The Christmas Plan: A Holly Falls Christmas

By Judy Powers

A spreadsheet can solve anything. Especially loneliness. Or can it?

Corporate consultant Amy Donovan has a system for everything from optimized weeknight pasta to saving a client $17 million. But she can't figure out how to stop spending Christmas alone. Tired of disappointing her mother, she implements "PROJECT: CHRISTMAS HUSBAND," a multi-tab, data-driven plan to find a suitable long-term partner in 25 days. She's targeting the statistically-favorable demographic of Holly Falls, a Vermont small town.

Her meticulously color-coded schedule instantly derails when she literally trips over the charmingly grumpy local historian, William Crane. William is cynical about holiday traditions, resists all planning, and despises everything her spreadsheet stands for. The more they argue over cobblestones and Christmas wishes, the more Amy realizes he's everything her data told her to avoid. But when William accidentally discovers her analytical "Christmas husband" project, the stakes go from finding a date to losing her heart, forcing her to confront the fear that drove her to plan in the first place.

Dive into this witty and tender holiday romance (Tropes: Planned Romance/Boyfriend for the Holidays, Grumpy/Sunshine) where a control-freak discovers that the best things in life-and love-are never, ever on the schedule. Can Amy trust her gut when her heart's a total statistical anomaly?

It turns out Mr. Right was about to be crossed off the list, but he was definitely worth the field assessment.
