Bad Luck, Fake Dating, and the Miracle I Didn’t Expect
Every December, the holidays find new ways to ruin her life.
Lost jobs. Broken plans. Public embarrassments that make great family stories and terrible memories. After one especially spectacular disaster, she’s done believing in holiday magic—or luck of any kind. This year, she’s surviving the season with one goal: keep her head down and get through it unscathed.
Then a desperate lie turns into a fake relationship.
What starts as a harmless arrangement—no feelings, no future, strictly temporary—quickly spirals into something far more complicated. Because pretending to be in love is dangerously easy when stolen glances linger too long, holiday traditions blur the lines, and the person beside her starts to feel like the safest place she’s ever known.
But bad luck doesn’t disappear just because love shows up.
As the season builds toward its most important moment, she’s forced to decide whether the holidays really are cursed—or if this time, the miracle she’s been avoiding might be the one thing she actually needs.
Heartwarming, emotional, and irresistibly cozy, Bad Luck, Fake Dating, and the Miracle I Didn’t Expect is a slow-burn holiday romance about second chances, unexpected love, and discovering that sometimes the best miracles arrive disguised as mistakes.
