Connor and Faith had a number of strikes against them. Connor is dealing with the aftermath of returning home after years in the service. Faith is reeling from a bad breakup. The one thing Connor has learned from enduring four years in a war zone fighting for his life, is that life is short. So nothing is going to stop him from getting what he wants. I liked Connor, he has a take charge personality but a fragile heart. Faith was more of a lost soul that needed to find its way. Jessica Lemmon has written the most wonderful holiday story. A Bad Boy for Christmas is about appreciating what's important and not sweating the little things. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
