Happy Holidays!
Today is Day 15 of my holiday reading recommendations.
I'm sharing a couple holiday novellas today!
First book is Holiday Wishes by Jill Shalvis!
This is Book #4.5 in Jill's Heartbreaker Bay series and can easily be read as a standalone.
About the Book
It’s Christmastime again in Heartbreaker Bay!
When Sean O’Riley shows up at the Hartford Bed & Breakfast for his older brother’s bachelor weekend, he’s just hoping to make it through the weekend. What he’s not expecting is to come face to face with the woman he lost his virginity to a decade ago—a woman he’s never really forgotten.
The last time Lotti Hartford saw Sean, she told him she loved him while he said nothing. Now, ten years later, she’s just looking for a good time. For once, she wants to be the wild and free one, and Sean – the good time guy – is the perfect candidate.
But as the weekend continues, Sean realizes that after a lifetime of being the hook-up king, he’s ready to find happily-ever-after, and he wants it with Lotti. But will she open her heart to him again? As Christmas sweeps through the little B&B, he can only hope love and magic are in the air.
My Review
HOLIDAY WISHES is a short and sweet read full of love, romance and second chances.
Sean was a former ladies man and now a newly-minted stand-up guy. He's messed up a lot in his life and his brother Finn has always been there to bail him out. Now, Sean wants to be that reliable, dependable guy. He's got everything planned for his brother's wedding, including the bachelor/bachelorette parties. Everything is going smoothly until Sean comes face to face with his past. A past that's haunted him ever since he broke Lotti's heart.
Lotti is ready for a two week vacation in the sand and surf of Cabo. A few more days and she's on her way. She's got a lot of emotional baggage and is looking forward to leaving it home. Little does she know, Mother Nature and Fate, it seems, have no intention of giving Lotti her well-earned vacation. Lotti thought she had enough man problems... until her first love walks into her family-owned B&B with a killer smile and an irresistible charm too tempting not to fall for.
Sean and Lotti run through a lot of emotions and a lot of history in this short read. In the beginning, I wasn't too keen on either of the characters. I thought Sean to have an ego and Lotti was too tough. As I continued to read, I realized there was so much more to the characters and they weren't at all what I first thought.
If you're looking for a quick read in between all that holiday shopping, HOLIDAY WISHES is just the read for you!
