Description from the publisher:

All Suzanne St. Michelle wants is an over-the-top, eggnog-induced holiday with her best friend in Credence, Colorado.  But when her hoity-toity parents insist she come home for Christmas in New York, she blurts out that her sexy landlord is actually her boyfriend and she can’t leave him—Joshy loves Christmas.  The more twinkle lights the better.



Rancher Joshua Grady does not love Christmas.  Or company, or chatty women.  Unfortunately, for him, the chattiest woman ever has rented the cottage on his ranch, invited her rich, art-scene parents, and now insists he play “fake rancher boyfriend” in a production of the Hokiest Christmas Ever.  And somehow… she gets him to agree.



Apparently, he’ll do anything to get his quiet life back.  At least there’s mistletoe every two feet—and kissing Suzy is surprisingly easy.  But in the midst of acres of tinsel, far too many tacky Christmas sweaters, and a tree that can be seen from space, he’s starting to want what he lost when he was a kid—a family.  Too bad it’s with a woman heading back to New York before the ball drops…

THE TROUBLE WITH CHRISTMAS is the second book in the Credence, Colorado series.  It stands on its own, but I’m whining that I want the first book any way!



This story was full of sexy irreverent fun, blackmail, and silly Christmas sweaters.  The fire between Suzanne and Josh was ignited from the moment they met.  I’ve been to after-Christmas bonfires that looked like mere match flicks in comparison.



What I loved the best about this book was that it wasn’t Hallmark ready.  There was very little sweetness.  There was way too much cussing for TV and there were giant penis cookies for Santa and the reindeer! 




No, this is not going make anyone say, “Aww.”  Instead, it’s real.  It made me laugh aloud and cheer.  Suzanne and Josh deserved to find their happiness together.



I loved all of the tacky, silly Christmas traditions that Suzanne and Josh created in their first year together.  I can’t wait to see what next year may bring!



Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via NetGalley, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
