About this listen

Christmas is nostalgia heaven for my family (unless you count the Christmas tree fire last year, which we won't...).

Mom owns more holiday decorations than 12 area malls combined. Dad prides himself on hand-chopping the best live tree, while my older sister perfected peppermint cookies to the point of unparalleled bliss, and my younger sister has memorized every Christmas carol with her fingers for a piano bash that goes on and on.

And on.

But this year, Christmas is different.

This year, the McCormick men are joining the Yankee Swap.

You know how it works, right? Bring the craziest gift you can possibly find, pick a number, open the presents in order and play “steal the gift” until person Number One gets one last chance to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

My husband, Declan, is on a mission to win. He's so sure he can find the absolutely, positively, unreservedly weirdest gift that he's willing to go to any extreme to find it.

Any extreme.

That's right.

He's going thrift store shopping with my mother. The billionaire and the frugal queen are on a quest.

Only one will win.

And on Christmas evening, after we're stuffed silly, sung out, the kids fall asleep and the adults break out the bizarre presents and the alcohol, it'll be showtime.

Because there ain't no competition like a McCormick competition.

But the Jacoby family has a trick or ten up its sleeves, too.

Declan and Shannon are back in yet another hilarious Christmas family saga in Julia Kent's New York Times bestselling romantic comedy series.

It's a competitive Yankee Swap - what could go wrong? Listen and find out.

Fun addition to the series

This is probably my favorite in the entire series. The family is growing and celebrating the holidays together with typical and over the top family drama and fun. I had to pause to catch my breath from laughing. The characters have grown so much and stayed true to the beginning. I love the story and the narration is really good!

So fun

The series is fun, funny, so much reality combined with fiction that you just laugh, snicker, giggle and chortle all the way to the end.

Another fun one

Love listening to Julia Kent Shopping books. The family interactions keep me laughing wondering what's coming next. Wondering if I will be hearing more about Terry and his story.

Great Read

Shopping for a Yankee Swap (Shopping for a Billionaire #17) was a great read by Julia Kent. Christmas is a big deal in Shannon's family, even after the Christmas tree fire last year. Her mother owns more holiday decorations that most mall combined. Her dad chops the best live tree, and her sister perfected peppermint cookies. Her younger sister has memorized every Christmas carol's for a piano. Christmas is different for them this year. The McCormick men are joining the families Yankee Swap. You bring the craziest gift you can find, pick a number, open the presents in order and play "steal the gift" until the person with number one gets one last chance to snatch a gift. Her husband Declan is on a mission to win. He is willing to go to extremes to find the weirdest gifts. He has decided to go thrift store shopping with her mother. I enjoyed reading this book and cant wait to read more by the author.

LOL Funny!

I enjoyed this as much as all the shopping series. I laughed so hard. I hope this series does not end for a long long time!

Too short!

The stories are always great and the characters you learn to love. My only complaint is that it takes three books to make one story.

Hilarious and heartwarming!

The latest Jacoby/McCormick holiday adventure includes Boy Scouts adventures, Christmas tree cutting, emergency helicopter rides, Yankee Swap gift hunting, and loads of fun with toddlers as Declan and Andrew learn there’s more to life than work. I loved their transition from workaholics to family men, their constant rivalry, and their wildly entertaining euphemisms concerning canoodling with their lovely wives. Marie is up to her usual shenanigans but she’s mellowed a lot and Shannon and Amanda are closer than ever. In befitting style Tanya Eby and Zachary Webber really delivered with hilarity and heartwarming moments.

Another hysterical book in the series

This series is one of my absolute favorite rom com series, with emphasis on the comedy. I love the outrageous humor that Julia Kent infuses in these books, and the extended McCormick/Jacoby family is a riot and a half at all times. The lengths that matriarch Marie goes to in order continue the Yankee Swap tradition are outrageous. Declan, Andrew and James McCormick are not used to this caliber of holiday shenanigans to say the least. And I love the growth that all of these characters have shown over the series.

As usual, Tanya Eby and Zachary Webber turn in superb performances that really enhance the funny and the emotional. I love what they've done throughout this series as Shannon and Declan.
