“Like It’s Christmas” by Diana A. Hicks is a heartwarming contemporary romance set in the charming Winterstorm Village, where Christmas is celebrated with unmatched enthusiasm. The story revolves around Rhett Parker, the newly appointed Mayor, who despises Christmas, and Parker Cruz, the Mayor’s daughter, who is determined to keep the holiday spirit alive despite her father’s unfortunate accident.

When a record-breaking blizzard threatens to cancel the town’s beloved Christmas festivities, Parker proposes a fake dating arrangement with Rhett to save the season. Rhett, known as the town’s Scrooge, reluctantly agrees, leading to a series of humorous and heartwarming events that challenge their preconceived notions about love and Christmas.

The writing is engaging and filled with humor, making the characters relatable and endearing. Rhett’s transformation from a Christmas-hating Mayor to someone who embraces the holiday spirit is both touching and believable. Parker’s unwavering determination and warmth bring a sense of hope and joy to the story. Winterstorm Village, with its festive decorations and close-knit community, adds to the book’s charm.

I wholeheartedly recommend this Christmas romance that weaves romance and holiday magic, creating a delightful read that captures the essence of Christmas. The chemistry between Rhett and Parker is palpable, making their journey from fake dating to real love a joy to follow. It is a perfect read for the season, filled with warmth, laughter, and the promise of new beginnings.
