THE NIGHT BEFORE GRUMPMAS by Kendall Hale is AVAILABLE NOW
Blurb:
An all new holiday grumpy-sunshine rom-com with banter, delicious tension, and plenty of festive spice from Kendall Hale.
Life doesn’t go according to plan, but sometimes it brings you exactly what you didn’t know you needed.
I’m Noelle Holiday, lover of all things cozy and festive. I thought moving into my grandma’s rent-controlled apartment in New York would be a fresh start. What I didn’t expect was sharing a wall with Jacob McCallister, my grumpy, Grinch of a neighbor who hates joy, cinnamon candles, and any music with jingle bells.
He’s broody, blunt, and allergic to holiday cheer.
I’ve never met someone so bothered by a string of twinkling lights or the scent of freshly baked cookies. Naturally, I made it my mission to thaw his frosty exterior.
The problem is that the more time we spend together—whether it’s bickering over decorations or sharing late-night conversations through the walls—the more I realize there’s more to Jacob than scowls and sarcasm.
And when Grumpmass Eve arrives, we’re both faced with a choice: keep things the way they are or risk it all for a love worth unwrapping.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars
I have really been enjoying Kendall Hale’s Mishaps series. I loved this holiday book with Jacob and his neighbor!
My goodness, Noelle Holliday is the perfect name for this Christmas-loving character! BUT… the names of these characters kinda gave me the ick because my kids have the same names LOL \
Anyhoo… The Night Before Grumpmas was entertaining, charming, sexy, and sweet, topped with a candy cane! The banter between these two was hilarious, and the chemistry was sizzling. Jacob and Noelle were about as opposite as you can imagine. She’s cheery and eternally optimistic; he’s broody, sullen, and eternally annoyed. I loved seeing Noelle get to that softie hiding underneath all that grump.
I think this book may be my favorite out of the Mishaps bunch! I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
