About this listen

What if the love of your life was your best friend's girlfriend, and you were the one that set them up?

When 30-year-old Nick loses his prestigious job at a city law firm, he is forced to grudgingly accept work as a Santa at a local Christmas grotto.

There he meets five-year-old Alfie, and all Alfie wants for Christmas is for his mum to be happy again. She has been sad ever since his dad died three years ago. Moved by the boy's selfless wish, Nick arranges a date between Alfie's mum, Sarah, and his best friend, Matt.

However, as Sarah and Alfie become an integral part of their lives, Nick soon realises that happiness for Sarah and Matt might mean heartbreak for himself.

A hilarious and heartwarming Christmas romance for fans of Beth O'Leary's The Flatshare and Marian Keyes' Grown Ups.

I really liked this story and the love in all forms... Friends, family, relationships...
The story and characters were really well developed, which helped in feeling a connection. I really felt for Nick and his situation, but have so much respect for him putting his friendship first.
Brilliant performance by Sam Alexander, great character range!

A sweet story of all love...

I loved this story and the narrator was fantastic. It was very refreshing having a male narrator.
This is a new author to me and I will be looking out for more of her books.

loved this!

I loved listening to this warm fuzzy Christmas novel from a man's perspective. I actually loved all of the book and the narrator was really good. I just wish it was longer than 6 hours.
In this book you couldn't actually see a happy ending without Nick losing his best friend who is family to him.
I would definitely recommend this lovely festive story

Not sure I've ever read a chicklit narrated by a man?! This book was great, lovely story, not too long, elements of Christmas. Laugh out loud moments. Could definitely see it being made into a film...

LOVED IT!!!

I would recommend this as an entertaining and heart warming piece of escapism. would read other books by the author but limited budget prevents at present.

well written, humourous and not maudlin. how refreshing for a novel in this genre.
