About this audiobook

SOON TO BE A STREAMING ORIGINAL MOVIE!

Get ready for a laugh-out-loud holiday romance that's brimming with witty banter and heartwarming cheer by the bestselling author of Meet Me in the Margins, Melissa Ferguson.

Chronic people-pleaser Chloe Hollis is determined to finally learn how to get over her fear of rejection. Her unconventional solution? She must collect ten "nos" before Christmas Day by asking strangers for the most ridiculous favors she can dream up. But her plan goes hilariously off-track when she meets James Dutton.

James, a rule-following workaholic, has decided to do the exact opposite of Chloe: he's saying "yes" to every opportunity that comes his way in hopes of finally embracing life--and maybe a little Christmas spirit.

As they continue to get tangled up in each other's wild experiment, Chloe and James find themselves in a whirlwind of festive, awkward, and delightful situations. But no one is more surprised than they are to realize they're falling in love.

With sparkling humor and swoon-worthy heart, this delightful Christmas rom-com is a feel-good story about facing fear head-on, choosing growth over comfort, and finding the courage to say "yes" to the things--and the people--that truly matter.

Chloe Hollis is done people-pleasing. To take control, she sets a challenge: collect ten “no’s” before Christmas. But when charming James keeps saying yes to her wild holiday plans, Chloe’s rules start to fall—along with her heart. This is a cute, sweet, small-town holiday romance. I loved the characters, even if they did seem a bit over-the-top sometimes. The plot can be a bit zany, but it's heartwarming and uplifting. I enjoyed the audiobook narration. Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC.
