A short Christmas read with lots of emotions. Not everyone has the perfect life but sometimes you meet the right people at the right time who make your life better.

When this book ended, I literally screamed “no” out loud! I loved this introduction to Smoke and Maggie so much! I went in knowing this was a novella but it still was over way too soon for me! I seriously need their full story along with all the other Carellis asap! These two had a bit of a rocky start but there was no denying the chemistry. The moments with him and Mateo were so heart-melting. The rowdy and lovable Carelli family made for many laughs and I loved their camaraderie. Chelle Bliss and Eden Butler packed this baby full of heart, spice and sweetness!

Santa Baby was a fun, quick, sweet read that introduces the Carelli Family. I'm looking forward to reading more about Smoke and Maggie in the rest of the series, but this was a wonderful introduction and a short, holiday read.

Had I known beforehand that this was basically a novella before a series, I would have changed my expectations or many not even picked it up. I thought this was just going to be a cute and quick holiday novella. It ends abruptly and not even with a HFN ending. Feels like I wasted my time reading it.

I enjoyed this novella.
But now I need more of Smoke and Maggie!
I also want to learn more about this Alejandro guy.
There has to be another story, right? Because this can’t end here!!!!!!

Santa Baby is a holiday novella that has me wanting more of the Carelli Family!
What a great introduction to this world. Maggie is down on her luck however things start turning around when she parks her car and has an interesting first meeting with Smoke. This quick story gives us just a taste of what is going to happen and I can't wait to read more and find out all the juicy details of their relationship and the workings of this crime family!

Santa Baby: a Carelli Family Christmas Novella is an entertaining, fast-paced short story. That introduces readers to Smoke the eldest Carelli brother, Maggie and her baby boy Matteo. Who are rescued by Smoke on Christmas Eve. And it perfectly sets up their story, which is coming in 2020, and I can't wait!! As the bond between Smoke and Matteo is already beginning to forge, and the chemistry between Smoke and Maggie is really starting to sizzle.

Short, sweet, and such a tear for a building story! This one will certainly make you want to dive into the rest of the series.
Both narrators did a wonderful job, and I'm excited to see how the progress as this story moves along!
