Resumen del Editor

Abby Carpenter is in a tailspin knowing she is about to spend 10 days in the company of her ex-girlfriend - who is now engaged to her brother - for a family holiday gathering in Red River, New Mexico. The same ex-girlfriend who last year at Christmas had lured her into bed. Abby’s solution? A pretend girlfriend for the holidays would surely keep her ex away and in her own room at night, right?

Nic Bennett’s life has been far from ideal and Christmas is her most dreaded holiday of all as she relives horrors from the past. When an attractive stranger approaches her with the offer of a chance to get away for ten days, she agrees but with a counteroffer that brings both anxiety and excitement to the desperate Abby.

Among the holiday lights and snow-covered grandeur, the lines between pretend and reality blur as the two women have the time of their lives while Abby learns it isn’t her ex she cannot resist and Nic learns what it means to be part of a family for Christmas.

A proposition, a counteroffer, and a Christmas charade heal two souls and meld two hearts into one.

Loved it

Fake girlfriend to lover is an old trope, but Gerri Hill builds characters you can't help loving. I've read every book she's published and this one is a sweet reminder of why she's one of the top lesfic authors out there. It's definitely on my listen-again list.

wonderful story

I loved the characters and storyline. the narration was superb I only wish there were a second book. would make an excellent series

Christmas charade

Abby Craden never disappoints, and neither did this story. Hill is a master author, no matter which trope. I adored both main characters, the guarded Nic and the verging on crazy Abby. The chemistry that snowballed between these two turned into a roaring blaze. Recommended? Yes, I would.

Fears of Love

I loved it, and the authoress and narrator tell a story with happy ending

Love is never Blind

A Great story by a great narrator. I was in the story when I laughed out and then cried and then I hated her even more. A different take on fake girlfriend scenario. Love it of course.

Still a fan...

Gerri Hill is an author whose works I have enjoyed over the years. This one is right on par with the restof her library of work.

I've also had the privilege to enjoy Abby Craden as a narrator and found her to do a very good job as usual.

I'll be looking forward to the next one 😀.

The best fake Girlfriend story ever.

Nichas a lifetime full of awful experiences that would damage any heart. Abby has an ex girlfriend who cheats on her with her brother at Christmas. The next Christmas sleeps with Abby cheating on her brother. So this Christmas is just too scary. So Nic agrees to be her fake Girlfriend and well let the fun begin. Such great feels as they get to know each other. Abby Craden makes the story just so real and hot but a loveable listen I couldn't put down.

A good listen on a rainy day

I finished this book in a day. It held my interest with the crazy family dynamics and the one character you just can’t stand.

A Very Different Romance

I don’t usually like the fake relationship trope, but this one worked for me. There’s a whole lot of complications and a cargo hold full of baggage on both sides, but this couple worked their way through it to a real HEA. Not your usual romance and the lesbian factor played a unique part. Abby Craden was her usual, meaning excellent and invisible.

Sweet and addicting

This is an adorable love story that you can’t help but want to keep listening to just to find out how their story plays out. Gerri Hill makes you fall in love with these two main characters and, by the end, you can’t help but feeling like you know them personally. And of course, Abby Craden’s voice does an amazing g job at bringing all of the characters to life.
