[Book Review] A Groom For Christmas By Cara Marsi & Starbucks Christmas Blend
I love Hallmark Christmas movies. They’re feel-good movies at their finest and they get me through the stress of the holiday season. They’re a little too cutesy, and cliché as all get out, but also so heartwarming and romantic - they’re my guilty little pleasure and I just can’t get enough of them. A Groom For Christmas reads exactly like a Hallmark Christmas movie. (Well maybe not exactly like a Hallmark Christmas movie, but if Hallmark movies were x-rated, then it would be exactly like a Hallmark Christmas movie - this book has a couple pretty explicit, steamy scenes)

[Short Story Review] Close To You: A Downside Ghosts Holiday Story By Stacia Kane & Zombie Java Eggnog Blend
Close To You is such an odd combination of creepy and sweet that somehow manages to really work. Chess and Terrible are hunting for auto parts in an old auto graveyard when they come face to face with a creepy/crazy old women with some decidedly macabre holiday plans of her own. At its heart, this is a holiday love story - albeit a love story with murderous ghosts, but still kind of touching in a weird way.
