Book Description
Welcome to Christmas Grove, where holiday magic and matchmaking are in the air. When Rex Holiday walks into the charming town of Christmas Grove, all he plans to do is to spend the season helping out at his buddy's Christmas tree farm. What he doesn't expect is for an overzealous matchmaker to slip a love potion into his cider. But the joke's on the resident matchmaker, because not even a potent love spell can break through the walls he's built around his heart. But when the girl next door catches his eye, some of his barriers start to crumble. Still, Rex Holiday's time in Christmas Grove is only temporary. He can't afford to fall in love. Or can he? Holly Reineer is a powerful spirit witch who can see the future for everyone. Everyone but herself that is. And when Rex Holiday walks into her life, she sees his, too. He's destined for a big corporate job all the way across the country. So when he starts to show interest in her, she knows it's only temporary, and Holly's not interested in a fling. She wants her happily-ever-after. But he's very hard to resist... Can a love spell rewrite the future? If so, Holly will need to learn to follow her heart and, for once, trust what she can't see.

Author: Samantha Silva
Publisher: Flatiron Books
ISBN: 1250154030
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
“A charming, comic, and ultimately poignant story about the creation of the most famous Christmas tale ever written. It’s as foggy and haunted and redemptive as the original; it’s all heart, and I read it in a couple of ebullient, Christmassy gulps.” —Anthony Doerr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of All The Light We Cannot See Laced with humor, rich historical detail from Charles Dickens’ life, and clever winks to his work, Samantha Silva's Mr. Dickens and His Carol is an irresistible new take on a cherished classic. Charles Dickens is not feeling the Christmas spirit. His newest book is an utter flop, the critics have turned against him, relatives near and far hound him for money. While his wife plans a lavish holiday party for their ever-expanding family and circle of friends, Dickens has visions of the poor house. But when his publishers try to blackmail him into writing a Christmas book to save them all from financial ruin, he refuses. And a serious bout of writer’s block sets in. Frazzled and filled with self-doubt, Dickens seeks solace in his great palace of thinking, the city of London itself. On one of his long night walks, in a once-beloved square, he meets the mysterious Eleanor Lovejoy, who might be just the muse he needs. As Dickens’ deadlines close in, Eleanor propels him on a Scrooge-like journey that tests everything he believes about generosity, friendship, ambition, and love. The story he writes will change Christmas forever.
