Christmas Trees and Weak Knees

"Christmas Trees & Weak Knees is your newest, swoony Christmas romance! Katrina Emmel has penned an adorable and cozy story about Paisley and Kash, who find themselves in romantic concert—figurative and literal—despite their differences. Readers won’t spot a more musical duo, and one that not only finds love in one another, but with themselves as well. Happy holidays to us indeed!"
