Scrooge: a Billionaire Christmas Story

What does it take to ruin Christmas? One Scrooge of a billionaire, a fake diamond ring and a deep family secret. The holiday season has always been magical for me, especially at my toy store. Tucker Toys is a New York institution, where every twinkling light and festive melody brings joy to children and families alike.But my landlord, the notorious grumpy billionaire Alexander Jackson, has increased the rent to a level that’s crippling. I now understand why they nickname him Scrooge, because my family is facing financial ruin and he doesn’t care. Not one bit.But then Alexander presents me with an offer I can’t refuse: be his fake fiancée for the season, and he’ll let me keep my store. I’m skeptical, but desperate times call for desperate measures and I owe it to my family.What starts as a business arrangement quickly becomes something more. Alexander’s touch is electric, and his kisses are dangerously real. As we navigate this pretend engagement amidst the holiday chaos and increased media scrutiny, I can’t ignore the growing feelings that blur the lines between make-believe and reality.This Christmas was destined to destroy me, but I might find that the greatest gift isn’t saving my store, but discovering a love that feels as magical as the season itself.
