What Happens At Christmas
by Victoria Alexander
This story was so ridiculous as to be brilliant, much like the characters.
Camille wants to marry a prince, so she makes cooks up a scheme to hire a fake family to impress a prince for Christmas. What happens from there can best be described as a melodrama. My imagination was not willing to stretch to accommodate the story line, and yet, with each addition of absurdity, I found myself howling with laughter. At the heart of it all was a tender romance nearly lost to pride and arrogance.
The story is about a Christmas farce, and the story itself resembles a farce, but it is keenly written and ultimately entertaining.
