A delightful and smart spin on 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens, this novella fits a whole lot into a small package. Small-town boy turned pro football star, Trey Janssen, returns home for the first time in twelve years to bury his mom. Describing the town as something Christmas threw up on, he just wants to take care of his Mom's things, bury her and get back to his life. Fortunately for him, coming home again's not that simple. His past, present and future, catch up to him in a big way, and the week before Christmas is anything but easy. Things move fast but I never felt like it was rushed. Humorous, a bit sad, but with plenty of sizzle, this Holiday romance will definitely satisfy.
