Wrapped up in Tinsel

De: BL Maxwell

Narrado por: Guy Veryzer

Steve Reynolds prefers to avoid people, and working as a tech guy at one of the big box electronic stores has guaranteed that. He does the repairs and lets the person at the counter deal with the rest, it’s perfect. Until this year, when the store is downsizing and he’s laid off just before Thanksgiving.

Garrett Juhl loves Christmas more than anyone has loved Christmas before him. Or at least he likes to tell himself that, and while he’s making deliveries for his job, he also pretends he’s Santa. But he’d rather not admit that to anyone.

Desperate for a job Steve takes the first one he’s offered even if he’s not sure he’ll survive it. Being one of Santa’s elves at the local mall has never been something he’d consider, but he’s desperate. When Garrett goes to the mall to see this year's decorations he immediately notices the grouchy elf who even with a frown looks cute in his elf uniform. Maybe this year he could be the one who turns that frown upside down.

Hanging at the mall. And MM sex

Most of this novella was two geeky guys being domestic and supporting each other in their blue collar jobs. It was hard for me to tell whether Garrett or Steve’s POV was on because they both sounded like gangly teens. There was zero chemistry and no plot beyond them being cloyingly sweet to each other.

Then, bam!, F bombs and awkward but detailed sex. Then more blah, blah boring life stuff. Then, bam!, more sex while wearing thongs with jingle bells. Cringe. This was painful to listen to.

Loved it

I loved Wrapped Up In Tinsel and struggled to put it down. Guy Veryzer's voice really brings this story to life and makes you love the characters even more. The story is amazing and I enjoyed reading Steve and Garrett's Holiday story.
