Alyson Chase
Alyson Chase lives in Colorado. A former attorney, she happily ditched those suits and now works in her pajamas writing about men’s briefs instead of legal briefs. When she’s not writing, she’s probably engaged in one of her favorite hobbies: napping, eating, or martial arts. (That last one almost makes up for the first two, right?) She also writes humorous, small-town, contemporary romance novels under the name Allyson Charles and paranormal romance as A. Caprice.

The Christmas Tree
Coming 11/22/16!
Sadie Wilson doesn’t think Christmas can get any worse. Her real estate staging business is going under, the house she inherited is a wreck, and she was just arrested for driving while texting. Then she learns that she’s sentenced to one week of community service decorating the town’s Christmas tree for the annual lighting ceremony – with the man whose truck she destroyed.
Colt McCoy has a contractor’s business to run. He doesn’t have time for forty hours of stringing tinsel, especially not with the uptight princess who totaled the truck his brother left to him. Between a Grinch stealing Christmas decorations, a father he just can’t please, and unwanted lessons on the art of tree decorating from the fastidious yet sexy Sadie, Colt is ready for this holiday to be over.
As Sadie and Colt work together, tempers flare…and sparks fly. This Christmas just might remind these two that the best gifts are found under The Christmas Tree.
Under The Christmas Tree
Get ready to deck the halls… and dodge the flying ornaments.
Sadie Harper blew into Pineville, Michigan with one plan: sell her late grandmother’s house, cash the check, and escape before anyone could force eggnog on her. Then she commits one teensy-weensy murder of a parked truck (no one was even inside!), and suddenly her holidays have gone from ‘Ho, Ho, Ho,’ to one hot mess.
Now she’s stuck doing a week of court-ordered community service—decorating the town Christmas tree right alongside the grumpy, flannel-wearing contractor whose truck she demo’ed. And if the look in his eyes is any indication, he’s not willing to forgive and forget.
Colt might want to deck something, but it isn’t the town tree. Especially when the bossy, perfectly-put-together blonde micromanages every ornament he hangs and every strand of lights he strings. But between the candy canes and the tinsel, Colt finds himself doing the one thing he swore he wouldn’t: falling for the one girl he knows he can’t have.
Too bad Sadie was never planning to stay. And if she leaves, she just might take his merry little Christmas with her.
Under the Christmas Tree is a laugh-out-loud holiday rom-com packed with small-town Christmas cheer, forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers banter, and one very determined perfectionist who might just steal a grumpy Grinch’s heart. Perfect for fans of second chances, opposites attract romance, grumpy sunshine, and the magic of mistletoe.
