Story
Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

Story
Duke Evans didn’t expect to find a beautiful woman in a staring contest with a bison on his favorite hiking trail. He also didn’t expect to see her again after rescuing her from the surly beast. As the sheriff in Calamity, Montana, he’s had his fair share of surprises but none as pleasant as pulling over a shiny black car and finding his mysterious hiking companion behind the wheel. Only she lied to Duke. She gave him a name as fake as her hair color.

I knocked up my best friend's sister. Let's start with how she decided to inform me and Pacey the news...together. Imagine that nightmare. I was going into what I thought was a hockey marketing meeting, and then bam! I'm going to be a dad and my best friend/teammate is attempting to imprint my face with his fist. Threats were tossed around, friendships were revoked, and then I was marched up to her apartment, suitcases in hand, and forced to live with her so I could take care of her every need. Now I'm finding it harder and harder not to fall for my best friend's little sister.

Thea Landry has always known her place in modern-day society. It's somewhere just above the trash can her mother dumped her in as a newborn, but below the class where much comes easy. With her tattered shoes and bargain-bin clothes, her life has never been full of glamour. So when a rich and charismatic man takes interest, she doesn't fool herself into thinking their encounter is anything more than a one-night stand. Months later, she's kicking herself for not getting his phone number. Or his last name. She's given up hope of seeing him ever again.

Even protective men with chiseled jaws, bulging biceps, and deep brown eyes that make my breath come faster.

NOT FOR ME.
- By 🔵🔷🔹Kaly🔹🔷🔵 on 09-12-22
By: Corinne Michaels
Publisher's Summary
One week with one little girl—an angel, according to my staffing agency. Acting as the short-term nanny for a single dad should have been an easy way to make some extra cash. Until I show up for my first day and face off with a demon disguised as a seven-year-old girl wearing a red tutu and matching glitter slippers.
Oh, and her father? My temporary boss? Maddox Holiday. The same Maddox Holiday I crushed on in high school. The same Maddox Holiday who didn’t even know I existed. And the same Maddox Holiday who hasn’t set foot in Montana for years because he’s been too busy running his billionaire empire.
Enduring seven days is going to feel like scaling the Himalayas in six-inch heels. Toss in the Holiday family’s annual soiree, and Christmas Eve nightmares really do come true. But I can do anything for a week, especially for this paycheck, even if it means wrangling the naughty, impressing the nice, and playing the nanny.

A Fun and Entertaining Book That Was Damaged by a Lack of Editing
This was a fun and funny book. I enjoyed the humor and was looking for something light to take my mind off things, which it did deliver. I love holiday stories, and this was a fun one.
*SPOLIER*
The reasons I rated the story three stars are the car repair and the main character's pregnancy at the end of the book. I thought it was overkill on the whole "happily-ever-after" angle.
This book features a seven-year-old girl, Violet, who needs love and bonding with positive female role models since her mom is almost totally absent. The main character, Natalie, did everything she could for Violet and for Maddox, the love interest and Violet's dad.
Sounds great, right? But in the end, Natalie's education is taken away by a poor story choice. I'm going with this being from the editor/publisher and "sell more books" aspect rather than the writer, as often authors don't get a say in a fair amount of this. Who knows, though. I can't read the author's mind.
Natalie speaks several times throughout the book about wanting to return to school and her future career ambitions. It is evident through the writing that she has her own dreams while also being loving, caring, and interested in the dreams of others.
When Natalie decided to sell her old VW bus, quit her nannying job, and return to school, I viewed it as a cathartic moment. I saw selling the car as a small yet meaningful way for her to move forward from her own childhood issues with her mother. Returning to school was another way to make her life what she'd always wanted it to be.
She was emotional about these choices, which makes sense from the catharsis angle. And, because change is often difficult, even when you do what you know will help you grow.
Maddox then decides to get her car repaired as a surprise gift, and she's like, "Okay, awesome." Not, "That's really sweet, but that's not what I want."
Maybe I misinterpreted her intentions, but at that moment, she seemed like a different character than the plucky one I'd come to enjoy.
At the end of the book, Natalie talks about having enrolled in school and arranging her schedule to pick Violet up. Then suddenly, she says she's pregnant.
She explains it's okay because they want Violet to have a sibling even though it's earlier than planned. Natalie would delay her education. This felt "off" and disingenuous.
Had Natalie even once talked about a strong desire to have a child (meaning a biological one), I'd be like, "Yeah, okay." But what she talked about enough to make it clear it was an important story element were her career ambitions. So, I'm left thinking, "Now she's not following her own dreams."
Even in my light and entertaining books, I don't care for women giving up their plans for love.
Yeah, the pregnancy was an accident, but it seemed unnecessary, like a way to appeal more to an audience or supercharge the fairy tale aspect of the story. Or, maybe Natalie wasn't as driven about school as it seemed, in which case some rewriting to make that less confusing would've been a good thing.
But, since this is a book, it didn't have to be that way. This book was damaged by a lack of editing.

