Christmas with the scrooges
Joyeux Noel, Elinor
Christmas is a fucking humbug.
Elinor Scrooge’s antique business is failing, her evil stepmother Joann Marley is dying, and her fiancé might as well be a ghost. But Elinor is given a chance to at least save her business when her stepmother promises her two-thirds of the estate at the time of Joann’s passing. All she has to do is stay at the estate through Christmas. No big deal, Christmas is only a few weeks away…
It becomes apparent once she arrives that Elinor has to save more than just the antiques. Suddenly she has a few weeks to pack up and renovate the crumbling estate, keep her best friend away from her baby brother, avoid an old childhood friend who makes her want more, and try not to help her stepmother into an earlier grave. Will Elinor be able to make it to Christmas? Or will she find herself with an uncertain future?
Falling for Farris
“This house has always been my cage of responsibility and obligation–I can’t stand to stay in it’s liquor-soaked walls for long.”
Farris Scrooge isn’t thrilled about his dying mother’s wish for him to come home, but he would never, could never say no to her. What he didn’t expect was his sister to bring an earthly Goddess to help with the estate.
Basilia Clemente, Bas, would never intentionally break a promise to Elinor, but that Farris makes her mind think less than platonic thoughts! If she can just keep her focus on the task at hand…maybe she’ll make it out without screwing up her relationship with her best friend and business partner!
Bas and Farris know starting up a relationship right now is a bad idea. But the tug of a forbidden romance is so strong, can they stay away?
