You're a Mean One, Matthew Prince: Slow-Burn Gay Romance Full of Holiday Magic (Boy Meets Boy, 2)

Bring a little joy to the world? Not today, Santa.

Matthew Prince is young, wealthy, and notorious for living life like it's one big party -- until a PR disaster lands him in forced holiday exile. Now stuck in a picturesque town that feels like the North Pole's forgotten outpost, Matthew is determined to count down the days until his return to the city. But sharing close quarters with Hector Martinez -- the grumpy, gorgeous local who sees right through him -- changes everything. As sparks fly and a charity gala spirals toward disaster, Matthew must decide: will he cling to the person he was, or risk opening his heart to something real?

If you love Red, White & Royal Blue or Schitt's Creek, You're a Mean One, Matthew Prince delivers a laugh-out-loud, heart-squeezing holiday romance filled with snark, sweetness, and slow-burn chemistry. This festive LGBTQ+ romcom will charm fans of gay Christmas romance, small town holiday fiction, and feel-good love stories.

Make this holiday season unforgettable with a romance that will make your heart grow three sizes.

While part of a series, this book stands alone.

cute and super hallmark christmas-esque! some parts would read as cringey, cliche, or obvious in another book but i think just accepting this book for what it is actually just makes that all good-cheesy instead of bad! may have helped that i read this in dreary february so the cozy, cute vibes were quite appreciated.

3 stars in general, but 4 in the romance genre
