Honkers Under the Holly

De: Amy Award

Narrado por: Allie Shae, Kyle Mason

What happens when a struggling sports agent and a plus-size model fake an engagement to save a rescue goose? Christmas chaos, that’s what.

I didn’t plan to pretend to be in love with the gorgeous plus-size model who rescued a goose from the chopping block at Oktoberfest. But when Sir Honksalot destroys her apartment and my parents sell their shop right before Christmas, a fake engagement seems like the perfect solution to our mutual housing woes.

Now we’re house-sitting a mansion together, but confined to one room…with only one bed. We have to convince everyone we’re the most boring couple in L.A., while dealing with a delinquent waterfowl with a sock-stealing habit and feelings that don’t feel fake at all.

This curvy girl romance features a bad-tempered rescue goose with his own social media following, a sports agent who’s secretly a romantic at heart, and a baddie plus-size model who knows her worth—all set in a prequel to everyone’s favorite football family, the Kingmans.

Fun and flirty

This was such a fun holiday novella and I loved that we got a little glimpse of the Kingmans before they were older and meeting their parents. “Honkers Under the Holly” is a fun, flirty and swoony sports holiday novella with a fun and quirky goose.

I loved how this was set in the Kingman’s world but adjacent to it. We get to meet Mama and Papa Kingman and some of the boys when they were younger which was so fun. But Mac and Sara Jayne. Mac was a former football player turned agent who had one client but was trying desperately to build his business. Thanks to Oktoberfest, a beautiful woman and a silly goose… Mac meets Sara Jayne. I loved the instant connection between them and how they would do just about anything to help Sir Honks-A-Lot. That goose had me cracking up so much with his quirkiness and how he would steal the spotlight no matter where he was at. Tommy is such a fun guy and I loved him with Sir Honks-A-Lot and everything he brought to the story. This novella was great and a fun addition to the series.

Allie Shae and Kyle Mason narrated as Sara Jayne and Mac and they were so much fun to listen to. I loved their fun and genuine narrations bringing all these characters to life.

Underwhelming

The Cocky Kingmans is my all-time favorite series. Unfortunately, this addition was a bit lackluster.

Super cute

This was super cute! I am so happy to be caught up on this series!
