Project Scrooge

 

Can Scrooge find love from a friendship gone cold?

Sanford Stone cut ties with his best friend, Natalie, in favor of the love of his life … a woman who ended up walking out on him just before Christmas. Six years later, Sanford can’t bring himself to celebrate Christ’s birth with any joy. Little does he know, his grandmother and her companions have dubbed him the Scrooge and intend to help him overcome his bitterness and find happiness again.

The only thing that has hurt Natalie Dunivan more than Sanford cutting her out of his life has been watching his long-held grudges slowly destroy the man she has always loved. Together with Ms. Carol, Natalie devises a plan to reach out to Sanford.

Sanford accepts his grandmother’s challenge to celebrate Christmas for 31 straight days, but he didn’t count on her plan involving Natalie. Can his family and friends help their Scrooge see the error of his ways, or will Natalie’s presence only make things worse?

My thoughts: This is such a delightful, modern day spin on The Christmas Carol that was a lot of fun to read through! I enjoyed Ms. Carol, as she and her friends present tasks for Sanford to do. I loved the message of the story, it's one that I have been thinking on for a while, to not hold on to grudges. 

This is such a fun retelling of a classic story. I enjoyed the characters and the plot whole heartedly!

I received this book from Celebrate Lit. This is my honest review.
