Book details
A holiday matchmaker, a grumpy single dad, and one risky bet
In Merry Little Kissmas, Lauren Blakely introduces Isla, a professional matchmaker who lives for holiday sparkle and happily ever afters. Her newest assignment sounds simple enough. She has to find a date for Rowan, a star hockey player, devoted single dad, and her brother’s best friend, for his team’s big Christmas Eve gala.
Rowan does not believe in romance or Christmas magic, and he turns the favor into a challenge. Convinced that Isla cannot find him a holidate, he makes a bet that puts her professional pride on the line. To prove him wrong and get him ready for real dates, Isla agrees to go on practice outings with him. Fake dates at tree farms, hot cocoa events, and small town festivities quickly start to feel less like coaching and more like something neither of them planned.
As snowstorms force them closer, mistletoe kisses blur the rules, and Rowan’s daughter begins to hope this match might be permanent, Isla has to decide how much of her heart she is willing to risk. Between family ties, past heartbreaks, and a town that loves a love story, this Christmas season could give them both more than they bargained for.
