My mom is sick, I'm broke, and I have to don elf ears and leggings for a paycheck. Then, a new Santa came to town. One with washboard abs and enough arrogance to make me want to kick him back to the North Pole. To top it all off, I'm pretty sure he shows up to work drunk. At best, he'll make my job harder than it has to be. At worst, he'll ruin Christmas for the town's children. So excuse me for saying bah-freakin'-humbug.

Download or read book A Right to Be Merry written by Mother Mary Francis and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2001-09-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÊCan life really be "merry" inside a Poor Clare cloister? This happy book reveals the challenges, cares and joys of that cloistered life from an "insiders" view. The poet's cry, "O world, I cannot hold you close enough!" is the heart's cry of the enclosed contemplative. No one who has not lived in a cloister can fully understand just how intertwined are the lives of cloistered nuns. Their hearts may be wide as the universe and bottomless as eternity, but the practical details of their living are boxed up into the small area within the enclosure walls. Cloistered nuns rub souls as well as elbows all their lives, and if they do not step out of themselves to get a true perspective, they can become small-souled and petty and remain immature children all their lives long. But, as Mother Mary Francis points out, they also have "as great a right to be merry as any lady in the world." Nor is merriment all. "Hidden away from the glare and noise of worldly living," Mother Mary Francis writes, "we are enclosed in the womb of holy Church. I walk down the cloisters, and my heart moves to a single tune: Lord, it is good, so good to be here!"

What’s worse than losing the files to your boss’s pet project? Finding out your ex-best friend is marrying your ex-boyfriend. Single and unemployed is not how I’d expected to spend the holidays, so I stick around the office in a sea of tissues and self regret. But when an unlikely turn of events leads to my boss’s interest in securing an insta-fiancé, it turns out he still has a use for me. That’s right—my tall, muscular, obnoxiously sexy boss asked me to marry him. Now, I’m fake engaged to one of the world’s most eligible bachelors, showing up in supermarket tabloids and at premiere restaurants. It’s a match made in desperation, but I can’t deny it’s genius, and thanks to this fiasco, I don’t look like such a loser to my exes. He’s smooth as fine wine as I bumble for the cameras. I offer an endless stream of apologies, but it turns out my carelessness plays straight into Roman’s plan. But as calculating as he is, neither of us could have foreseen the consequences of our coupling—what happens when fake feelings turn real?
