24 Dares of Christmas by Lee Blair
4.0
When Christmas Grinch Reed agrees to watch his aunt's dogs while she's on a sweeping European vacation with his parents, he is prepared to be a hermit for a month and do nothing but watch trashy TV. He's on a paid vacation leading to a promotion to a team lead position within the marketing firm he works for...in Seattle.
When he gets to Dahlia Springs he is greeted by his aunt's tenant Warren and the old advent calendar he created in middle school dubbed "the 24 DARES of Christmas". His aunt has set him 24 dares to get him up and out enjoying Dahlia Springs.
And it works. Bringing him closer to the town and Warren in the process.
Warren and Reed are unbelievably cute together. Them navigating Reed's bi-awakening and inevitable move to Seattle while still growing closer is cute and fun to watch. Seeing both boys reclaim their love for photography or marketing (in a cozier more personal way). I love these Dahlia Springs books so much. They all have a really cozy Hallmark movie vibe and that's lovely.
