A Festive Feud by Maren Moore
4.0

Smalltown Feuds

Gotta love when a feud begins between two families and then the children get pulled into it. They grow up hating each other out of principle, not because the other person is not a good person. Well, it all comes to a head in this book, over the annual Christmas parties that the two families throw. One minor (okay, $10,000) mishap, and the newest generation must work together to throw ONE party for the whole town, instead of the separate parties that have happened in the past. Of course, if anyone has ever read a book of this type, we all know that the two who have been thrown together are going to do more than just party planning. They discover who they are outside the views of their families (who have never gotten to actually know each other). A cute Christmas story where the families are thrown together and, amid the season of giving, finally talk out their issues.
