Well, this series is full of teenagers (girls?) lots of squees, lots of bad porn, and not a whole lot of plot. They are part of my MOFIBO plan, so I don't pay for the books. I still think this will be my last try, they all seeem to be a miss for me.

Book safety, content warnings, and tropes down below.
“Can I kiss you?” he asked, his eyes dazed. “I think I’ll die if you don’t.”
Although I’m starting to think christmas books just isn’t my thing, N.R. Walker strikes again with the holiday charm. This book really was super sweet and filthy hot. It’s also always refreshing to read books where the characters are intelligent, mature and good at communicating their needs and wants.
It wasn’t the most memorable book, but a good time was had, and Glen Lloyd did well with the audiobook as per usual.
Side note: the scenes I remember most of are the sex scenes, which never happens. First-time prostate orgasm that leaves the MC a shaking and twitching mess after? More, please.

I wanted someone to hang out with, to cook with, to cuddle on the couch with. Sure, intimacy and sex would be awesome, but honestly, the intimacy of doing everyday things together, of sharing my life with someone, that was what I wanted.

3.5⭐️
I think this one was the most angst free of the whole series, and maybe it lacks a bit of plot, but it is still a very good holiday read. Soren and Rob were the cutest, very honest about their feelings from the start and quite hot together!

Definitely enjoyed this pairing because neither of them was planning on leaving after a week or so, which made it different to all the other pairings (except Gunter and Clay but they had a different conflict). It made the characters feel more like they were developing a romance than rushing something because of a time constraint too.
I loved how Soren was so enthusiastic and ready to go full steam ahead, but was also trying to be super respectful as well. Rob was an interesting character and I kind of wish we'd gotten to see more of him decompressing and realising that the life he had been living previously wasn't healthy or good for him in any way. This kind of scratched the surface, but I would have liked a longer time period I guess!
Soren was really cute with his romancing of Rob though, and I loved Hamish trying to help things along in his overly invested way!
I am hoping there'll be another visit to Hartbridge next year, but I'm not sure who it would be about as no one else has really been mentioned. I just feel like it was left unfinished because I need to know more about all of these guys
