Fluffy Christmas holiday novella. A small town romance w/childhood friends to lovers & brother’s best friend w/it’s always been you.
Plus size FMC rep!
FMC doesn’t like Christmas so MMC decided to show her What to love about Christmas. All that, there is intense sexual tension that is easily breakable.
Obviously, since it’s a novella , it’s an instalust/love story.

“Let me show you, Quinn. I want to show you just how perfect you are… with my actions, not just my words.”

This follows Quinn and Parker. Quinn has returned home for Christmas to spend time with family in Strawberry Hollow. Quinn doesn't enjoy the Christmas time but when the handsome doctor named Parker who is the brother's best friend up convinces her he can change her mind about the holiday within the 7 days she is home.

I loved the storyline and plot of this book! Quinn and Parker had great chemistry and this man Dr Parker sign me up I will happily take an examination any day of the week from this man. Also, the mouth made me weak. Such a feel-good read to get you in the holiday spirit. Loved this one! I was not a fan of Parker calling her “love” though but that's more of a personal issue as I struggle with that in general pet or nicknames.

Can we just appreciate the quote above? Like how sweet is Parker Grant? Man, I am simping HARD for him.

Maren Moore has yet again created another perfect specimen of a man and I cannot get enough! Part of me is sad that I love Christmas so much because if I didn’t, I could in fact be taking Quinn’s spot INSTANTLY. Oh well, I will continue to be delusional and think I could ever get my hallmark ending like Quinn did,

Once a year, Quinn returns home to see her family, only it’s during the season she hates and one where her relationship is strained with her father. Not looking forward to the yearly traditions of arguments between her parents, Quinn is more than reluctant to hibernate and get through the week as quick as she possibly can. While stepping outside for fresh air, Quinn comes face to face with her childhood crush… Grant. A conversation or two later, a bet is created under the mistletoe along with a steamy kiss shared.

As the week draws on, Quinn finds her old feelings resurfacing after a one night stand turns into an every night stand and Parker’s company becomes the favourite part of her day, just like her company becomes his.

I absolutely LOVED the chemistry between Parker and Quinn and how perfect he was towards her. I love how the family reacted when Grant announced his feelings for all to hear during a Christmas lunch, it was so nice to see a different reaction than the one where the brother storms off furious that his sister and best friend have been sleeping together. The entire novella left me feeling warm and heartfelt, it was the perfect introduction to the holiday season and I bet the next novella will be just as good, if not bet. The ending made me so happy and I hope I get to see more of them! Santa… I’ve been a good girl and need a man like Parker.
