Blurb:
Let’s start here. The twelve days of Christmas are actually after the holiday.

And my dad, being the great guy he is, and the fire department's battalion chief, signs up one of his rebellious firefighters for a retreat because of his bad behavior.

The guy is a total grouch.

But when the grumpy silver fox misses the bus for the adult redemption camp, Dad sticks him with me for twelve days.

Alone.

So, on the dozen days some mysterious true love—which I have yet to experience—should be bringing me gifts, like French hens and golden rings, I’m in charge of this firebird on our pear farm. Being the city man he is, he doesn’t have a clue how to can fruit, mend fences, or milk cows.

But he knows how to kiss . . .

Not that we should be doing such a thing. Only his silver beard is sexy, and his crooked smile kind of sweet. He has this alpha energy vibrating around his well-honed body but underneath the grumpy exterior is a man lonely for something more in his life, like me.

And instead of gifting each other random birds, leaping lords, and piping pipers, the gift we give one another is time . . . and our bodies.

But what about our hearts?

Maybe true love will strike after all.

A lot can happen in twelve days.

+ + +

In a new tradition from L.B. Dunbar comes another holiday hottie certain to heat up your holidays.

MY REVIEW


Brock's grump may have finally gotten him into trouble one too many times, because his boss told him he has one last chance to redeem himself, at his redemption retreat. But he's late and misses the bus, and when he arrives at chief's cabin, he's faced with his chief's daughter Paradise "Pear." Her 12 days of Christmas may be his way back into his job, and more significantly, into her heart, if he can let go of his hot temper.


Pear's here at her father's cabin in search of...something. She's been lonely and is in need of starting over. Then a grumpy silver fox stomps into her life also in search of something. The two of them could perhaps find it in each other, here in this cabin, snowed in for who knows how long.


Brock and Pear are such a duo. Both with baggage, and neither knowing how to deal with that baggage. I wanted to hug them both, but they really didn't need any hugs by the ending, because they found each other, found the emotional connection they didn't know they needed. The spirit of the season was working overtime with this couple, and I loved reading as they worked through the 12 days in sweet, delicious ways.

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
