This Christmas, the snow's really gonna hit the fan when one teen's birthday battle goes hilariously awry. . .
College-freshman Quintin Grant usually dreads the holiday season, spent with the staff while his parents jet off to Monaco. When he’s invited home for an old-fashioned Christmas with his roommate’s family, Quintin can’t believe his good luck. Until he meets Nick’s sister and ends up covered in an entire sack of flour…
For a seventeen-year-old girl who hates her Christmas name and Christmas birthday with all the power of a thousand fiery suns, spending this year without her cuckoo-for-Christmas parents battling over points in the town’s silly Holiday Spirit Awards is Noelle Garland’s idea of the best birthday ever…or would have been if Nick hadn’t brought his roommate home.
Oh, holy night, are you kidding me?
As soon as Elle’s parents learn Quintin’s never had a traditional Christmas, they forget their birthday promise and sign up for every event in the Awards competition…and Elle’s Operation Christmas Strike is born. Only…something goes wrong. Instead of spoiling things, Elle’s strike backfires in spectacular and embarrassing ways and she soon finds herself competing for not just the top prize, but for Quintin, who pulls off a miracle of his own…a birthday she’ll never forget.
