Helena and Kiernan’s story was a fast paced, intense, steamy as hell and super sexy short read, written by the amazing author, M.K. Moore 🙂
This short read was definitely an excellent start to a new series in this new year and I’m already very excited to see what’s in store for us next from this incredible author!
Now, this story guys, well it’s also beautiful because it portrays that you don’t have to beautiful in what society deems fit, for true love to find you. It also shows that even when you doubt yourself, something like fate or in this case 😉 putting yourself up for auction (fiction guys, ha, ha) can lead to the love of your life, like it happened to our beloved couple, Helena and her man, Kiernan 😉 <3
This was truly another excellent story and the ending was as always, AMAZING! Kiernan and his woman, Helena's happily ever after was beautiful, funny, passionate but above all, filled with immense love; the love we all hope to find one day too 😉 <3
This book so reminds me of me and my boyfriend. We met thru the internet and a year later we met and just got done to business 5 minutes after meeting each other lol. We have been together 12 years now. Only difference in this story and mine is, we only have 1 child together but I have 2. Been together 12 years, live in Tennessee met on the internet and so many other things but cannot remember, lol oh yeah a 9 1/2 year age gap lol. The story made me look at my memories again and it was quite fun going down memory lane. I cannot say I hated this nook, I actually LOVED it. I actually recommend this book.
Whoa…this one was hot!!!
I enjoyed this book immensely. Quick, safe, sweet read. Definitely on my re-read list.

Love reading this author. She always writes great stories, hot, steamy love scenes, lovable characters.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Helena enters the Christmas Auction for a husband. A business deal. She successfull, smart, but longs for something more. Kiernan sees the woman of his dreams in Helena. This is a fast hot read about two perfectly imperfect people made for each other.
Helena has a good family, works hard but life just isn’t what she hoped. Being a bigger girl with curves and no social life means finding a husband is near to impossible. So why not be incredibly impulsive on Christmas and sign up for a wife auction. Kiernan spots Helena on stage and it is magic. He will stop at nothing to possess her. When Helena sees the man who won her hand, she wants to pinch herself. How lucky can one girl get?
M.K. Moore knows how to wrap up a late Christmas present for fans of safe, sweet, hot romances! Helena is a fun character, smart and fun just hasn’t had any opportunities to meet someone. She takes the opportunity the Christmas auction presents to change the course of her life. Kiernan doesn’t expect to spot the perfect woman at the auction. He hasn’t been a perfect guy but he has good reasons for his drive and ambition. The two of them are magic together! The time I spent with these characters passed way too fast. I could happily have spent several hours watching their lives blossom now that they have found their soul mate! 5 stars for the sweetness that is Christmas Auction!
