Love Happens Anyway, RJ Scott
Hiring a boyfriend for Christmas; what can go wrong?

Derek is facing yet another Christmas where his life feels out of control. He has a new career that doesn’t feel like his, and parents who would just love to see him settled down. All he needs is a temporary buffer for the parties he has to attend, and for his parents to leave him alone. Enter, Luke.

Luke is twenty-thousand dollars short for the renovations on Halligans; his family’s bar in New York’s Financial District. A favor for a buddy has him agreeing to play the part of boyfriend to a guy with more money than sense.

But when the spirit of Christmas works its magic on the two men, and they begin to fall for each other, Derek runs scared, and Luke needs space.

It doesn’t matter what obstacles you throw in the way of love, or how much you run in the other direction, because, when you’re least expecting it, whether you want it or not, love happens anyway.

REVIEW:

What a perfect ending to my Holiday reading, I love the fake boyfriend trope.

Derek made up a boyfriend months ago just to keep his meddling parents out of his personal life. The only problem is now they want to meet the heroic firemen that doesn't exist anywhere but Derricks imagination.

What's a guy to do?

Luke is trying to get the bar that has been in his family for three generations up and running again, but the bank doesn't seem to want to help. When he gets a call from an old friend asking for a favor, for a lot of money,  he is reluctant but desperate.

Things get off to a rocky start, but one thing after another opens each men's eyes to the possibility of love happening anyway!

Great story, not just for the holiday but for anytime you just wanna go, sigh!

Bittersweet Christmas (The Order), by Nina Croft, 2017

Orphan Liam Ryan isn’t asking for much this Christmas--just his Uncle John. And he’s counting on Father Christmas to find a way to make that happen.

But when Father Christmas tosses Liam’s letter, claiming that the kid is

asking the impossible, his daughter, Winter, takes over. Half-pixie, Winter, longs to do something important with her life, starting with getting a job at the Order of the Shadow Accords, the organization that polices the supernatural world. When she discovers Liam’s uncle works for the Order, it seems like fate.

Savaged by werewolves and bitten by a vampire, no one knows what to expect of John Ryan, but it won’t be anything good. So there’s no way he’s getting involved with his nephew...or anyone else. Worse, he’s getting a babysitter over the holidays. But when he meets irrepressible Winter, all that matters is whether she likes her guys to be naughty or nice....

The Order series is best enjoyed in order.
Reading Order:
Book #1 Bittersweet Blood
Book #2 Bittersweet Magic
Book #3 Bittersweet Darkness

Book #4 Bittersweet Christmas

REVIEW:

Bittersweet Christmas by Nina Croft has all the feel good makings one would expect of a holiday story with some darker, sexier, angstier twists. For those new to the series, The Order of the Shadow Accords is an organization that polices the supernaturals of this world.  Bittersweet Christmas ties in John Ryan's story line whose nephew writes a letter to Father Christmas (AKA Odin) asking for for the return of the uncle who abandoned him.  Winter is the Half Pixie tasked to babysit the newly turned human and ensure that the boy's Christmas wish comes to pass.  Do not be fooled by the fact that this is a novella - there is a lot going on and it is a steamy fast read.  Fans of this series have been waiting a minute for a new installment so this is pretty exciting stuff - for those who are reading this as a stand alone (shhh don't tell me!), there isn't much in the way of world building or major character development so you will have to keep pace.

All in all, Bittersweet Christmas is a perfect PNR holiday gem to get you in the Xmas spirit or keep you there on a cold winter's night.  Nina Croft made the Nice List this year!

Montana Secret Santa (Love at the Chocolate Shop Book 3)

Ad exec Krista Martin, while feeling more Grinch than elf, still jumps at the chance to co-chair Marietta’s Secret Santa Society. Why not? Especially since brilliant, attractive, and innovative tech wunderkind Jonah Andrews has agreed to help. He's well connected and Krista's hoping for some advice on rebooting her career.

Jonah knows Krista has a not-so-hidden agenda, but sparring with her over cocoa at their Secret Santa meetings is the most fun he’s had since returning to his old hometown. Krista may come across as all business, but Jonah’s positive he’s glimpsed a little girl inside her who wants to believe in Santa... and in love.

What a fabulous Christmas story! I love the people, the town, the chocolate shop and of course the dogs!

Three Under the Christmas Tree, Silvia Violet
Ace and Gavin haven't had a threesome in far too long. When Ace meets the perfect guy to join them, he can't think of a better way to kick off the holiday season.

Jonathan is charmed by the sexy couple, and he quickly realizes that what started as a fling has the potential to be a whole lot more.

Gavin feels their connection just as strongly, but even after weeks of the three of them hanging out, he's afraid to suggest they turn their friends-with-benefits arrangement into a serious relationship.

