...until my letter mysteriously disappears.And then Wells McCoy moves in next door. Retired hockey player. New bar owner. Ridiculously handsome. Infuriatingly expert at pushing all of my buttons. And somehow, he checks off nearly every box from my dream man wish list.When Wells unexpectedly steps in to help me save face in front of my ex, we strike a deal: A little fake holi-dating to get us both through the season. No feelings and no strings.But between confusing mistletoe kisses, cozy nights with his family, and chemistry that feels anything but fake, lines start to blur. Suddenly, fake feels a lot like falling. And with the clock ticking down to Christmas, I can't help but wonder: was it all just a sweet coincidence... or is this Christmas magic after all?
