Good Elf Gone Wrong by Alina Jacobs
4.0

Let's begin with the fact that there is an adorable dog named Pugnog. A star is earned just for this beautiful fact.

This book was just a fun rom-com of insanity. The characters, plot, and spicy scenes were hilarious and overly exaggerated. This book was a fun jaunt into the holiday-romance world and I had a great time. Gracie hires Hudson minutes after meeting him on a bus to pretend to be her boyfriend and destroy her sister's wedding. (Trust me, they deserve it.) Hudson is also not who he seems and is using her for his motives. So begins an insane story in a small Rhode Island town filled with a million Christmas cookies, a cute dog, hockey games, and miniature figurines.

Gracie is the biggest doormat to ever exist. Her fiancee literally sleeps with her sister the night before the wedding and a year later she is still around helping to decorate their wedding. Hudson is a jerk and a liar and I wanted to kick him in the face. Gracie's entire family were spoiled, entitled villains that you want to feed to a hungry pig. There is also a grandma who is massively horny and another with a sword in her cane! Guys, I had a good time. It was seasonal. I feel accomplished.
