About MERRY LITTLE KISSMAS

Dear Santa,
When I asked for a fresh shot at love for the holidays, I didn’t mean fake dating my brother’s grumpy best friend.
Especially since he’s also my new client.

As a professional matchmaker, my biggest job this holiday season should be simple: find a date for the sexy single dad hockey player—aka my brother’s best friend—for his team’s fancy Christmas Eve gala.

Sure Rowan’s hot as a crackling fire and spicier than a gingerbread man, but he hasn’t just sworn off romance. The Christmas hater has made a bet that I can’t find him a holidate.

What’s a matchmaker to do?

Win, of course. Even if it means fake dating the grinch myself to get him ready for the real thing.

Only…these fake dates at Christmas tree farms and hot cocoa competitions in the snowy small town of Evergreen Falls start to feel a little too real as I get to know the man behind the scowl. Somewhere between kisses under the mistletoe and a snowed-in night in his cabin curled up by the fire (where the stockings aren’t the only thing hung), I realize I’m in over my elf-loving head.

And when Rowan opens up to me at last about his painful past, I’m determined to give my brother’s best friend the holiday he deserves.

But what if the only gift I want him to unwrap this season is… me?

Tropes: Holiday romance, brother’s best friend, fake dating, grumpy/sunshine, small town, Christmas competition, matchmaker romance, workplace romance

MY REVIEW


When Isla is bet she can find her brother's best friend a holidate, this matchmaker is finding herself in over her head, uh, make that heart. Rowan isn't only gorgeous and sweet, he's the best dad and doggy dad who doesn't believe in love any longer after what his horrible ex did to him. When they agree to fake date for the holidays, she's having a very hard time remembering it's supposed to be fake. But for the sake of her already bruised heart, she's going to have to let him go after the gala.


Isla doesn't know it, and Rowan is loathe to tell anyone, but he's been fascinated by his best friend Jason's sister, Isla, for years. Now they're fake dating for the holidays, thanks to a little bet, and he's finding that her sunshine to his grump, is opening up his heart to not just the magic of the season, but to...feelings. He still isn't sure he wants to admit those feelings, and he knows he still isn't cut out for a relationship, but Isla has gotten under his skin. Even his daughter adores her. Maybe, just maybe, their fake holidating can become a permanent, real kind of thing.


My holiday reading just keeps getting better!! Isla and Rowan are absolutely adorable - a cute adopted dog, the sweetest, sassiest daughter, teammates all being wingmen, and that chemistry?! 5 alarm hot, hot enough to melt all the snow around them. I can't think of a cuter, hotter holiday romance than one with all these things. Mabel and Corbin are next and I'm so excited for more hockey love.

Review: Waiting for You by Kate McBrien

Review of Waiting for You by Kate McBrien Justin and Lucy are apart, but for how long? Lucy's staying with her parents, but knows she needs to get out and start living her life again. But when she gets a chance to go to London, it just may be her chance to reunite with the man whose soul has been entwined with hers for centuries upon centuries. But first, our two fated lovers will have to not only reunite, but stay together, beat the odds and the people and/or forces who are trying to keep them apart. Waiting for You is a great followup to Discovering You. Justin and Lucy's story is exciting and passionate, and the mystical/fantasy/paranormal aspect just adds another interesting layer to their already wonderful connection. I normally don't read a lot of paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi romance anymore, but I loved it here in Waiting for You. It's subtle, but ever present and as I said, just makes their story all the more intriguing. I can't wait for the conclusio...
