The Christmas Crush by Noelle Douglas
This book had a cute, classic Hallmark Christmas kind of feel to it and was a pretty enjoyable read. I loved the small town vibes, Lawrence's relationship with his Grandmother, and how much of the book featured cookies.
I thought the author did a great job of fleshing out the character's unique situations and the reasons behind their reactions to each other so it didn't just have a meaningless miscommunication conflict but actually worked through what the issues were.
The only problem I really had with the story was Elena's job. It was difficult to suspend disbelief enough in how this situation would have gone in real life and buy into the idea that they could both succeed, and I really struggled to get past her actually asking him to help her as if it was a reasonable thing to do.
