All I Want for Christmas is Pooch Novel

Brady Rogers, the new city planner for Holiday Hills, arrives expecting a town brimming with Christmas spirit. Instead, he discovers that budget cuts have forced the cancellation of many holiday traditions. When a charming dog named Pooch steals his scarf, it leads Brady to Noelle Snow, who runs the local animal shelter. Together, they share a vision to restore the town's Christmas celebrations and reputation. Noelle is passionate about her no-kill shelter but struggles financially to keep it operational. Meeting Brady through Pooch offers her a potential path forward—an opportunity to secure funds for the shelter while simultaneously reviving the town's holiday spirit. As they work together toward these goals, an unexpected romance begins to blossom between them. However, their plans face a significant obstacle when the town's mayor proposes a different approach to the budget allocation. This conflict threatens not only their collaborative efforts but also the relationship developing between Brady and Noelle. With their vision at stake and their connection tested, the question remains whether the bond they share—and the little dog who brought them together—will be strong enough to overcome the challenge ahead.
