I’m not gonna lie, I did it for the cover. Have you seen how pretty it is and how hot both of them are? Yes well I was sold. And joy of joys, the book was equally delightful and I enjoyed every  minute of this sleigh ride.

It is as bananas as a lot of the holiday novellas I’ve been consuming but so endearing and even with its short length (no pun intended) it is a satisfyingly complete story with a bit of a medium burn. It’s sweet and so freaking hot you guys. And even with the candy cane 🐓 and peppermint, umm fluids and a lot of related klink, it somehow just works without feeling gaggy in any way. And I don’t even like peppermint! See you can be ott sxxy without putting the reader off. Grumpy hot Dragon Santa falls for curvy little pink Cupid while trying to find her love and teach her the art of seduction? Family of cupids? Dragon reindeer? Count me in. 

I can’t wait for Mr Valentine to be bitten by the love bug!
