I Really Can't Stay

A. R.'s Holiday Standalones

De: A.R. Rose

Narrado por: Angelina Rocca, TJ Clark

From author A. R. Rose comes a STANDALONE feel good holiday romance with fake dating, found family, and a cat named Potato....

A wise woman once told me no one should have to spend the holidays alone, and with my first Christmas after losing my family quickly approaching, I decide to take her advice to heart.

My plan is impulsive, but simple: create a dating profile and attend a few Christmas parties throughout the month to combat the loneliness.

Never in my wildest dreams did I expect an avalanche of messages full of men eager for me to be their "holidate." From office parties to family gatherings, there's no shortage of festivities to fill my calendar. And with my no strings rule, it should be simple, right?

That's what I thought, too. Until I meet someone who piques my interest in ways I never imagined, and I single-handedly redefine what it means to 'make an entrance.'

Now I can't help but wonder if the term falling in love is more literal than it seems.

Contains mature themes.

Such a cute holiday novella!

This was such a sweet and spicy holiday novella. I loved all of the cozy holiday and Christmas vibes.

Z is grieving such a tremendous loss. She is trying to get through the holidays the best she can when she runs (literally) into Miller.

Miller is just the sweetest guy! He cares so deeply for the people he loves.

The narrators did such an amazing job! I absolutely loved it.

Love it

This holiday romance is cozy, heartfelt, and full of charm. The “holidate” premise is fun and fresh, blending fake dating, found family, and festive magic with real emotional depth. The heroine’s journey through grief is handled with care, while the small-town hero who falls first delivers all the swoon. Add laugh-out-loud moments, holiday cheer, and a scene-stealing cat named Potato, and this story becomes impossible to resist.
