I am a huge fan of Jessica Lemmon's writing. Throw in a good Christmas story along with Jessica's writing and I am hooked for sure! This one will not leave you disappointed at all for a good quick read.

Stefanie has done some things that have caused her brother's political career to take a hit. Now she must do something drastic to try and make things better. Stefanie's family has money but she is not your typical spoiled rich girl. She actually has a really big heart. When Stefanie has what her family thinks is a girls weekend trip, her brother is determined to keep her under lock and key so that she doesn't have another chance to screw things up for him. When Stefanie throws a fit, the only way her brother agrees to her going is if his security guy, best friend and family friend Emmett goes with her.

Stefanie and Emmett set off on their journey to the getaway, only Stefanie has to tell him about the real reason for her trip and that is a benefit for less fortunate families that she puts together. While on the way, Stefanie comes up with a brilliant plan to get everyone off her back and that is to have Emmett agree to marry her at a Christmas wedding with just the two of them. They will get an annulment as soon as everything blows over and it will all be back to normal for everyone, unless...

I do not want to give any spoilers to this story because it is a really good one that you will get caught up in for sure. I think Jessica Lemmon did a great job with this and made it a magical Christmas story for sure. Highly recommend!

Jessica Lemmon is a star! She writes fun and fast romances. Perfect for the busy holiday season! The characters and plot are cute, but not too cliche.

There was one thing I didn't like about this book, and one thing only- the fact that I'm done with it and have to wait for another Jessica Lemmon book to be released! Simply put, I just enjoy her writing and A Christmas Proposition didn't let me down. You walk away feeling like you really know these characters because the development of each one just simply flows much like how you would get to know a new friend. We got a hint of these characters in previous books, and you just knew they had a great story to be told. Quick read that will make popcorn for dinner acceptable when you just need to find out how their story ends. In other words, you'll love it! #AchristmasProposition #NetGalley

A not-so-spoiled rich girl and her brother’s bodyguard/best friend in a fake marriage? Yes, please. I was waiting for these two and it definitely didn’t disappoint. Loved it!

Stefanie came up with a plan after a scandal she caused to save her brother's political career. Emmett Keaton seems to be the solution to her problem. He has always been off-limits, but she's changing the rules. They decide to get married fast to save Stefanie brother's career.... but will this marriage cause another scandal or can it become real.

Great story line, easy to follow with a great flow. I was able to get into the story and fell in love with the characters. Perfect romance!

A Christmas Proposition is a great holiday romance. Stefanie's family is prominent and the paparazzi always have their eye on her. When an ex goes to the tabloids, she needs to do something to fix her reputation. Emmett is her brother's bodyguard and best friend. He's admired Stefanie from afar but being from the wrong side of the tracks he knows he's not good enough for her. She thought he just didn't like her. So, when Stefanie asks him for help, it's a big shock and the start of something wonderful. Loved it!

Usually I love Jessica Lemmon stories but this was kinda disapointing. At first I was very confused because I was not sure whose viewpoint I was reading and who was the male lead in this story and then I got so confused by all the different male characters and figuring out who was who.

- Chase is the Mayor, he is Stephanie's brother and Emett's bestie
- Emmett is Chase, the Mayor's best friend, security detail, campaign manager I think, and the male lead in the story
- Blake is the former Mayor's son who had a one night mistake with Stephanie and in the story tries to make it out that he and Stef are together and getting engaged.

So not to humiate her family Stef decides to get married to escape the rumors Blake starts. She decides to marry Emett who she has a non relationship and who she has never even kissed because? and this is where the story lost me - because she wants to stop Blake's rumors. It was a crazy reason to get married and especially to someone she doesn't like. It just made zero sense.

To be honest I read 40% of the story and gave up it just seemed so ridiculous. I mean who marries because someone insinuates that you are dating them. The marriage thing was just so dumb I could not understand it and ruined the story for me.
