Join Lindsey and friends for great chats, fun and festivities to celebrate Christmas Fling. Special guests to be announced!

Is a fake boyfriend really just for Christmas?

One fake romance. One magical Christmas. One chance to fall in love.

Laura was all set for a quiet solo Christmas – just her, a bottle of wine, and flat-sitting for a stranger. But when the stranger’s parents mistake her for his mystery girlfriend, she’s swept off to the snowy Scottish Highlands with Callum and his whole family. Between the cosy sleeper train, charming pubs and breathtaking views, this could be the no-strings attached Christmas of Laura’s dreams. But stranger Callum is hot, hilarious and their ‘fake’ chemistry is off the charts. So is this just a Christmas fling? Or the start of something more?

Lindsey Kelk is a Sunday Times bestselling author, podcaster and internet oversharer. Born and brought up in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, she worked in London as a children's editor before writing her first book, I Heart New York, and moving to Brooklyn. Lindsey's novels include the I Heart series, The Christmas Wish and Love Story, as well as her YA fantasy debut, The Bell Witches. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband.

The Book & Ticket bundle includes a copy of Christmas Fling, for collection on the night, and an exclusive pin badge.
