A Curvy Wonderland
What happens when the Christmas-loving curvy girl is forced to volunteer for a Christmas charity with the grumpiest guy in a town?
I’m babysitting two little girls while their mom works and their dad’s deployed. Their mom asked me to keep them busy serving others so they don’t have time to miss their dad. I’m all for it… until I realize the charity she signed us up for is managed by the Scrooge-iest guy in town.
You’d think someone who’s grown up selling Christmas trees with a giant, fluffy dog named Bauble would have a little more holiday spirit but no such luck. His parents put him in charge of the project to try boosting his mood.
At first, I’m not sure their plan is working, but once I see his gentler side with the girls, I start falling for him, even though I know we’re more opposite than peppermint and garlic.
As he opens up to me, I have to wonder… Does all the mistletoe in town have my head coming up with make-believe stories that will never come true? Is he being nice just for the girls? Or could he be thawing his heart for me too?

A curvy wonderland is a cute YA small town rom-com featuring Holly and Eldan. Holly and Eldan couldn't be more different; while Holly loves Christmas, Eldan dislikes Christmas despite the fact that his parents own the town's Christmas tree farm. This year, Eldan's mom organized a giving tree event and asked Eldan to work the event. Holly volunteers at the giving tree event and as they spend more time they get to know each other, eventually finding out the real reason why Christmas is not Eldan's favorite holiday.
It's a quick and entertaining holiday read; can't wait to read more from Kelsie Stelting.

Something to know about me is I am a Hallmark Christmas movie gal to the extreme, so to read not one but three stories with those kind of vibes that features a curvy girl; I am freaking obsessed! Garland, Maine is a place of my dreams. As you can imagine, everything is Christmas themed from Mistletoe Hill to Cider Center, Scrooge’s Diner, Cocoa Corner, Jingles, The Nutcracker shop and Fall La La La La skating rink. These books were the perfect Christmas magic happily ever after’s. I love that Kelsie writes about plus sized girls who get the cute guys. Thank you, Kelsie, for writing such uplifting, body positivity books. ❤️
𝗔 𝗖𝘂𝗿𝘃𝘆 𝗪𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 features Eldan, a grumpy guy (think the Grinch) who is tasked with running a giving tree to help the community out and Holly, a sunshiney gal who babysits two adorable girls over the holiday. The girls’ dad isn’t able to make it home for Christmas so to help them focus on something else, they join in on the giving tree to help others out. You might just get to see Eldan’s heart grow three sizes!

Absolutely adored this trilogy of little novellas. Kelsie has a way of telling the most beautiful heartfelt stories. They sucked me right in. These are perfect palate cleansers for this season. No spice, these are YA and I couldn’t stop reading these. Hallmark vibes, body positivity, loving yourself while finding your HEA. Guaranteed to give your heart a squeeze! Totally recommend it!! Curvy girls rule!

This was the cutest holiday romance read. I absolutely loved the small town of Garland, and all of the charm and holiday spirit. The storyline was super cute and I loved seeing Holly and Eldan’s relationship develop.

The cutest little way to start the festive season. The storyline was very cute and Christmas themed and the characters were the perfect mixture of grumpy/sunshine meaning there is something for everyone.
Favourite character: Eldan - I am also a bit of a Scrooge about Christmas but love to make it fun for the people around me! Adored his background story and his adorable emotional support dog Bob (Bauble). His redemption arc was also kinda perfect and you’d struggle not to have a soft spot for him after it!
This book is the perfect Christmas read for anyone wanting a short YA romance to give you that festive feeling I just wish it could have been longer! Thankfully there are two more books in the same series to dive straight into 😁

Holly is joy and happiness she is kindness and hope. Eldan has had trauma and fears being left behind especially around Christmas.
As Holly and the two little girls she takes care of help Eldan with the giving tree charity his mom has insisted he run this season they both discover that words, wishes, and feelings are all things that often need great care, but they also can bring you the greatest joy when you can be brave enough to share them with others. I really loved this story with Eldan's introverted yet caring nature and Holly's outgoing yet calming kind presence. They really complemented each other in the best way.

