About this item

She’ll save Christmas just to spite him…


There’s only one thing standing in the way of Cat King saving a small town’s Christmas festival: Grumpy town manager Noah Yates.

Single dad Noah takes his responsibilities seriously. When a late season hurricane turns Merry, Connecticut, into a disaster, he’s left scrambling to pick up the pieces of the town he loves.

At least, until home renovation expert and smoking hot reality TV star Catalina King arrives with a camera crew and a budget big enough to put the town back together again. But Noah doesn’t want a celebrity diva capitalizing on their tragedy or filling his daughter’s head with visions of glitz and glam.

Blonde bombshell Cat is used to being underestimated, but Noah has an uncanny knack for getting under her skin. They can’t be in a room together without rubbing each other the wrong way…except that time in the dark alley where the rubbing was just right. Can these enemies work together to pull off a Christmas miracle or will their fighting leave them both on the naughty list?

Author’s Note: These enemies-to-lovers deliver the holiday feels with a dirty-talking hero, ballsy blonde who never backs down, steamy hot break-the-dining-room-table sexy times, and a small town that still believes in the magic of Christmas.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The mamma jamma of all Christmas romances! Cat King is amazing!
    Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2017
    If you’ve read Mr. Fixer Upper (and if you haven’t, what on earth are you waiting for?!?!), you probably already love Cat King. I know I did. As soon as I finished Mr. Fixer Upper, I had a list of characters I was hoping for more from. Cat was at the top. She was so full of life. She worked hard and played just as hard. She stood up for what she believed in. She was a great friend and loved her family dearly. How much more could you ask for in a character? I loved Cat King.

    So, Lucy Score is fantastic. She heard the outcry of her fans and the whispers (okay, it’s Cat...they were probably shouts) from Cat, and The Christmas Fix was born. Okay, I’m not positive exactly how this happened, but this is how I like to imagine it. Either way, Lucy gave us The Christmas Fix, an amazing enemies-to-lovers Christmas story, and it is perfect. I thought I loved Cat King before, but now I am completely enamored. I am in awe of this woman. Everything I liked about her before is magnified by a million, but there is also this other side to her that we didn’t get to see in Mr. Fixer Upper. This side that loves so hard, cares so deeply, and turns to mush only at the most perfect of moments. She is a complete and total rockstar. She still stands up for women’s rights, works herself harder than anyone else, and enjoys having a good time, but watching her fall in love is truly something special.

    And Noah, oh Noah. Noah may seem like a complete jerk in the beginning (remember, this is enemies-to-lovers, and I already loved Cat), but there is just something about him. He is so noble. Even when he is completely wrong, he has good intentions. He is a good, sensible guy who loves his daughter and his town. He wants to protect both from anything that could harm them. Unfortunately, he believes Cat King falls into that category. However, Cat being Cat is determined to prove him wrong. As the story unfolds, you fall further and further in love with Noah.

    I absolutely love these two together. The balance they found with one another was incredible. Noah needs Cat to bring him out of his shell and really live. He needs her to show him what fun really is. And Noah is the stability and steadfast support Cat needs in her crazy life. And the chemistry, oh my goodness the chemistry. These two are completely off the charts. Their banter is fantastic. Cat says what she thinks and doesn’t hold back which causes (and/or ends) some fantastic arguments. And their love is even more explosive than their hate. While you have to wait for them to get there, it is completely worth it! The tension builds until it boils over in perfection.

    What more could you want, right? Well, in true Lucy Score fashion, this book brings all the feels. The town of Merry really becomes a character of its own with the wonderful people and traditions it holds dear. Watching the town come together in this time of need is amazing. The residents are unique and wonderful. The way they support one another is heartwarming. The way they take in Cat and her crew is extraordinary. I seriously want to move there...who wouldn’t?

    This book was beautifully written. The symbolism is subtle and truly amazing, the characters are so real and complex, and seriously all the feels are there without it being over the top. There are very few authors that can include humor, love, witty banter, and so much emotion in the same book naturally, but this book truly has it all. I can’t recommend it enough.

    This book has the perfect recipe for holiday charm! While the story started a little slow, once it picked up, I was all in.

    The sparks between Noah, the protective single dad, and Cat, the fiery reality TV star, brought just the right amount of angst and tension to keep me hooked. Their banter was delightful, their chemistry undeniable, and their growth together was the icing on this Christmas cookie.

    The small-town setting of Merry, Connecticut, was so vivid, and the festive spirit was palpable as Cat worked to bring the Christmas Festival back to life. Throw in the heartwarming relationship between Noah and his daughter, and you’ve got a holiday read that's equal parts cozy and swoony.

    If you’re looking for a story full of redemption, festive feels, and just the right dash of enemies-to-lovers spice, this is your fix! ????✨

    | holiday romance | romcom | enemies to lovers | spicy | single dad | grump x sunshine | reality TV star | expect the unexpected | small town romance |

    This was a cute holiday read. It hasn’t been my favorite this season, however it was everything you can expect from Lucy Score.

    The characters were older, farther into life, and the romance was spicy. The enemies to lovers was giving with lots of banter, build-up, and angst.

    I think the plot line just wasn’t my favorite. Outside of the plot the dialogue and building were great which is to be expected from an author such as Ms. Lucy Score.

    I loved the town of Merry and all the festivities. It has a strong sense of community and I always enjoy a small town romance.

    This book is worth the read, however it’s something I am likely never going to read again or purchase for my collection.

    Nevertheless, enjoyable.

    Happy Reading Friends xx

    5.0 out of 5 stars A sweet little Christmas story
    Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2024
    I was going to read this months ago but I am so glad that I waited until now because Christmas is next month and the timing is perfect. Lately getting into the holiday spirit hasn’t been as easy as it once was like 5 years ago. But reading has helped tremendously! Christmas romance stories will definitely be in my library during the end of this year. But more related to the book specifically, I thought it was a good light hearted read, but a little on the cheesy side toward the end. I called how this was going to end to the T, completely predictable! But that’s okay, this is a romance story so it’s not terribly disappointing. Also, I liked the spicy scenes, a lot. I always like some detail. If there’s no detail, I find myself wanting more of what the author lacked to give the reader. And she didn’t disappoint. Loved it, definitely going to pick up more of Lucy Score’s books!
