I downloaded a copy of this free short story on 21st December 2021 but have absolutely no idea where I found it. It must have appealed to me at the time I found it. However, it's another short story which has been buried under the weight of so very many titles!
I would like to thank the author, Elizabeth Grey for the free copy of her story, which I understand sits between Books #2 and #3 in Ms Grey's The Agency series - which of course I have not read!
Thanks to the #20BooksOfSummer2025 reading challenge, Perfect Christmas has resurfaced and below I offer a short review.

Thanks to the #20BooksOfSummer2025 reading challenge, Perfect Christmas has resurfaced and below I offer a short review.
The blurb:
Perfect ChristmasViolet Archer has never looked forward to a Christmas more. She’s got a lot to celebrate: after a whirlwind year of secrets, lies and heartache, she gets to spend this festive season as the fiancĂ©e of her best friend (and boss), Ethan Fraser. Everything’s going to be wonderful. Isn’t it?
Will Violet get the quiet, cosy and totally loved-up Christmas of her dreams? Between one extremely irate CEO, two warring best friends, and a temporarily homeless and implausibly half-dressed German, Violet’s vision of festive bliss seems to be melting away faster than Frosty the Snowman on a sunbed…
NB - This is a Short Story in the Agency Series. It features between Book 2 (It's Complicated) and Book 3 (Second Chance).
The Agency series is based in London and set in the exciting world of advertising. Following the intertwined lives of a group of kickass career women, the series is a heartwarming mix of angsty romance and laugh-out-loud humour. Each book is numbered chronologically in the series, but every title is a complete story in its own right.
FRIENDLY NOTE: All of Elizabeth’s books feature realistic characters who do things real people do (like have sex) and say things real people say (like drop f-bombs).

Romcom
My thoughts:
This short story sits between books two and three in The Agency series and is the first story I've read in this seies and also from this author.
It was easy enough to follow without having read the previous books, but I rather wish I'd read them in order because I felt I was missing out on Violet and Ethan's backstory and an understanding of what makes Stella tick.
Nevertheless, I found it to be an interesting happy-ending story, where Violet gets the Christmas she deserves.
