About this listen

AN INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER

"It Happened One Christmas is irresistibly Christmassy with all the sparkle of a Hallmark movie. So festive I could almost smell the scent of pine through the pages." —Jenny Bayliss, author of Meet Me Under the Mistletoe

A charming and rollicking holiday rom-com about a big-city film director who must convince the dreamy, yet grumpy, mayor of a small town to give her the permit to shoot her Christmas movie in his idyllic hometown. Perfect for fans of Hallmark holiday movies, and readers of Maggie Knox's All I Want for Christmas and The Hating Game by Sally Thorne.


Will her Christmas wish come true?

Zoey Andrews lives and breathes Christmas. She loves everything about the season, and after years of directing countless holiday movies, she certainly knows her way around a festive tale. So, when she finally gets the chance to bring her own script to life, she isn't about to let anything, or anyone, stand in her way--not even the stupidly sexy, utterly frustrating plaid-clad tree farmer Benoît Deschamps. Moonlighting as mayor of Chelsea--the cozy Quebec hamlet at the center of Zoey's screenplay--Ben maddeningly refuses to grant her a film permit in his enchanting town.

With just four days left before Christmas, Zoey must change Ben's mind, but not before an unscripted ice storm leaves them stranded in the middle of nowhere, with nothing except . . . each other.

Will Ben's chilly resolve shatter Zoey's Christmas movie wish? Or will Zoey be able to melt his stubbornness--and maybe even his heart?©2023 Chantel Guertin (P)2023 Doubleday Canada

This book is short and sweet and it's about Zoey who is finally getting her break for directing her first Christmas movie, and she decided it will be in Chelsea Quebec in Canada since she spent a holiday there and it was magical to her, so she packs before Christmas just in time to get into the festive mood in the city and get the permit from the Mayor of the town so they can begin shooting for the movie .. the problem ? the Mayor Ben ( young and handsome, wink wink ) refuse to give her the permit saying the town will be overflooded and it will lose it's magic, in a twist of fate ( and a little Christmas magic) Ben and Zoey find themselves stuck together in a snowstorm where there is no power, no phones no help but each other, so they have to put their differences aside and be one team .. and love will bloom

it's a cute Christmas book and I began reading it right at my birthday in January but the last six months were very weird and I'm glad I finally get to a new chapter where I can return to reading again .. really nice book and I enjoyed it

Nice Christmas Book
