My favs in this anthology were definitely Love on the Ice by Bre Rose and Santa Baby by Alisha Williams. I enjoyed both stories immensely. I can't wait to see Bre expand her story later and Alisha gave us a taste of ELP again and I love those characters.

Hoist The Flag by Cassandra Featherstone. She has done it again, enthralled me straight into a fantastical story that I do not want to leave! This wee taste of the prequel novella which will be in the Jingle My Balls anthology, is full of twisted fairy tales, sexy times, tension, wicked magic and adventure! Jack and Queenie are just both adorable, totally formidable of course, but also sweet, quirky, vulnerable and full of surprises. The men are very intriguing also and I am loving the already established dynamics of the relationships along with the new and unknown building! This is definitely shaping up to be a true poly relationship which really excites me. Love is love and I feel really lucky to be able to read these wonderful books that really show how it comes in all ways. I can't wait to find out what happens next!
A Very Knotty Christmas by Miranda May definitely whets my appetite for what is to come. An established and complete pack of hot men, who just happen to be in the holiday home Sophia booked for her heat due to a double booking and it seems that she has a pack very interested in helping her through her heat! Very steamy and with lots of action, there is plenty here for everyone!

Love on the Ice by Bre Rose

This is a short, hot quick MM read about 2 best friend's Chase and Blake who secretly have been in love with each other, but they didn't know the other felt that way. It's takes a hockey game, a cabin and a girl they both see and Chase's twin Carter to make thing's interesting between them. I cannot wait to read the full story.

This was a great variety of holiday LGBTQ short stories.

You’ve got a few that are from stories already published and I had to run to add them to my TBR.

There was a story in here by Rosa Lee that I absolutely need her to write a series for!

Maggie Bonnet’s story of Mick and Otto was so extremely sweet and I am going to need some more insta love MM stories from her!

A great cause to read
I'm bumping this down a star due to what I wrot at the end of the review
This anthology is full of great short stories written by some wonderful authors. Some stories are either introducing us to new characters in a new series or giving us a peek at existing characters and their Christmas stories, just endearing them to us more.
There is a story in here for everyone from a fairytale mash up, mafia, hockey, Angel's, monsters, shifters, military or royalty. Each one has some LBGTQ+ in it from FF, MM, MMM, MMFM, there are trigger warnings before each story so if it's something you don't want to read you can skip that one. That is something that is nice about the book, you can pick and choose which story you want to read, read a story, go read something else and come back to the book when you want something quick to read. I can honestly say that there wasn't a story that I didn't enjoy. Which is why I'm not choosing to review one particular author or story, they were all equally good.
Thank you too each and everyone of the authors who participated for the wonderful stories and I look forward to the expanded version of their books. I do need to point out one wonderful story Christmas on The Range does not have an author credited or their works cited at the end of the short story. I believe it belongs to Cassandra Joy, but it is rhe only story not given an introduction or more information to find the author.

Reviewing The Yule Log by Maggie Bonnet, A Very Knotty Christmas by Miranda May and Christmas on the Range

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Yule Log -
Usually Maggie kills me with plot twists and evil cliffhangers but this time she’s sleighed me (ha, get it?!) with feels. ALL THE FEELS

The Yule Log by Maggie Bonnet

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

Ahhh....This screams Hallmark, with a little bit of smut thrown in. This was a very fast paced, sickly, "d3ath by chocolate,sweet, with a hint of rom com mixed in this short novella. I do wish there was more of a slower build up, but I do understand that these anthologies have a certain word limit. Otto and Mick were so cute, you couldn't help but root for them!!





Love on The Ice by Bre Rose

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

I AM HOOKED! This was such a fabulous intro to this new book coming out. Small things like the mentioning that Chase and Blake were bi, were getting a little repetitious, but the characters are likable and whew, it was hot...can't wait for more!

***Will edit once I read the rest!***

As someone who has worked in the restaurant industry, I can completely see these circumstances happening. It was a quick read but very intriguing. The only reason for the 4 stars is I haven’t read the whole anthology yet.

I am reviewing for "He Kramp Handle This" by Iris James and Sullyn Shaw only!! This was a quick and fast paced novella! Its a MMM "relationship" with Rudy - a reindeer shifter, Santa, and Krampus. AND OH BOY is it smexy!