3.5⭐️
Cute, Hallmark-y, YA Christmas novella. Curvy girl representation and lots of holiday activities! I enjoyed it and read it in an hour and a half. Loved the charitable acts throughout and the message about gratitude and empathy. Lots of typos that really nagged me. Felt very surface-level and had minimal romantic tension, but that’s understandable because it was only 150 pages.

this was such a cute light-hearted set of Christmas novellas that are quick & easy reads. theyre fluff books that are good feel good reads for the holidays. the books follow a group of three best friends, starting at a scene where they make a wish on the star of a town christmas tree as part of a town tradition then splitting up as they each have their own journey to love. all three books take place over the same time span and have references and cameos of the other characters throughout.
criticisms:
they all follow the same sort of plot: forced proximity, bond, kiss once, break up, christmas magic gets them back together, happily ever after so once you've read one you can guess the whole plot of the others.
and books 2 and three are almost the same thing just gender swapped and slightly different backstories with one mc hating christmas, being forced to spend time together doing christmassy things, break up happens right after the first kiss and is miscommunication over one of the mcs being paid for that time but they actually refused the money.
also in book three, at least in my arc copy there were a handful of errors that threw me off, like the events of the scene at the tree being wrong and multiple character names being spelled wrong including the mmc

Holiday Treat!
A Curvy Wonderland is a YA novellas. Sunshine teen meets the Grumpy teen, forced proximity romance.
We meet Eldan who is not a fan of Christmas even though he lives in Garland, Maine. A town that is Christmas themed and his parents own a Christmas tree farm. His mother decides since this is his last Christmas before he leaves to go off to college to put in charge of the giving tree. In the hopes that it will help him with his past trauma.
Holly tends to spend her holiday break babysitting two of the cutest littles girls ever, and having fun with them with all the Christmas activities around town. However, the plans are changed when the mother tells Holly that their father who is deployed will not be coming home on Christmas Eve like they had planned. So to keep them girls from being upset she has volunteered them to help out Eldan with giving tree.
The feelings growing between Eldan and Holly are slow, and sweet and they both learn to let down their exterior walls and let each other fall in love. The book is very well written and easy to sit and read in one go. I can not wait to read the other two novellas in this series.

This was a cute feel good story taking place during the Christmas season sprinkled with a little Christmas magic. When I say magic, I mean in a very loose sense, helping others, helping themselves and bringing others joy.
This is the first story in A Curvy Christmas series, A Curvy Wonderland is about two young adults- Holly, who is full of sunshine and gumdrops and Elden, the grumpy, quiet teen who likes to keep to himself for reasons untold. These two were forced to spend time together bringing Christmas cheer to others and the unexpected happens. Enjoy their journey to the best Christmas ever.
As Kelsie states:
“The truth is, you don’t need a Christmas star to make the season magical—you have all the magic you need right inside you, and it’s even better when you share it with someone else.”

4.5 stars 💚
This book was super adorable, quick and filled with just enough emotion to make your heart feel for the characters, but not enough to cry for them.
I loved how the MMC thought she was beautiful from day 1. He never mentioned her size or even thought about it during his POV.
The reason I deducted .5 stars from this book is because of grammatical errors or just typos that weren’t caught during editing. I know some mistakes are bound to happen from time to time, but there were too many for such a short book.
Main Tropes:
💚 plus size FMC
🎄 Christmas volunteers
💚 Scrooge x Buddy the Elf
🎄 military family rep
💚 small town
🎄 dual POV
💚 YA romance (mild kisses only)
❤️🩹 Content Warnings: childhood abandonment, therapy, drug addiction mentioned, & adoption

This was a super cute holiday read! Like a Hallmark movie wrapped up into a book. I love Christmas movies, so put it in book form and I’m all in!
Even though this was a short novella it carried a lot. The little town of Garland was adorable. Holly was the cutest sparkle of joy. Her personality was so positive, happy and likable. I loved seeing grumpy Eldan come around and have some Christmas spirit. What he did at the end for the girls was so sweet!
This was my first Kelsie book and certainly won’t be my last. Loved the uplifting feel good vibes of this story. Short, sweet, and innocent book with all the Christmas feels!! Sometimes you just need a light hearted wholesome story that makes you feel good. I’ll always love the YA genre for that reason!

As I read through the books I felt myself getting cosier and falling in love with the characters, their development and the small town with a big sense of community.
This stories have so much warmth and a true Christmassy feel whilst reading them, grab yourself a snuggly blanket, a mega mug of hot choccie and some snacks because you won’t want to move until you’ve devoured this festive treat of books.
Holly is giving me a Cindy-Lou vibe whilst Eldan gives Grinch.
Nick and Belle are full on festive vibes for me full of wholesome cuteness.
The gorgeousness of Carolynn and Whit as they blossom individually and together is lush, showing us that relationships are give and take.

