Good compilation with something for everyone. Very well worth the .99 cents for Amy Lamont's and Kaylie Newell's books alone! Warning - there's a couple of mini-spoilers towards the end of this review.
I really loved Amy Lamont's Please Have Snow - a followup on one of the characters we met in her Holiday Encounters series. The story is steamy, but also humorous and sweet too. There were a few moments where I actually laughed out loud. Christmas Eve by Kaylie Newell was also great, though a shorter novella. This is a second chance at love story, also steamy with some intense emotional scenes. Sizzling in Snowflakes by Elisabeth Mayer was ok -a young adult novella which I usually don't tend to prefer. I enjoyed the story of the primary characters, Kate and Ryan. The book as a whole, however, leans more towards erotica with some unconventional sexual situations that may not appeal to some readers. Regina Kyle's Sugar Plum Seduction is a quick, light read - a nice story, but would have preferred it longer with a little more depth of characters and plot. I began reading Ringing in the New by Nola Cross and Operation Christmas by Megan Ryder but couldn't really get into them so did not finish. Likewise I did not finish Nina Bancroft's A Holiday Prospect - I couldn't get past Lind's behavior, as a boss, towards Tessa - it completely turned me off when he moved himself into her trailer without telling her - so inappropriate, despite the fact they were attracted to each other. All in all, the collection is good and has introduced me to a couple of new authors that I'll be watching for more books by. *I was provided an ARC for an honest review. ( )