Lightweight fluff with a formula
This review is for all 3 books in the series
It’s a really light formulaic fluff where we follow three brothers and their search for happily ever after.
There is little cussing, except for the occasional F-word but mostly during sex scenes. Yes there is sex in all of the books, but rather Igor compared to many other books in the same genre.
There is however a formula - light spoiler alert:
Absent mother or two (every book) - what’s with that?
Fathers are stable and know best (???)
Montana is best (…ok?)
Holiday brother is irresistible
Light soul searching
A baby before, during or in the end.
Women can have careers (yes!)
And the Christmas party.
I felt the formula and the “oh, this again” during books 2 and 3,
I can’t really say the books are bad, as I listened to all 3 of them, but as they were included in my membership I didn’t have to pay extra. I’d have only listened to the one and perhaps returned if it I’d spent a credit.
It was however a perfect fluff to listen to whilst having the flu.

for very straight people
the story is cute. the plot and stuff or whatever. it's a cheesy concept. nanny for hire who needs money to fix her car, rich guy, devil child. I'm sure you can guess what happens.
This is for straight white people for sure. Typical tall blue eyed blonde with flat stomach (yes they point that out in the book lmao) and slender legs (yes they point that out also) duck boot wearing girl. With a chiseled tall generic looking rich white guy. There's just no variety for sure.
at least they have decent narrators.
i couldn't finish this book. it was just so cringe to me.

Great narrator, story pedestrian and dull
Delightful narration was the only redeeming factor for this dull, overly sweet story. There was zero tension and excitement in the storytelling and the outcomes and ending were so predictable as to make it difficult to concentrate on. All characters two dimensional save the protagonist who might make it a tiny bit further if only because it’s obvious the reader is meant to relate to her. I’m all for wish fulfilment writing, but this fell flat. If you’re into a sweet story with little to challenge you, you’ll find this fun, the narrator is quite lovely and I liked listening to her.

if you’re into holiday insta-love… check elsewhere first, but this is …fine
With any obstacles this main character encounters, they overcome it “off-screen” nearly instantaneously. Case in point being the Love Interest’s demon child being tamed with candy, which is so unrealistic. What child who is consistently spoiled rotten and (arguably) emotionally neglected going to be won over by ONE bribe of a bag of candy? (Like ONE BAG. The child deliberately smashed a vase of roses at the new nanny and then the next day was calmed by a single bag of candy.) Also, what child’s long established behavioral issues are going to be calmed by a sugar rush?
One day the love interest can’t even recognize the nanny and the next day they’re throwing themselves into weird stand offish confrontations saying that the main character is “mine”. instantaneously. And the only build up for this was looking at high school yearbook pictures and remembering the main character in their high school bathing suit uniform. OK. Sure.
Personally I did not find it nearly as cute as the premise promised, even the childcare scenes (which were a fun draw for me) were short, weirdly stunted, and felt absolutely contrived.
If you want a very-quick fix of holiday “cuteness”, insta love, “alpha billionaire”, and you don’t care about plot, inconsistencies, or character development, then this is for you.

Maddox & Natalie
A sweet and charming journey to go on with Maddox, Natalie and Violet. I absolutely adored this story.
Vanessa Edwin and Aaron Shedlock did a wonderful job of bringing these great characters to life.

Nothing really happened…
I wish it was longer. When it said epilogue I thought that something had gone wrong. There weren’t enough character relationship developments for my liking!

🎧 Natalie and Maddox 🎧
I read this one on KU last year, and had to listen too when I spotted the audio.
Steamy, snow laden, hot-for-nanny, single father, holiday romance, featuring a demon-turned-angel child and the ex from hell... what's not to love?

nice until the unnecessary explicit scenes
I did like the story of this book but I wasn't expecting the explicit sex scenes, I thought they were unnecessary and actually detracted from the story, I had got the other two books in this series but I don't think I'll be listening to them based on this one

Just perfect
What a great short story full of romance. Yeah it’s cliche but isn’t that why we want a fictional romance to swoon and believe in wonderful moments and the romance of when it’s right it’s right. This is one of those books
Great job by both narrators thoroughly enjoyed listening to them.

Story
When Ben Winters and Lara Cottridge hear that a Vermont radio station is hosting a Christmas contest with a $10,000 prize for a charitable project of the winner’s choice, they seize the challenge. Although strangers, they both are obsessed with all things Christmas and each has their own worthy pet project in mind. News of the contest creates a lot of buzz, but most participants fall at the first hurdle - a timed online quirky Christmas quiz. The second, an on-air quiz whittles the field down to two - Briarhill Falls residents Lara and Ben, who are surprised that they have never met.

Story
When Marlo is unceremoniously ghosted by her part-time lover, she decides she’ll need to avoid the whole Christmas season. That is actually pretty easy in this country, because it’s so hot and so far away from anything that means Christmas to her. But Marlo’s flatmate Alex is determined to lift her out of her grinch slump and convince her that Christmas Down Under may be unfamiliar, but exactly what she needs to start her life on a new course.

Story
What a disaster! I only just made my flight to New York to help my uncle, and the phone I'm holding is not mine! It seems to belong to some commitment-phobic serial dater who's never made it past four dates (according to the constant notifications he's getting from his fake dating profile).... And worse? I have a sinking feeling it's that hot suit-monkey with the arctic grey eyes I just had a run-in with at the airport. Somehow, I have to persuade him not to get a new phone until I get back. My whole life is on that phone. I knew I should have backed it up. It's only a few days. Surely, we can handle it.

Since he’s always remained cordial with his high school sweetheart Sara Schwartz, he gets back in touch and asks her to be his plus one. And if he’s being honest, it’s a good excuse to see her again...since he’s never quite forgotten her.
