About the book
In the midst of a chaotic holiday season in Harrogate, tensions rise as the townspeople nearly revolt over the theft of Christmas decorations by the head of the Elf on the Shelf Committee. I realize that I must take drastic action to survive the holidays.
However, I never expected the situation to escalate to the point of Biddy Jefferson being found dead in my Christmas market stall. With the town convinced of my guilt and no alibi to prove otherwise, I must clear my name. In addition to this challenge, I have to juggle planning the holiday ball, managing eccentric stall owners at the Christmas market, and guiding bewildered tourists.
To make matters worse, Remington Svensson, the town’s new Christmas-themed police officer, suspects me of the crime. Despite this, my long-standing crush on him remains unshaken.
With the help of my loyal friends, a meddling half sister who is fixated on my non-existent love life, and plenty of spiked hot chocolate, I am determined to uncover the true murderer... and perhaps unwrap a special Christmas surprise!
This book offers a unique blend of holiday romance, comedy, and mystery. From festive puns to a charming law enforcement officer, it has all the ingredients for a steamy and suspenseful holiday read.
