Holiday Gifts of Love Blog Hop & Contest

During the busy holiday season, I reach for a good book as a way to de-stress and unwind. Jaci Burton’s Kent family series (All She Wants for Christmas, A Rare Gift, and The Best Thing) is a particular favorite of mine. Each novella is part of Carina Press’s annual Holiday anthology, but they can be purchased individually. And because I also enjoy some smokin’ hot male/male lovin’ too (yes I like my books both naughty & nice ;)), I have to include K.A. Mitchell’s Wish List in my list of favorite holiday stories. This novella is part of the Red Hot Holiday anthology, but it can also be purchased individually as well. (Click on the book titles for more information.)

Now it’s your turn. Do you have a favorite holiday book? Don’t forget to leave your e-mail address along with your comment to be entered in the drawing for the Grand Prizes (see below). Complete contest rules are below.

    One of my favorite Christmas Romance Books is The Untamable Rogue by Annette Blair! The story is about Ashford Blackburne Fifth Earl and he has to get married and get his willing bride pregnant before Christmas or his grandfather won’t let him inherit his money. Ash truly needs to inherit the money because his late father squandered it all away and he is taking care of his mother. After getting stood up at the alter, again, Ash and his friends go to the local pub where the owner plays a drunken Ash in a card game…his consolation prize is the pubs daughter Larkin, who he wants to get ride of. Ash has to learn to forgive…Larkin has to learn how to trust…can two completely different people find love together. This is a cute, extremely funny, romantic story with a surprise Christmas ending!
