Merry Inkmas – by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward

When my boss got fed up with the constant bickering between me and another tattoo artist, she decided a company retreat was in order. But when Cade and I wound up snowed in alone at the cabin, things took a turn…. There’s a reason they say there’s a fine line between love and hate, and we had no idea which way things were going to turn out.

Christmas in Chestnut Springs - Elsie Silver

T’was the night before Christmas . . . in Chestnut Springs! Check in with the Eaton family to see holiday pranks, new friendships formed, and maybe even a new baby born. Five chapters as told by five of your most beloved heroes.

Storm of the Century  - Susan Stoker

When a snowpocalypse leaves Police Chief Simon Hill stuck in the traffic jam from hell two days before Christmas, freezing to death is a real possibility. Until he finds his secret crush, the woman who warms his heart, stranded just a few cars away.

The Rebel - Marni Mann

One bed.

Two stranded strangers.

Three wildly passionate nights.

A thousand secrets between them.

After an unplanned, sizzling weekend together, what happens when Cooper Spade and Rowan Cole return home and realize they spent seventy-two unforgettable hours with the enemy …

And loved every second …

Always Mine – Brittney Sahin

Two worlds collide when Eva Scott and Bree McGregor wind up in danger in this Stealth Ops - Dublin Nights crossover event. Luke Scott and his team join forces with the McGregors to save the ones they love before it's too late in this exclusive short story.

Rolland Ruins Christmas – Meagan Brandy

I don't want a woman to call my own. It's a decision I made long ago and one I plan to stick by.

Too bad for me, the little brat down the road seems determined to change that, prancing around in her little Santa suit and bringing me things I don't want.

No matter how many times I ignore her not so subtle advances, the girl keeps trying.

I'm going to have to set her straight the hard way ... even if it means ruining Christmas.

Looking for some short, sweet, sexy free stories to bring you some holiday cheer this season? Look no further than the Once Upon a Holiday Anthology. 

This review is for Rolland Ruins Christmas by Meagan Brandy

Rolland Brayshaw may be a lot of things, a father, a grandfather, a leader... But falling for the girl down the road who is almost half his age is not on his to-do list. Only she isn't making it easy to ignore her. 

This story was a quick, fun holiday read. & While I am not usually a fan of age-gap romances I enjoyed this one. I liked seeing the Brayshaw family again, & it's setting up for possible next generation books to come (hopefully). If you love the Brayshaw series & was missing the characters, and you wanted to see Rolland get some action after all this time, this is definitely one to grab.
