This is currently a "Read Now" on NetGalley.

Natalie and Dean, who are done with serious relationships forever (each for different reasons), spend the end of every year Christmas party crashing to get them through the holiday season. Free food, free booze, lots of single lonely people. Dean's usual wing man is his brother, Jeffrey. Natalie had her BFF and roommate Rose. This year however, both sidekicks are recently engaged (not to each other) so Dean and Natalie both decide to crash solo this year. Once they meet and decide it's too risky to have two separate crashers at each party, the prank war begins.

I really enjoyed this one. I even laughed out loud a few times. "Dean stood over the brass torture device, his jaw clenched with determination. There was no way this thing was going to get a chance at it again. He was an adult. Thirty years old. This was not going to beat him. The hot water tap groaned a protest when he turned it on and the cold one did the same. He dropped in a cupcake thing that one of the maids had assured him was better than a bubble bath and cursed to himself when he saw it dissolve, turning the water pale pink and glitter. He had to do something manly after this...like go out hunting or wrestle a bear. He couldn't think of anything more emasculating than a glittery bubble bath..." I was laughing this entire scene because the way he was thinking is probably completely accurate of a male mind as far as bubble baths go.

There was a plot revealed toward the end of the book that I figured out pretty early on. I was hoping I'd be wrong, but I wasn't. So it wasn't very original I suppose. But other than that the story flowed well. The romance seemed pretty realistic and it didn't feel rushed like Christmas romance books sometimes tend to be. I think I will check out more stuff by Aimee Duffy.
