The Christmas Fix
Audible Audiobook
– Unabridged
She'll save Christmas just to spite him....
When a late season hurricane hits Merry, Connecticut, city manager and single dad Noah Yates has to inform the already devastated residents that there won't be a Christmas Festival this year. No festival means no tourism dollars. A disaster of epic proportions for his hometown.
But when home renovation expert slash smoking hot reality TV star Catalina King shows up with a camera crew and a budget big enough to put the town back together again, Noah balks. Hard. The last time Cat was in town she stirred up trouble everywhere she went. (Residents are still talking about the town's first and only bar fight.)
Noah doesn't need a TV diva capitalizing on his town's tragedy or filling his daughter's head with glitz and glam.
Cat is ready and willing to put Merry back in Christmas mode with a holiday special that will leave everyone believing in miracles and get her friends back in the home they love. But there's one big problem standing in her way. And his name is Noah Yates. He's wrong about her and she can't wait to prove it. Ring those jingle bells because it's on.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2017If you’ve read Mr. Fixer Upper (and if you haven’t, what on earth are you waiting for?!?!), you probably already love Cat King. I know I did. As soon as I finished Mr. Fixer Upper, I had a list of characters I was hoping for more from. Cat was at the top. She was so full of life. She worked hard and played just as hard. She stood up for what she believed in. She was a great friend and loved her family dearly. How much more could you ask for in a character? I loved Cat King.
So, Lucy Score is fantastic. She heard the outcry of her fans and the whispers (okay, it’s Cat...they were probably shouts) from Cat, and The Christmas Fix was born. Okay, I’m not positive exactly how this happened, but this is how I like to imagine it. Either way, Lucy gave us The Christmas Fix, an amazing enemies-to-lovers Christmas story, and it is perfect. I thought I loved Cat King before, but now I am completely enamored. I am in awe of this woman. Everything I liked about her before is magnified by a million, but there is also this other side to her that we didn’t get to see in Mr. Fixer Upper. This side that loves so hard, cares so deeply, and turns to mush only at the most perfect of moments. She is a complete and total rockstar. She still stands up for women’s rights, works herself harder than anyone else, and enjoys having a good time, but watching her fall in love is truly something special.
And Noah, oh Noah. Noah may seem like a complete jerk in the beginning (remember, this is enemies-to-lovers, and I already loved Cat), but there is just something about him. He is so noble. Even when he is completely wrong, he has good intentions. He is a good, sensible guy who loves his daughter and his town. He wants to protect both from anything that could harm them. Unfortunately, he believes Cat King falls into that category. However, Cat being Cat is determined to prove him wrong. As the story unfolds, you fall further and further in love with Noah.
I absolutely love these two together. The balance they found with one another was incredible. Noah needs Cat to bring him out of his shell and really live. He needs her to show him what fun really is. And Noah is the stability and steadfast support Cat needs in her crazy life. And the chemistry, oh my goodness the chemistry. These two are completely off the charts. Their banter is fantastic. Cat says what she thinks and doesn’t hold back which causes (and/or ends) some fantastic arguments. And their love is even more explosive than their hate. While you have to wait for them to get there, it is completely worth it! The tension builds until it boils over in perfection.
What more could you want, right? Well, in true Lucy Score fashion, this book brings all the feels. The town of Merry really becomes a character of its own with the wonderful people and traditions it holds dear. Watching the town come together in this time of need is amazing. The residents are unique and wonderful. The way they support one another is heartwarming. The way they take in Cat and her crew is extraordinary. I seriously want to move there...who wouldn’t?
This book was beautifully written. The symbolism is subtle and truly amazing, the characters are so real and complex, and seriously all the feels are there without it being over the top. There are very few authors that can include humor, love, witty banter, and so much emotion in the same book naturally, but this book truly has it all. I can’t recommend it enough.
What are you still doing here? Put your time to good use and one click now! This is a book you don’t want to miss!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2024This book has the perfect recipe for holiday charm! While the story started a little slow, once it picked up, I was all in.
The sparks between Noah, the protective single dad, and Cat, the fiery reality TV star, brought just the right amount of angst and tension to keep me hooked. Their banter was delightful, their chemistry undeniable, and their growth together was the icing on this Christmas cookie.
The small-town setting of Merry, Connecticut, was so vivid, and the festive spirit was palpable as Cat worked to bring the Christmas Festival back to life. Throw in the heartwarming relationship between Noah and his daughter, and you’ve got a holiday read that's equal parts cozy and swoony.
If you’re looking for a story full of redemption, festive feels, and just the right dash of enemies-to-lovers spice, this is your fix! 🎄✨
- Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2024I loved this book! It was incredibly cute and gave me all the warm and fuzzy feelings, combined with just the right amount of spice. The dialogue and banter between the characters were excellent, making it a delightful read. It's definitely a great spicy holiday read that kept me hooked from start to finish!
One of many exchanges that I loved without spoilers is :
“It seems like the only time she wants to talk is after—”
“Shut the f*** up, Yates! Are you trying to get me to throw you through the window?”
Overall, this story is a perfect blend of humor, romance, and festive cheer that I would highly recommend!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2023I liked this story, but I felt like it was slow and hard to get into. I felt the same about the other Lucy Score (Things We Never Got Over) book I read though, so it might just be a writing style I don’t vibe with. I liked the premise and plot and the overall story arch. I LOVED the banter with the two main characters, Noah and Cat. I absolutely adored Noah. When you get to the spicy scenes, they’re very well done and satisfying. I enjoyed the little town of Merry. I did have to force myself to get through the first 1/3, but by the time I got to about 35% complete, it picked up and had drawn me in to where I wanted to finish it. I listened to this on audio book, and to be honest, the narrator really was hard for me to handle. Her male and other character voices were great, but her as Cat was grating and just not for me. The voice came off as snobby and obnoxious to me, and that’s the opposite of the characteristics of the FMC. Five star books are best books of the year, life changing. Four star is unbelievable read but not absolutely favorite. Three star are books I like but wouldn’t read again and not as memorable. Two star are ok but aren’t my favorite. One star books I dislike or couldn’t finish.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2024Perfect Christmas read with Hallmark feels but on the dirty side!!

