  Blurb: 

  My name is Jake Sheppard and I’m ambivalent about Christmas and the Christmas-themed town I grew up in. But when I find out my late uncle left me an old barn and acres of land, the decision to return home to build my dream golf course is an easy one.   Imagine my surprise when I arrive and find out I have a squatter.   An incredibly sexy squatter, with wavy blonde hair, green eyes, a free spirit… and a herd of goats.   Lexi hates my guts. Apparently evicting a non-paying non-tenant and her goats weeks before Christmas is grounds for war.   Except Lexi’s version of war includes flinging her clothing at me and, as it turns out, I might be in way over my head with this girl…    


Review:


3 stars
***

 One Night with a Nutcracker was another fun addition to the Reindeer Falls series, though I didn't quite enjoy it as much as the previous books. This is Jake and Sutton's story. Sutton is a goat farmer who lives in an airstream and makes goat milk soap and other products to sell. Jake has inherited his uncle's land, which happens to be where Sutton has been "squatting" and living in her airstream trailer for years. He comes back to his hometown to build a golf course on his newly inherited land. Sutton doesn't seem to understand why she can't keep living on property she doesn't own and fights with him about it. Still, there is an attraction, so romance, and, eventually, compromise ensues.
I don't know how long this book was, but it felt shorter and not as much of a complete story. There is no talk of love at all. Still, I did enjoy the story in general. I felt it had potential, but never quite got there for me. I'm not a huge fan of the enemies to lovers trope, so that may have affected my enjoyment. I didn't find the book as cute, sweet or Christmassy as the previous books. But it was still an easy, quick read. I enjoyed the book in general and I still really like this series. I look forward to more from the Reindeer Falls gang!
