**Disclaimer— no hot cocoa or ugly sweaters required to read. In fact, grab a beach towel and a cold drink. Christmas in July is a sweet small-town romance, with a sprinkle of holiday magic in the middle of a sizzling McKenzie Ridge summer.**

 

Far from the glow of Tinseltown, Fifi Gallagher returns home to McKenzie Ridge to settle her grandmother’s estate only to find she’s inherited more than just property.

 

Right on the heels of sparklers and the Star-Spangled Banner, Fifi’s knee-deep in twinkle lights and Jingle Bells when she takes her grandmother’s place as head of the town Christmas Festival... in smoking hot July.

 

Doctor Jensen Bain finds himself on the naughty list of the infamous Fiona “Fifi” Gallagher. Too bad Christmas came early this year - all he’s getting is an eviction notice.

 

Accidentally becoming friends with the enemy certainly wasn’t part of the plan, despite the fireworks flying between the big-city girl and the small-town vet and all his quirky pets.

 

When mysterious letters start arriving from a secret admirer, Fifi’s heart is suddenly torn between Hollywood and Holly-weird as she questions if she’s meant for the red carpet... or red checkered flannel.

 

It's beginning to look a lot like love...
