Another spicy festive read to warm things up this Christmas! Despite its length, this novella crammed in so much sweet and spice, and SO much chemistry between the characters. I've seen so many people raving about Kat's books, and this small taste is...
Better Not Pout by Kat Savage
If you're looking for a quick romance read in the lead-up to Christmas, this is definitely one to pick up. It's not overly Christmasy as the majority of the story is the flashbacks that don't take place at Christmas, but it's festive enough to add a ...
Cruel Winter with You by Ali Hazelwood
Devney so casually dropped the pregnancy bomb way back in book one and has been simmering Tobias’ story throughout the previous two books, and the wait has been SO worth it! While a little more angsty than the previous two books, it was a great insta...
A Partridge and a Pregnancy by Devney Perry
Fake dating? At Christmas? With a dog? The boy next door? And there’s a bookshop date? YES PLEASE! Jana has rounded out this second Reindeer Falls trilogy with some of my favourite romance elements, and it might just be my favourite in the series? At...
The Bachelor on the Shelf by Jana Aston
The moment we saw Heath and Stella together in The Naughty, The Nice and The Nanny, I just KNEW their book would be a good one. And Devney absolutely delivered everything I wanted and more with this best friend’s sister/brother’s best friend romance!...
Three Bells, Two Bows & One Brother's Best Friend
As if Reindeer Falls couldn’t get anymore festive - there’s freaking goats wearing festive bows! And they sing Christmas carols! If only this town was real because I’d be living there in a heartbeat!
One Night with a Nutcracker by Jana Aston
Christmas AND the nanny/boss trope? YES PLEASE! I’m an absolute sucker for the single dad trope, and Devney delivered such a fun, flirty and festive romance to get your into the Christmas spirit! And it’s short enough to cram in before or on Christma...
The Naughty, The Nice & The Nanny by Devney Perry
Maggie and Ryan’s relationship was a classic case of grumpy/sunshine, but on Christmas steroids! Their relationship with sweet and swoony, with a nice little sprinkle of spice.
Elves with Benefits by Jana Aston
Julie and Sierra are heating things up in this snowy Christmas romance with enough spice to melt all the snow in Christmas Notch! This book might be dressed up with a cute title and cover, but it’s definitely not your typical cute Christmas rom-com -...
A Merry Little Meet Cute by Murphy & Simone
Rebecca can honestly do no wrong when it comes to romance, so I was very excited to see her dive into the holiday romance scene with this duology! Not only that, but this is another addition to her Valley U world, and I loved getting to learn a littl...
Snowed In with the Player by Rebecca Jenshak
Christmas romances are the best and I desperately want to spend Christmas in Snow Cove! The world of Snow Cove sounded so magical and I only wish we could spend more time exploring all the festive magic the town has to offer. Clearly I just need to e...
Rebel Without A Claus by Emma Hart
I know these are novellas, but I really felt like I got through this instalment SO quickly! Again, this was a really fun and festive novella, and this one had a generous serving of spice. Never thought I’d swoon over Santa Claus, but here we are...
The One Night Stand Before Christmas by Jana Aston
The teaser for Ginger’s story during the previous book had me really excited for this rivals-to-lovers story! Again, it was a super sweet, swoony and cute festive romance, and felt like it was straight out of a Hallmark film. Ginger and Keller were b...
If You Give A Jerk A Gingerbread by Jana Aston
Holly and Nick’s story was a super cute and quick holiday romance, with a nice mix of enemies-to-lovers and misconceptions. Even though it was a well-rounded story, I do wish it had been longer – it would have been great to have these characters, and...
The Boss Who Stole Christmas by Jana Aston
f/f
Literally had no idea what this book was about when I went into it - all I needed to know was that it was another, hopefully fabulous, sapphic read from Ashley Herring Blake! So I was like 'omg I bet they're both the exes!' as I read the first few ch...
Make the Season Bright by Ashley Herring Blake
Talia has crafted a super festive read with a lot of heart and soul! The Gibson’s manor is beautifully festive and cozy, and is one of those locations I would desperately LOVE to visit at Christmas. And to get to spend the holiday season with the Gib...
The Christmas Swap by Talia Samuels
This was a really fun festive read with a sweet and spicy sapphic romance. And it combines some of my favourite romance tropes - boss/nanny, age-gape, and single parent! Morgan and Lucy’s romance was really fun and sweet, and I loved seeing it develo...
I Saw Mommy Kissing the Nanny by Shannon O'Connor
This book had me at Hallmark vibes and had me hooked from the very first page! There’s nothing like a cute Hallmark holiday film, so I adored having those vibes in book form – Courtney aced all the cute, snow-filled Christmas fun with a generous serv...
In the Event of Love by Courtney Kae
I absolutely ADORED Alison’s debut The Charm Offensive, and have been hanging out for her next release ever since – I didn’t even care what the book was going to be about, I just wanted it in my life! And just like with her debut, Alison delivered a ...
Kiss Her Once for Me by Alison Cochrun
m/m
Timothy really said let’s take everything we love about a Hallmark Christmas film and make it queer! Matthew and Hector’s relationship was equal parts sweet, swoon and cute, with a little sprinkling to spice to create a really enjoyable romance read....
You're a Mean One, Matthew Prince
