Synopsis (Goodreads):
She'll save Christmas just to spite him...

When a late season hurricane hits Merry, Connecticut, city manager and single dad Noah Yates has to inform the already devastated residents that there won't be a Christmas Festival this year. No festival means no tourism dollars. A disaster of epic proportions for his hometown.

But when home renovation expert slash smoking hot reality TV star Catalina King shows up with a camera crew and a budget big enough to put the town back together again, Noah balks. Hard. The last time Cat was in town she stirred up trouble everywhere she went. (Residents are still talking about the town's first and only bar fight.) Noah doesn't need a TV diva capitalizing on his town's tragedy or filling his daughter's head with glitz and glam.

Cat is ready and willing to put Merry back in Christmas mode with a holiday special that will leave everyone believing in miracles and get her friends back in the home they love. But there's one big problem standing in her way. And his name is Noah Yates. He's wrong about her and she can't wait to prove it. Ring those jingle bells because it's on.
Thoughts on The Christmas Fix: No lie, Lucy Score gives good romance and Cat and Noah worked for me. HARD. Their antagonistic verbal sniping was just a whole lot of foreplay and they were blissfully unaware of it until they were suddenly attached at the mouth behind a bar. And things only went uphill from there.

To put things gently, Cat is a freaking force of nature and she's good at what she does. She's not going to let a hunky city manager with a chip on his shoulder stop her from helping the people of Merry. And if she has to be a little underhanded to get him to say yes, so be it.

Noah, on the other hand, is a little more buttoned up than force-of-nature Cat. He's good at weighing the pros and cons of a situation and making decisions that are in the best interests of his town. He sees Cat as a flash in the pan reality star who's only there for the fame and platitudes. Cat, however, proves him wrong again and again. And the more he gets to know her, the more he grudgingly comes to like her.

A little sass, a lot of sparks, a lady who is determined to bring Christmas joy to Merry even if she has to wear herself to the bone to do it, and a single dad who finds himself admiring the hardworking lady despite himself. Like I said, LS gives good romance and I am SO here for it.