-Single Dad
-Enemies-to-Lovers
-Small Town
This book was adorable. FMC, Cat, is aTV celebrity that uses her status for good. MMC,Noah, is the manager of the small town Merry, CT. Cat is drawn to Merry because of a remodel she did previously and when a hurricane dumps a huge amount of rain that leads to extensive flooding she wants to help.
Noah is against the idea of a reality star coming in and victimizing his town but Cat doesn’t take no for an answer. Their banter is top tier. Noah’s filthy mouth is amazing. Both characters have good growth during the book. Overall a good read that isn’t overly Christmas oriented with good smutty scenes. Oh, his daughter Sara 100% the main character 🤣

- Romance-reader71Reviewed in Australia on December 19, 2023
5.0 out of 5 stars Cat and Noah’s story grabbed me from the start.
His small town is decimated by a late season storm. He is out in the midst of the flooding. She saves him and others while there to check on her friends and get footage to pitch a Christmas Special for her home renovation show.
The show goes ahead and the two butt heads in town a lot. But as progress happens, their relationship thaws and then heats.
I couldn’t put it down and was grateful for the audio download I added so I could continue to listen while I “adulted”. The alternating reading and listening format works well while getting stupid work done. 🤪

- SelinaReviewed in Sweden on December 22, 2022
1.0 out of 5 stars This became a DNF
I was so excited for this book! I love “Things we never got over” by Luce and was expecting a great book, unfortunately this became a DNF (Did not finish). I’ve read about 130 pages and it was so slow, I just didn’t have any motivation finishing this book. Also, I’m kind of disappointed in the covers the author uses for some of her books. TWNGO has a beautiful cover and so will TWHFDD when it releases (I’m still very much exited for that). Might be a good book, but it was so slow I didn’t even want to continue reading:(
- KikaReviewed in Brazil on July 1, 2021
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect balance
This story balances perfectly romance, humor and drama - which thankfully was not too dramatic - life is already too dramatic why would I be looking for drama in my relaxation time? Most characters were really interesting, but the main characters were awesome! I certainly recommend.
