My Favorite Holidate

By: Lauren Blakely

Narrated by: Andi Arndt, Samantha Brentmoor, Jason Clarke, Connor Crais, Vanessa Edwin, Andi Eloise, Teddy Hamilton, Erin Mallon, Noah B. Perez, Shakira Shute, Ryan West

A holiday romance from #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Blakely, with spice and fake dating that follows a fiery designer who teams up with her charming billionaire boss for a week-long Christmas competition, and their pretend holiday romance soon starts to feel all too real—now with a never-before-published short story.

“Wanted: hot billionaire to pose as my Christmas boyfriend. Must be willing to make my cheating ex jealous by kissing me under the mistletoe at holiday parties. Bonus if you make him cry.”

To Fable’s surprise, her billionaire boss, Wilder Blaine, is more than willing to take on the challenge of playing her holiday boyfriend. The sexy single dad desperately needs a plus one for a Christmas Eve wedding, where he’s the best man and she’s the maid of honor. With her ex also in the wedding party, the two team up as a pair of insta-lovebirds for the holiday season. Their partnership includes participating in the annual week-long Christmas competition leading up to the snowy destination wedding.

What starts as late nights crafting the best popcorn balls for the contest soon turns into a passionate night together, where the sparks between them are impossible to ignore. But when the holidays end, can their winter wonderland romance turn into something real back at the office? Or are they destined to go the way of a Christmas tree on New Year’s Day?

Las historias navideñas siempre son linda opción

Me gustó ! Amo q estén todos los personajes anteriores ! Un poco forzado el motivo de q no podían estar juntos pero se lleva bien !

Absolutely love this story

I absolutely love this story. It’s detailed without being fluffy. All the details are necessary to the growth of the Fable and Wilder. While it is a traditional fake dating story it still feels different. I enjoyed that characters from other series are also included. Things flowed smoothly and the spice is nice. The audiobook takes the story to the next level. I thoroughly enjoyed it being done with a full cast. I will definitely reread this story.

Love love all star cast!

Great plot with two friends who find themselves needing a plus 1.
Lies, ribbons, and snow equal a great friends to lovers equation.
Great all star cast!

Lots of fun

Really enjoyed getting to know this couple, fun, and flirty with excellent spice.
The reasons why they can’t date and break up are a little frivolous, but overall, tins of holiday fun.
Bloopers at the end- priceless 😂

Sexy Christmas Magic!

Lauren Blakely has created a winter wonderland of delicious games and sexy schemes! I’ve said it before, but I feel like her books should be turned into a Netflix series and it would be a the top 10 list every week!
Jason Clark is deliciously dominant as Wilder and Samantha Brentmore is sassy and sexy as Fable! The ensemble cast really brings this book to life. If you’re looking for a gift to give the romance reader in your life, look no further than this book!!
And while you’re at it, leave some extra red ribbon under the Christmas tree !! #iykyk😜

So good until chapter 44.

I loved the story but the reveal was a huge let down it was painfully pointless and lame.

Sweet Holiday RomCom

My Favorite Holidate is a cute holiday rom-com and would be a fantastic gift for your Hallmark loving friend. The narrators are fantastic and the personalities they portray come across perfectly. Fable and Wilder have great chemistry and are well developed characters. Their friends and families are wonderfully integrated from other stories in the series. The fake-dating scene hits you over the head time and time again but it’s sweet to see them struggle with their feelings and past traumas, and turn it into true love, a bunch of spice, and a happily ever after.
