GRR Reviews A Whyte Christmas by Michele Brouder

Kate may act like she's enjoying the Holidays, with flashing Christmas tree earrings and a lot of (fake) cheer, but she's secretly grieving over a lot of things. Her father had passed away, her engagement is toast, and her copywriter career is kaput, as she'd been let go and rehired as the receptionist. Then she found that her ex (the one who cheated) was hired as the creative lead (instead of promoting the existing senior creative)  When the ad company's biggest client decided to come and micromanage, what can you do but smile and say "yessir"? // Gavin Whyte knew why this (incompetent) firm was picked to run the drug company's ad campaign... The owner is a cousin of boss's wife or something like that. But with his own promotion on the line, he'll babysit the campaign himself. He was a little surprised when the boss offered up Kate as his companion, to "show him the sights". But let's just say Kate is a bit of a klutz, and Gavin, with his blue eyes and Irish accent, is a panty melter. But Gavin doesn't really have time to woo Kate, and he's leaving eventually, right?

Oooh, nice mix of tropes and full character arcs for both main characters. Add a set of quirky characters and some old tropes (like the tone-deaf but "inspirational" boss, much like the one in Dilbert) and minions ready to backstab each other, and it's a good Holiday tale. 5/5
