Our Review

My life could have been ripped straight from a Hallmark movie. My name is Caroline "Candy" Cane, I own a country inn, date a man who runs a Christmas tree farm, and my mom's peppermint fudge wins first place at the Reindeer Corners' festival every year. Basically, I'm living every romance-loving girlie's small town dream. Until a last minute trip to New York City leads to catching my boyfriend banging a Rockette (in full elf costume). So, when I'm offered a chance to star in a hospitality-themed reality show, I jump at the chance to serve hot cocoa in roller skates on national television. The only problem? The smoking hot, broody, perfectly bossy producer, Leo… He's everything I've ever wanted in a man, but he's also my new boss and completely off-limits. And that's before we realize our lives–and our pasts–are more intimately intertwined than we could have imagined. Do I dare make holiday magic with the one man I now know I should never kiss under the mistletoe?
