Review: Jingle Balls by Vanessa Waltz

Review of Jingle Balls by Vanessa Waltz



When Gigi's dumped by her fiancé, she has to go back home to her mom's and face all the pity and sympathy from not just her mom but her mom's friend and neighbor. To make things worse, her neighbor's son Ronan is in town too, visiting his mom for the holidays. Ronan, the boy who made her life miserable their entire growing up years. Ronan, the boy who's a man now. A really hot man. But still an ass. Or is he? Maybe he just likes teasing her and now that Gigi and he are adults, he just might see the beauty in her that he never bothered looking at before. When the two are thrown together by their moms into playing Santa and elf for their town's Christmas events, it just might be Ronan's chance at redemption, and at getting Gigi into his life in a way he never thought of before.


I thought this was a fun, spicy enemies to lovers holiday read. Ronan and Gigi had chemistry for days, and I loved seeing how gradually Gigi warmed up to him. He really was a changed man with a big heart. Gigi was perhaps a bit prickly, but considering she had just been dumped by her fiancé, I could understand why she wasn't that friendly at first.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...

Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...
