christmas family holiday humor romance

Dani Finklemeier has decided to write a self-help book about how to take over the world, but she's not sure where to start. After all, she's only seventeen and looking for a better way to make money than babysitting. She buys a self-help book that promises to teach her how to write a self-help book in the hope of getting the job done. 

Not that it'll be easy to get any work done this holiday season. Her family is staying at the house for Christmas, and fights break out almost immediately. Dani also has to deal with the fallout from an unexpected kiss with her best friend Seth and the feelings that go along with it. On edge around her family and unsure how to interact with the one person she's trusted with everything in the past, she can only take what inspiration she can from the crazy circumstances surrounding her and see what happens. 

One way or another, it should be an interesting holiday.All Rights Reserved

That's how long it's been since Dan and Phil made the decision to give Ellie away to another family rather than adopt her themselves. During those eleven months, everything has fallen apart one after another. Phil is rarely ever home for an extended amount of time, leaving Dan depressed because of it. Along with that, both of them feel heavy regret about giving Ellie away. Not a day goes by where the few memories they made with her race through their minds, not a day goes by where those blonde curls and that bright smile don't haunt their memories, and not a day goes by where they both wish that they could go back in time and make things right. Needless to say, Dan and Phil's marriage is another thing that is in turmoil. Countless verbal fights, disagreements over insignificant things that turned into fights, and even one incident that one nearly struck the other have put quite a strain on their marriage, and every single day, divorce becomes even more imminent. After all, could you even call two people married if they haven't slept in the same bed, hugged, kissed, and even held hands in months? Then, one night, while Phil is yet again not home, Dan decides that he's had enough. Packing up his things and journeying into the London winter cold with the goal of never stopping traveling around until he finds Ellie in order to beg for forgiveness, even though he knows that neither he nor Phil deserve it, and get her back once and for all, the British native only takes a suitcase's worth of stuff and leaves everything else behind, even his wedding ring. However, as Dan is about to find out, sometimes the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
