From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Meghan Quinn comes a brand new holiday rom-com with all the humour and heat her fans adore.

Nothing says I love you like trespassing, public humiliation, and a town-wide Christmas spectacle to win your crush back.

Atlas "Max" Maxheimer did not sign up for this. One minute, he's anxiously trying to keep his family's Christmas tree farm from imploding. The next? He's passed out in the snow after getting clocked by a suspiciously strong bottle of soda.

Enter Betty: new in town, full of holiday cheer, and helping her uncle open a rival tree farm next door. Max is convinced she's out to destroy everything Evergreen Farm stands for. Betty thinks Max might be one sleigh short of a winter parade.

Cue the holiday chaos.

Between blizzards, blown reputations, wildly misguided romantic plots, and one stolen ornament with a seriously tragic backstory, this small-town war turns into something far messierβ€”and much more deliciousβ€”than either of them expected.

Tropes:

  • Holiday hijinks
  • Small-town laughs
  • Rivals to lovers

Merry Christmas, You Filthy Animal (Standard Edition) by Meghan Quinn is a holiday treat you won't want to miss.
