TYPORAMA
***********
Laurel Grant works as the social media manager for Buckeye State of Mind, an Ohio tourism magazine and website. She most definitely does not run
a farm . . . but one tiny misunderstanding leads her boss, Gilbert, to
think
she owns her twin sister Holly’s farm just outside of Columbus. Laurel
only handles the social media for the farm, but she’s happy to keep her
little white lie going if it means not getting fired—she cannot be jobless again.
And keep it going she must when Gilbert, recently dumped by his wife, invites himself over for the farm’s big Christmas
Eve Eve dinner (as advertised on Meadow Rise Farm’s Instagram, thanks
to Laurel herself). Laurel immediately goes into panic mode to figure
out how she can trick Gilbert into thinking she’s basically the Martha
Stewart of rural Ohio and keep her job in the process.
Laurel and Holly come up with the perfect plan—all Laurel has to do is pretend to own the farm for one dinner. But Laurel shows up at the farm to find an unwelcome guest is waiting: Max Beckett, her nemesis since Holly’s wedding. The annoyingly attractive man she hates will be posing as Laurel’s husband just for the evening, but when a snowstorm traps them all for the entire weekend, Laurel is going to have to figure out how to survive with her job and dignity intact. Whatever the case, this promises to be the most eventful Christmas in ages. . . .
