Fool Me Twice at Christmas: A Fake Engagement, Small Town, Holiday Romantic Comedy

Written by Camilla Isley

Narrated by Denice Stradling

There are two types of relationships: fake and real.

Chuck and Kate’s used to be real, oh-so-real. But after she broke his heart four months ago, leaving him, it became all just pretense for the sake of their entwined families.

With parents who are best friends and business partners, it’s not easy for Chuck and Kate to announce they’ve split up. But with the holidays looming over them, they can no longer keep pretending.

Chuck and Kate head home for Christmas, determined to tell the truth—and end up accidentally engaged instead. The more they try to pull apart, the more the Universe seems to push them back together, shortening the road to the altar. And when just-for-show kisses stir up forgotten feelings, things get even more complicated.

Now, with the midnight hour approaching, will Chuck and Kate’s relationship turn out to be real or fake?

Reviews for Fool Me Twice at Christmas

[R S · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This is not a heavily Christmas story, but it is a cute romance story that I enjoyed. I know one review expressed concerns about a toxic family, but I did not take it that way at all. If you enjoy cute little RomComs that come together with errors, you’ll enjoy this one.

[Cricket · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

One of the most annoying female leads—-and the end was kind of a non ending. Yeah. I can’t recommend.

[Eilidh Nicholson · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

This is a story about stupid, selfish people doing stupid, selfish things but worse, there’s a serious undertone of an emotionally abusive and controlling family that’s played like it’s hijinks. It literally ends with four parents aggressively chasing them in a vehicle chase because they’re unhappy with a decision the two characters have made in their own interests with absolutely no resolution or comment that this is horrendous behaviour. Save yourself from a wildly unhealthy depiction of family dynamics and pass this book by!

[Carla Johnson-Hicks · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

A fun Christmas romance with great characters. I loved the family and how they eavesdrop and get it all wrong. I recommend this one for a fun, Christmas Romance.
