Two best friends fake date to reach their holiday happily ever after in this first romantic comedy in the Lovelight series.
A pasture of dead trees. A hostile takeover of the Santa barn by a family of raccoons. And shipments that have mysteriously gone missing. Lovelight Farms is not the magical winter wonderland of Stella Bloom’s dreams.
In an effort to save the Christmas tree farm she’s loved since she was a kid, Stella enters a contest with Instagram-famous influencer Evelyn St. James. With the added publicity and the $100,000 cash prize, Stella might just be able to save the farm from its financial woes. There’s just one problem. To make the farm seem like a romantic destination for the holidays, she lied on her application and said she owns Lovelight Farms with her boyfriend. Only…there is no boyfriend.
Enter best friend Luka Peters. He just stopped by for some hot chocolate and somehow got a farm and a serious girlfriend in the process. But fake dating his best friend might be the best Christmas present he’s ever received.
My Thoughts:
I absolutely loved this book! This debut novel is the first in the Lovelight series and it was amazing! I cannot wait to go and binge the rest of this series! Definitely re-read worthy!
Stella and Luka! What a great book couple! What great chemistry they share. Even before their love was professed - the sparks flew off the pages!!!
So many great tropes in this book and even better taking place during the holiday season! While I can see the annoyance of not having open communication telling each other how they felt about one another, I can see how much they mean to each other and did not want to jeopardize their friendship.
This is a quick real - with dual POV (my fav) and the side characters are just as wonderful as the MCs. I look forward to their stories! I loved the betting pool that the town had for them and just how happy everyone was for them. Oh and those cats…how stinking cute are they!
