Jingled and Jangled: A Delightfully Dysfunctional Familial Christmas

Merry Christmas from the Jenkins! A delightfully dysfunctional family that puts the fun in dysfunction.

Tis the season, and with the Christmas holiday fast approaching, and the school semester finally winding down, Olivia Jenkins is looking forward to a little rest and relaxation, her crazy and eccentric mother, Grandma Helen, however, not so much. So now, in addition to already having to deal with frenetic Christmas planning, holiday decorating, and the hassles of everyday life, Olivia is also finding herself having to contend with her mother's fortuitous, if not slightly self-serving, foray into the adventitious enterprise of charitable giving. After begrudgingly agreeing to help coordinate the holiday charity drive for her local community theater troupe, Helen quickly comes to the realization that acts of benevolence and munificence may just be a wee bit outside her wheelhouse, and rather than suffer through it alone, she hastily enlists the help of her youngest daughter, and the one person willing to humor her many peculiarities and impositions.

Humorously chronicled through the eyes of Addie, the Jenkins sixteen-year-old daughter, Olivia is finding herself once again having to juggle the indulgences of her family, while at the same time, working hard to keep her own sanity intact. Whether having to suffer through a calamitous Walmart shopping excursion, riotous baking fiasco, or administering damage control over a drunken and disorderly Santa, you had better believe that the Jenkins family will have plenty of wine, laughs, and witty repartee to go along with it.

Join Olivia and the rest of her family as they serve up plenty of laughs, wit, charm, and of course, sarcasm, in this hilarious second installment of Tiffany Ryan's Delightfully Dysfunctional series, where fun and dysfunction not only meet, but are seamlessly and happily intertwined!
