Ohmygosh I loved this holiday rom-com so much! Fool Me Twice at Christmas by Camilla Isley may end up being my favorite holiday read of the year and I haven’t even made it to November yet. I smiled, I laughed, I couldn’t put it down.
Fool Me Twice at Christmas is Isley’s first book in her holiday romantic comedy series, but each one can be read as a standalone. And I may have already purchased the next one, A Christmas Caroline, which is inspired by A Christmas Carol. Fool Me Twice at Christmas is a second chance, fake-dating, only-one-bed romance set at Christmas. One might think, well that’s too many tropes in one book, but somehow Isley makes it work! This one is a fast, heart-warming ride.
From the first page, Isley had me fully committed. I had so much fun watching Chuck and Kate slowly unravel as their lies kept growing and they couldn’t seem to catch a break. But also knowing it’s what they needed to push them into admitting how they really felt about each other.
And what instigates this couple’s troubles? Their parents have been best friends for years, as well as being business partners, and Chuck and Kate’s joining of the families has been their parents ultimate dream since their kids were young. And so much of their relationship is tied into the success of the family business, a highly successful chocolate factory that is the talk of the town.
Watching how Chuck and Kate go from attempting to gently break the news to their parents that they are no longer a couple to being engaged was laugh-out-loud festive fun. Add this one to your holiday TBR!
