Christmas Cake is the latest sweet and sexy holiday novella by Celia Aaron and it’s sure to put you into the holiday spirit. I loved Ezra and Adeline! He’s the grouchy, solitary, ritualistic man who has been hidden away in his mansion for years. She’s the beautiful, sexy, sweet baker who goes out of her way to help the people of her town. I loved watching Ezra’s cold outer exterior defrost because of Adeline. His awkwardness was both endearing and sexy, making me fall quickly for him. Aaron works her usual magic, creating the perfect holiday novella guaranteed to put a smile on your face and warm your heart.
I absolutely LOVED this story! One sitting and I couldn’t put it down. It was the perfect holiday novella for a cold night in my opinion. The characters were so lovable and perfectly flawed with their quirks. There were moments that had my stomach in knots and my heart in my throat with this storyline. I’ll definitely be rereading this book and I wish it was longer! I could definitely read more of these characters.
