Release Blast & Review for The Grump by Layla Hagen

THE GRUMP

Layla Hagen

Release Date: December 6

Available in Kindle Unlimited!

I love my job. So when a grumpy grouch wants to shut us down, I’m ready for the fight of my life.

I was heading for serious career burnout until my dream job came true. Making pralines for a living has been the best thing that’s ever happened to me. So it comes as quite a shock when I find out that the owner wants to shut down the LeBlanc-Broussard confectionery because it’s not profitable.

My hope is that I can win him over. Once he realizes how integral the confectionery is to the city, to the very makeup of New Orleans he’s bound to agree, right?

Wrong.

Xander LeBlanc is a grump, and it’s questionable whether he has a heart at all! Though I’m ashamed to admit I was blindsided by how hot he is — definitely a 10+. Unfortunately, his personality is a zero. All he’s concerned about are profits and not the charitable work the business is known for.

But suddenly, Xander begins to show up at various events we sponsor. When he arrives at the children’s hospital where I hand out treats during the holiday season, I see an entirely new side to him when he starts playing The Grinch for the kids! When he takes me home later that evening things between us escalate. He confesses that he's been attracted to me from day one and let’s just say, the man has hot skills in bed.

But the inevitable closing of the confectionary still weighs heavy on my mind and I don’t know if I can separate the two. Can I love a man who wants to take away the only joy I have in life? But the bigger question is…

Can I melt the ice around his heart and find my way inside it for longer than a few nights?

We loved this holiday-themed story from cover to cover. It was fun, flirty, and sexy, grumpy versus pure sunshine, filled with meddling grandmothers and brothers who love to give you a good ribbing and teasing where needed.

Bailey and Xander could not be more different, yet they clicked so perfectly. Bailey calls him the Grinch, and he calls her baby. Bailey was a character we loved from the moment we met her. She is pure-hearted and full of sunshine. Always about positive vibes, she spreads her kindness and love wherever she goes. Even when Bailey is stressed and exhausted, she still spreads her holiday cheer and positive vibes.

Xander is the enemy as Bailey sees him but, the more time they spend together there is a connection there that will not be denied. For Xander Bailey sends the man all off-kilter, he lusting after the woman panting really but, we felt that he was just drawn to her goodness and kindness as she puts her heart and soul into everything she makes and does. A very special woman who stole his heart from the moment they met. We loved Xander as well especially the special relationship he had with his niece so many heart-melting moments.

This is a story that warms your heart and gives you all those feelings you love and when love is found and comes about in the mist most dire of situations it makes things even more special. This story was filled with lots of Holiday Cheer!
