One Hot December | Tiffany Reisz

Pickpick

Of the three books in the Men At Work based around holidays, this was second best. If you're looking for something more focused on Hanukkah (but lightly) this fits the bill. Ian is Flash's boss and they hooked up six months ago. Ian is a goody-two-shoes wealthy son of a Senator. Veronica is a lady welder, hence the Flash nickname. This book was just as spicy as the previous two but there was some added light kink in this, too.

The Last Christmas | Gerry Duggan, Brian Posehn

When a tragedy leaves Santa feeling like a shell of a human, it's up to the elves to make him see the light...and revenge. A violent departure from the sugary sweet romans that dominate the season, this was sad but fun.

Set over the course of a year, we follow Jess and Alex, who meet while sharing a home with 3 others. Both are at a crossroads in life and starting over. I felt that we got to know Alex and side characters more than Jess. She was a little bland. It was fairly predictable but light & cute for the time of year. A pick but I'm not shouting it from the rooftops of Notting Hill.

I read this for the December #sundaybuddyread

I loved this one! Given the premise and the way it starts out, I was kept wondering how it would play out. It was full of Christmassy things like a cabin, family, sledding, snow sculptures, and the tree. I will likely read this in a few years.

This was my official #bookspin December book. I didn't read my double spin this month. @TheAromaofBooks

This wasn't bad, but even at 7 hours, it felt a bit long. I don't knit. The love interests were a bit boring. The narrator felt a bit too proper. It was a Hoopla bonus for November that I snagged last minute for Winter Games. I was drawn in by the cover, if I'm honest. Cleo owns the Knitting Box. Dillon's a single dad. This could be a case of "it's not you, it's me". But yay for points!

Christmas in Evergreen | Hallmark Publishing

Cute book, very Hallmark-sweet. Allie is about to leave her hometown of Evergreen, Vermont in the rearview mirror and meet up with her boyfriend in Washington, DC. A storm leads her to meet widower Ryan and his daughter Zoe. Zoe makes a wish on the magical snow globe in the diner. It's all holiday goodness and super sweet.

Christmas With The Marine | Candace Havens
post image
Pickpick

Ben is a Marine out shopping for kids and seniors when he meets Ainsley who happens to be a personal shopper...how convenient! This meet cute turns into some sexy times as they contemplate if they really have time for a relationship. A quick read/ listen with some holiday spirit. The narrator was a man and all of his females sounded weird except a Brit.
