• ✨ Magical Christmas Lore
Patrick Hargrave and Quinn Muller’s first year of marriage is crumbling under daily stresses—until Christmas Eve, when Patrick wakes Quinn with: “I think I’ve killed a man.” Patrick has accidentally taken out Santa Claus, they are both tasked with saving Christmas—red suit, reindeer, and all! But their sleigh ride doesn’t end back home; instead, they’re dropped off at the North Pole to become Santa and the first-ever Merriest Mister. With a year to save Christmas *and* their marriage, will Quinn and Patrick find holiday magic or end up on each other’s naughty lists?
I had so much fun with this romance! “The Merriest Misters” is a delightfully queer twist on “The Santa Clause” with a perfect ending that left me smiling. I especially enjoyed its heartfelt message of how it’s okay if your adult life doesn’t turn out how you (or your family) expected. 🥰
This is a closed-door romance, but even as someone who usually enjoys a bit of spice, Patrick and Quinn’s playful, sweet chemistry made it easy not to miss. Let them keep those moments to themselves; I was too busy enjoying their North Pole hijinks to notice! 😉
If you’re looking for a cozy yet exciting holiday romance with all of the nostalgia, be sure to grab “The Merriest Misters” this holiday season! 💚
