“Miss Congeniality meets a Christmas romance? This book has all of my favorite things. The Santa Claus Con is equal parts witty, chaotic, and fun! Jessen wrote the perfect holiday romance that will keep you on your toes.”–Joss Richard, International bestselling author of It’s Different This Time
“If you’re looking for a Christmas rom-com with a side of suspense, The Santa Con delivers! It has all the holiday hijinks, a festive New York City backdrop, and undercover FBI agents disguised as Santa and his elf that gave me major Miss Congeniality vibes. Such a fun holiday escape!”–Natalie Walters, bestselling author of Spies, Lies, & Alibis
“Lauren Kung Jessen is already one of my favourite romcom authors and this year she’s exploded onto Santa’s big scene with an action packed, swoony, holiday romance that deserves to be on everyone’s Christmas list! The Santa Claus Con is fast paced and thrilling, with the kind of multifaceted characters that I have come to expect from Lauren’s writing, alongside a love story that made me smile dreamily. An absolute festive treat!”–Jenny Bayliss, author of The Little Shop of Merry and Bright
“What’s hilarious, dangerous, mildly unhinged, and impossible to put down? The Santa Claus Con! With sharp banter, real suspense, holiday chaos, and two FBI agents I would happily follow down a chimney into absolute disaster, this book had me hooked like an overcommitted tree ornament. Jessen absolutely sleighed.”–Melissa R. Collings, award-winning author of The Love Operation
