Christmasland by Anne-Marie Meyer

A Town Where All Your Christmas Dreams Come True

When Emilia told me she won an all inclusive trip to Christmasland, I laughed. Outloud.
Surely a place like that didn’t exist.
Boy, was I wrong.
Now I’m stuck on holiday repeat where everywhere I turn there’s Christmas carols, sledding, cookie decorating, and holiday cheer. All of which, I’m told, is part of the “experience” of Christmasland. But I can’t believe that. A whole town dedicated to recreating a Christmas movie for all of its guests? You’ve got to be joking.
Until I start checking off the list of events.
Rescued by a Handsome Stranger who’s Back Home from the Big City ✓
A Overzealous Town Busybody who seems Determined to Change my Grinchy Spirit ✓
A Baking Competition I Couldn’t Possibly Win ✓
A Montage of Feel Good Christmas Events ✓
An Interrupted First Kiss… ✓
Now I don’t know what is real and what is fake. I know I have feelings for the grumpy Hero, but I can’t tell if he returns them.
In a place that peddles in fake realities, this is the first experience I wish was real.
I want to believe in a Christmas miracle, but my holiday history has told me, Christmas comes with nothing but disappointment.
I’ve never gotten a happily ever after and I doubt that will change now.
