Witty from the very first line of the book! I giggled quite a bit. I love the sarcasm and humor between the two main characters. I also adore their chemistry. Great characters! Super good book. Loved the ending and the spice was oh so good!

What a quick, fun, hot little trip with these two! Luke and Holly were delightful, I loved his grumpiness lol. This was the perfect story to get you in the Xmas spirit, I hope these two authors collaborate more in the future!

The Grumpy Billionaire Who Stole Christmas is a new Christmas novella by Lili Valente and Erin McCarthy. It's sexy, hilarious, fun and totally endearing. I loved this second chance romance about a billionaire Scrooge and the girl he used to know. Luke is back in his hometown, reluctantly. He hates Christmas and he's mad at the world. But when he sees Holly again, he thaws as fast as melting snow only after a short time in her presence. It's impossible to be mad around such a fun, sexy, witty woman. Holly can't believe her childhood crush is back. She's determined to cheer him up and remind him how much fun they had as kids. A snow storm turns an ordinary night into one with shenanigans, whipped cream, sexiness and so much fun. I laughed out loud and swooned. Looking forward to more from Luke's brothers!

My first holiday read of the season. And wow, was it a good one! The story starts off hilarious and without losing any lightheartedness, it also becomes sweet, romantic, and even downright steamy. It’s a short book, so feelings develop super fast, but the connection between Holly and Luke is so strong that it seems only natural for them to fall head over heels for each other. This was my first read from Erin McCarthy, but it won’t be my last, especially after that epilogue, which set up the next book brilliantly.