I could not stop smiling throughout this book. It was so cute. I loved this sweet story. It was perfect to read right before Christmas. It was an easy read with a cute close proximity clean romance story. I loved the quiet misunderstood Alden and thought he as so adorable the way he felt quietly and started noticing Holly. Holly was so full of Christmas Spirit and was a friend to all. I loved watching them develop feelings for each other. My only complaint was there were a few inconsistencies and grammar errors, but it did not take away from the adorable story. This was a sweet short story perfect for all ages with light kissing to enjoy on Christmas Eve every year.
December 28, 2025
This was a bit more mature for a Christmas romance novella. It tackles problems common around holidays such as missing a military parent deployed or struggling with ideas of family and what you have.
I liked this one a bit more than the others in this series because it tackled these problems instead of focusing only on the romance. I think it was heartwarming to have these characters talk through their emotions about these issues since so many people can relate to it.
I’m still fascinated they’re this friend group that haven’t actually interacted since the opening scene in Belle’s book. I guess it’s more following each girl’s perspective through the holidays instead.

Tropes-
Small town
Dual Pov
Grumpy/Sunshine
This series is so fun! Eldan the MMC is forced to help people for the Christmas season by his parents and Holly the FMC has offered to help with the two adorable little girls she babysits. I thought it was so cute to see Eldan pretend like he didn’t care but then get to his Pov to see how deeply he felt. What Eldan did for the girls was so thoughtful 🥹and I loved how they all purposely dressed extra Christmasy to get on his nerves.
Thank you Kelsie for sending me these books!

Holly and Elden…. My heart ached for them both and then my tears turned to joy 🥹 a short, magical Xmas story that seriously got me in the feels, Kelsie - I LOVE the way that you make me fall in love with your couples as a whole even in such a short story, there are so few story’s that will literally make my heart ache, my eyes cry and my face smile all in the space of a 1.5 hour 1 session read!! (Although my husband would probably prefer you didn’t make me giggle as much while he’s trying to sleep at midnight 🤭🤭)

I love this book! I'm a sucker for a good grumpy/sunshine story and this one did not disappoint. This book had me swooning, laughing and even crying in the very best way. Holly and Eldan are total opposites that somehow make the perfect pair. The way that they come together to create some holiday magic by helping others in their community is truly heartwarming. And I can't forget Eldan's dog Bauble the tibetan mastiff. He had my heart from the very beginning! If you like reading sweet holiday romance then this story is for you. I highly recommend it!
November 3, 2024
This book is everything you look for in a typical Hallmark christmas movie. It is so cute and sweet that it makes cookies seem sour. And I loved it. I loved every second of it. I loved the grumpy x Sunshine, I love the plus-size fmc, and I love the everyday magic that anyone can do with just a touch of kindness!
And if that doesn't convince you to give it a read, then maybe the dedication will
"For anyone struggling with diet culture this holiday—forget the calories, enjoy the hot chocolate. It pairs perfectly with this story. ;)"

First, I would like to express my gratitude to Kelsie and her team for being able to read and review these books early. I’m so excited and thankful for the opportunity.
I was very excited that the FMC was named Holly since that’s my name, so I’d been looking forward to this.
I really liked Eldan’s challenge from his mom, and how he started to act on it.
I think this one was my favorite, but I also like the grumpy/sunshine troupe!
This series definitely put me in the Christmas spirit 🎄

OMG, get ready for some feelings with this one. The Grinch meets Cindy Lou all over again. She doesn't have anything to do over Christmas or so she thinks. Then she meets a boy that is heart pounding handsome but he is a hard nut to crack.
I love the hint of the military and the struggles that it brings to anytime but mainly the holidays. There is so much happening here but it was easy to keep track. Needs some Hallmark vibes? This is definitely the book to get.

Another cute Christmas novella!
Eldan was another grouchy boy from a small town who wasn't exactly into the Christmas spirit. At first he wanted nothing to do with Holly and the girls she was babysitting.
But as time when on he couldn't help but be undeared by Holly's joyful spirit.
Holly develops feelings too but fears it's all in her head and that he couldn't possibly like her. He had to show her he felt the same. So adorable 🥰