The joy and shared experiences of the season have a way of making magic happen, if only all three men could find the courage to ask for what they want.

REVIEW:

If you are looking for something to warm you up this cold holiday season then this is the book for you!

Ace and Gavin are an established couple with an open relationship, and they are looking for a special holiday present they can share. Jonathan is just what they are looking for. When the three come together it is scorch the pages hot....but can the flames be sustained?

The queen of threesomes has another winner! Come for the hot sex, stay for the love!

A Real Cowboy for Christmas (Wyoming Rebels Book 6), Stephanie Rowe, 2017

Only a deathbed promise would send Jaimi Hamilton to Rogue Valley for Christmas to track down her brothers, the nine Stockton cowboys who don’t even know she exists. 

When Sheriff Dane Wilson discovers the vulnerable, sassy single mom from New England has a secret connection to the cowboys he considers his brothers, the protector side of him kicks in…but whose side is he supposed to be on?

When a wintry first kiss raises the stakes, suddenly there’s more than just family at risk. 

REVIEW: 

All I want for Christmas is a Real Cowboy! Stephanie Rowe has long been a go-to author for this reader. She writes stories that grab you quickly and don't let go. Regardless of genre - Contemporary, Romantic Suspense or Paranormal Romance - they are always about family, about the connections between people and what binds us together. And at no point of the year does that resonate more than at the holiday season.

Dane and Jami are great - their connection is instant and their story is both sexy and frustrating as they dance around the secrets and mysteries of her family, revealed after her mother's death. There are moments of laughter, sadness and blush worthy romance - a perfect treat for someone who has been good all year long! Check out A Real Cowboy For Christmas and go back and pick up the first five in the Wyoming Rebels series - you wont be sorry!.

10 Lords-A-Leaping
9 Ladies Dancing (okay, maybe that's Griff)
8 Kids-A-Complaining

6 Love Junk Gadgets
5 **DRA-AAG QUEENS**
4 Calling Neighbors
3 Nosy Grannies
2 Men Falling In Love
And a partridge in a pear tree.

REVIEW:

The gangs all here and they are doing what Marian's do best.....meddle!

Noah just moved to San Francisco from Canada and until he can get his RN license transferred he has taken a part time job selling sex toys. And of course his first party is with the Marian family who decide that Noah needs to find a man and they are going to hep him do it...and if a little bet between siblings also happens to take place who could it hurt?

Luke is a work-aholic who doesn't have time for relationships, or so he keeps telling himself. Having his best friends little brother who is hot as hell living with him is trying his resolve. And seeing him going out with a different guy almost every night isn't helping either.

Noah meets some great guys on his date but all he really wants is Luke.

Because this book involves the Marian clan you know hilarity ensues! I was laughing so hard by the time I finished the book my stomach hurt.

A funny, sexy holiday read!

REVIEW:   Oh Keira Andrews, you do know how to melt a frosty heart!  In Case of Emergency is a perfect holiday romance tale: complete with long lost "relatives", crappy coworkers and hot tubs in the snow. 

At one time related by their parents brief marriage, Daniel and Cole have grown and gone their separate ways.  A freak klutz accident finds Daniel, listed as "In Case of Emergency Contact" at college, picking up his once step brother from the ER and committing to a week of nurse-maiding due to his fracture and concussion.  Not exactly the romantic holiday getaway he had originally planned.  But things happen for a reason.   The two men learn who one another has become and they are more alike than not.  And the bonds of once upon a family are nothing like the bonds of pure attraction that develops - like the whipped cream on top of hot cocoa.  Just that little extra that makes your mouth water and your brain say "Yum!"  A great quick holiday romance read - the friends to lovers trope will never get old for this girl!

A Dye Hard Holiday, Aimee Nicole Walker
Curl up and Dye Mysteries #5
It’s supposed to be the most wonderful time of year for Gabe and Josh Roman-Wyatt as they celebrate their first holidays as fathers, but someone’s war on St. Nick threatens to ruin their holly jolly Christmas.

The Norman Rockwell holiday they had envisioned implodes and shenanigans ensue in true Josh and Gabe style, but that only makes the couple more determined to rejoice in the love and joy they have found in one another. A Black Friday showdown, two foul-mouthed birds, one lumbersexual, ugly Christmas sweaters aplenty, four invading grandparents, and a sexy twist on an advent calendar lead up to oh, holy nights. Catch up with your favorite characters and meet some new faces in a tale that is sure to make you feel as warm as Josh’s creamy, hot-buttered rum concoction.

