Book 774: Winter Wonders (Holiday Romance #1) – Leighton Greene

Geoff W

If you ever wonder what happens when you chose a series by the first book’s cover and title and commit to reading all of them without reading anything about them you end up reading a trilogy of MM Holiday Romance novels set in the Kink/BDSM community of Los Angeles. I read this as my 15th and (surprisingly) final book of my 12 Books of MM Romance binge. For some reason I assumed the whole trilogy was Christmas/Hanukkah based, but I definitely got that one wrong with Taming Tristan representing Valentine’s Day and Star Spanked representing Independence Day, so here we are.

Book 773: The Christmas Deal (Festive Fakes #1) – Keira Andrews

Geoff W

I’ve said it before and I will continue to say it, if you give me a fake boyfriend/fiancé story and I will read the hell out of it. And that’s exactly what the 13th book in my 12 Books of MM Holiday Romance binge ended up being.

I hadn’t planned on revisiting Keira Andrews after enjoying Merry Cherry Christmas and Eight Nights in December, but I saw the description mentioning fake fiancés and an ex-marine, so you know I was going to read it. And then when you add in that apparently Andrews REALLY likes holiday romances, she has like dozens of them, it was inevitable honestly!

Book 772: The Remaking of Corbin Wale – Roan Parrish

Geoff W

And a bonus Hanukkah novel for what was initially my final book in the 12 Books of MM Holiday Romance binge. I’m capping it at 16 because that’s how many I apparently had already downloaded to my Kindle ¯_(ツ)_/¯. I honestly wasn’t paying attention and as I read and removed I added more. Don’t get me wrong there will be more MM romances, but I need to save the hundreds of others for future years, right?

I say this is a bonus Hanukkah novel because I had completely forgotten this one was Hanukkah rather than Christmas based. I saw it on a holiday list, recognized Parrish’s name and had to grab it. I read Better Than People earlier in the year and found it to be beautifully written and have had a copy of In the Middle of Somewhere sitting on my Kindle since then, so yeah of course I grabbed this.

Book 769: Christmas Angel (The Christmas Angel #1) – Eli Easton

Geoff W

On the 10th day of my MM Holiday Romance binge, I went historical with another Kindle Unlimited novella.

Christmas Angel takes us to 1750s London where we meet John, a tall, dark, and handsome detective of sorts, and Alec, an ethereal heartbroken wood sculptor. It also kicks off a series of work connected by the titular angel that span hundreds of years (see first quote in paragraph for the full list). I’ll probably read them all, but maybe not this year.

Book 766: A Guy for Christmas – K.C. Wells

Geoff W

A Guy for Christmas is #7 in my MM Holiday Romance binge and I grabbed it because I read a couple by Wells earlier in the year that I enjoyed (My Fair Brady and The Senator’s Secret) and a couple I was sort of meh on (Under the Covers and Out of the Shadows).

This cover reminds me so much of the Tucker Springs books I read back when I first started the blog. Seriously, go check out a few of the covers. I mean I know the covers don’t really vary that widely across MM romance novels, but it’s kind of eerie how similar this is to those. I think it’s the color of the fade outs.
