When Christmas Bells Ring - The Meadowview Series, #8

One Christmas-obsessed former girlfriend plus one self-proscribed Scrooge plus five highly active kids all snowed in together could equal either an unmitigated disaster or the magical holiday of a lifetime. Malcolm Gallagher isn't one for the holidays, but his former high school girlfriend Lainey Balciero loves everything to do with Christmas. This year, Malcolm had planned to spend the holidays alone, except that Lainey and all her siblings seem to have taken over his house while he was out.
Bah, humbug. This will be the first Christmas Lainey and her five young siblings will experience as orphans. But as guardian of her new brood, Lainey will do anything to give her siblings a very merry Christmas, and that means convincing Malcolm to stop being such a gosh-darned grump!Sometimes a little holiday magic is all that's needed to set what was wrong right again. (previously titled HER ONE HOPE FOR CHRISTMAS and published as part of the Hope Falls Kindle World)
