TITLE: THE GRUMP WHO STOLE CHRISTMAS 

AUTHOR: ELLA FIELDS 

GENRE: ROMANCE 

RATING: ★★★★★

REVIEW: 

“Some burns were necessary to make others less painful.” 

If you love the Romance genre and you haven’t read Ella Fields, you absolutely need to. Every time I read her books it reminds me of why i love this genre so much.

The Grump Who Stole Summer is one of those books that makes me sad that these characters are not real. I need a Smith in my life. 😂

I absolutely loved this book. It is a second chance, enemies to lovers, romance. Smith and Alice make you want to believe that there really is someone out there made just for you, because even though their story is a rocky one, these two are so perfect together and meant to be.

I loved both Alice and Smith, but I really connected to Smiths character and really felt for him. I am so happy that it is dual pov and we get to see into Smiths pov. And as always Ella Fields beautiful way with words had me highlighting like crazy. I can’t wait to have my physical copy so I can tab everything. 

This book is the type of emotional read that will have you feeling everything along with the characters, the good and the bad, and will have you glued to the pages. I did not want this story to end. I love books that give me that feeling of never wanting to leave. 

The Grump Who Stole summer is an absolute must read for romance lovers.

SYNOPSIS:  

A grumpy bookstore recluse. A vibrant carefree socialite. The second chance neither of them saw coming…

USA Today bestselling author, Ella Fields, returns to contemporary romance with an all-new angsty enemies to lovers standalone.

I never meant to hurt her.

Okay, so that might be a lie. The truth is, I just... panicked.

My soul died when I was fourteen, and there was no reviving it. But when the one person who’d tried made headlines, got dumped by her Ivy League college, and was forced to work in my bookstore, I began to wonder if I needed it when my heart beat faster at just the sight of her.

I began to wonder if I’d been wrong to push her away three years ago, and if she was as I’d hoped and feared—different. If maybe, she could truly accept a guy like me.

All of me. Every vile, cruel, tattered piece.

First, I had to find out a few things.

Would she still smile and laugh when I said something acidic?

Would she still melt beneath the pads of my inexperienced fingers?

Did she still want me as much as I wanted her?

And finally, could she ever forgive an undeserving jerk like me?

Something told me I’d regret not finding out.

Told in dual POV, The Grump Who Stole Summer is a full-length standalone, enemies to lovers second chance romance. It contains some sensitive subject matter.