A Dye Hard Holiday is a funny story about two fathers trying to hold it all together as they juggle busy careers and family life while planning the perfect holiday season. Will they be rocking around the Christmas tree or will it be a blue Christmas? The book is approximately 50,000 words long and is not intended as a standalone book. This supplements the Curl Up and Dye Mysteries series, which should be read in order. This book contains sexually explicit material and is intended for adults 18 and over.

REVIEW:

I found this series this year and just could not read them fast enough. I love the banter, not just between the MC's, but all of the characters. They talk to each other like I would talk to my friends.

This is the first Christmas for the twins and Josh and Gabe want to make it wonderful for everyone, but someone is trying to rain on their Christmas parade. There are a rash of break in's and property damage cases and it looks like they are being done by the same person or people. So why Gabe is busy trying to get the bad guy, Josh is dealing with visiting grandparents, and keeping up with two babies....not to mention an ex that keeps showing up. They are out to deck the halls and keep things merry and bright and if they have to kick ass to make it happen then they will!

While they are busy with cookie making, holiday parties and catching the bad guys there is still plenty of Ho Ho Hot sexy times.

This is a great holiday read that will warm you up and put a smile on your face!!

Royally Screwed - The Royally Series Book 1
By Emma Chase 

(Audiobook/Audible, narrated by Andi Arndt and Shane East)

New York Times bestselling author of the Tangled Series & Legal Briefs Series, returns with the first of three sizzling standalone books about a family of racy, irresistible Royals.

Nicholas Arthur Frederick Edward Pembrook, Crowned Prince of Wessco, aka “His Royal Hotness”, is wickedly charming, devastatingly handsome, and unabashedly arrogant—hard not to be when people are constantly bowing down to you.

Then, one snowy night in Manhattan, the prince meets a dark haired beauty who doesn’t bow down. Instead, she throws a pie in his face.

Nicholas wants to find out if she tastes as good as her pie, and this heir apparent is used to getting what he wants.

***

Dating a prince isn’t what waitress Olivia Hammond ever imagined it would be.

There’s a disapproving queen, a wildly inappropriate spare heir, relentless paparazzi, and brutal public scrutiny. While they’ve traded in horse drawn carriages for Rolls Royces and haven’t chopped anyone’s head off lately—the royals are far from accepting of this commoner.

But to Olivia—Nicholas is worth it.

***

Nicholas grew up with the whole world watching, and now Marriage Watch is in full force. In the end, Nicholas has to decide who he is, but more importantly, who he wants to be: a King…or the man who gets to love Olivia forever.


Amazon           Barnes and Noble          iBooks

Review:

A prince who snaps his fingers and people follow his commands plus a plucky young New-Yorker trying to keep the family business afloat equals one of those romances you know you'll love from the start.  Who doesn't love royalty, or down on their luck heroines who catch a break just when they need it the most?  What could potentially be a trite Cinderella tale manages to be endearing and seriously steamy all the same time.  The two readers and alternating POV's in the story help to really cement these characters as highly enjoyable and very entertaining.  Guaranteed to melt your frosty heart on a cold winter's night, Emma Chase has been added to the "go-to" pile for this gal!  

I give Royally Screwed a delish Four Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries.  I highly recommend the audio version to hear the intensely sexy baritone of Prince Nicholas!

Holidays conjure up many thoughts - long, chilly nights snuggled

up by the fire, bare feet tucked under the one you love. Some are hallmarks of summer, when your skin is warmed by more than the sun. There is the after-Thanksgiving dinner nightcap, and the feel of the smooth, sultry burn of whiskey warming your chest, rendering your limbs heavy. Or lazy kisses and wandering hands beneath your best dress on a romantic Valentine's Day date.

A Fashionably Dead Christmas by Robyn Peterman
It’s Christmas at the Cressida House and all Hell is breaking loose.

Tree? Decorated and lit. Elf on a Shelf? Seated with style. Baby Jesus on the mantle? Fourteen neatly in a row. Life sized Nutcracker? Creepy, but standing proud. Invitations sent to entire immortal family to celebrate the holiday? Possibly the stupidest damn thing I’ve ever done.

Mixing Heaven and Hell on my cousin’s famous birthday seemed like such a brilliant idea. I wanted my baby’s first Christmas to be special—memorable. I’d like chalk my heinous idea up to having been fallen down drunk, but that won’t fly as it’s insanely difficult for a Vampyre to tie one on. So instead I’ll deal with obscene gifts from relatives, kidnapped rock stars and catering by Mother Nature.

To complicate matters, our new family pet thinks the whole house is his toilet. Ethan and I can’t even find a room with working lock on the door to spread a little holiday cheer.

Never, never again. Christmas from now on will be at a freakin’ spa for the undead—no poles for dancing and no slumber parties with the Devil.

I just have to make it through the next twenty-four hours without beheading a beloved one.

I give this book 5 chocolate dipped strawberries. FABULOUS
