About this audiobook

From the bestselling author of Younger Than Springtime.
 
“Happy families are all alike,” said Tolstoy, and the O’Malleys are one of the happiest, if slightly crazy, families in current fiction. A Christmas Wedding continues the saga of Chucky, the youngest son, who wants to live the quiet life of an accountant and raise a nice Catholic family. Fate, of course, has other plans for Chucky, in the person of the beautiful Rosemarie, his off-again, on-again nemesis from the time he saved her life when he was a young man.

Thrown out of Notre Dame on trumped-up charges, Chucky ends up going to the University of Chicago. The only problem: His lifelong enemy Rosemarie is a fellow student. They decide to be “just friends,” and while they battle with each other, “just friends” turns into something neither of them expected.
