Cam, back from college for winter break, works through rekindled old feelings (and new) and a clash between his new college self and who he‘s always been at home. I almost bailed after 15 minutes but decided to stick it out just a bit longer and wound up enjoying it. Such a fun holiday romance! The characters all grew on me quickly, and it was great getting to slowly step into each of their lives. #LGBTQIA #Holidays

Kenyazero I also tapped into this for two Mr. Rime prompts (character dresses up, snowy setting) for #GottaCatchEmAll @PuddleJumper 10mo

A freshman home from college and thinking of dropping out after a rough first semester becomes an elf at the local mall, not knowing it also involves a competition with a big cash prize. If only he wasn't competing against a cute guy he may just be developing a crush on. This was a cute YA holiday romance and even inspired me to have a cookie party with friends for Christmas.

Just what I expected: mostly lighthearted/fun, despite understandable teen angst.
