Fired and arrested. What a way to kick off the holidays. Brandon earned every inch of the phallic surprise on his car, but that doesn’t mean Fate cares. You see, she and I have been battling for years. Things are looking up, though. I scored a break, and community service is my only punishment. After that, I’d be free and clear, right? Not. Volunteering at the first responders’ holiday party … Not.
Volunteering at the first responders’ holiday party should have been a breeze.
All I had to do was dress like an elf for the night.
I could do that.
But that would have been too easy.
Why? Because I’m Juni Mullen, and poor life choices and I are best friends.
What’d I do now?
Let’s just say Juni was doing a lot more than kissing Santa Claus.
And the man playing him?
My brother’s best friend.
Yeah, I know.
If you need me, I’ll be in the tub with a bottle of wine.
XOXO Juni

This was such a great Christmas love story! Juni & Dash were so absolutely perfect for each other!! I loved how he could annoy her and flirt with her at the same time. It was so endearing. I loved all the secondary characters, especially Karine & Sage (I’m seriously going to need them to get a book!)!!
Dashing Through The No
What a cute holiday story! Juniper aka Juni just can’t stay out of trouble. She is a kindergarten teacher arrested then set free with strange public service requirements!
Sage, her brother and Dashiell aka Dash, are hunky firefighters who all grew up together. Their families have been friends since they were babies. Juni can’t keep out of trouble from her ex boyfriend or her brother. Her crazy friend Karine has her own business promoting sex toys and is hilarious.
This is a light, sweet and funny story set during the holidays. Now of course it’s going to have its sexy parts , it is a romance after all. Some of the stuff that comes out of Juni and Karines mouths leave you choking with laughter and oh my goodness “ Grandma “ !! I love the way all the families blend in together.
Can’t wait until the next book because I just know Sage has one coming ! Merry Christmas and Ho, Ho, Ho!! ….pat….
This book was laugh out loud funny! I seriously didn’t want to put the book down and was sad when it was over. I did read this series out of order, I read Coming of Sage first but didn’t matter since they are connected but stand alone books. First, I love Juniper and Karine’s friendship, they are girls I would love to be friends with! Second, I think Dash and his calmness was a perfect balance for Juni and all her craziness. Third, I loved this series and hope there is more to come.
If you’re looking for a perfectly written romcom to steam up your glasses while simultaneously cracking you the hell up, you are in the right place! This new holiday themed release by KB Cinder had me drawn in from page one. Her descriptive play on words, irreverent R rated, quirky sense of humor and the perfect cast of crazy, colorful characters were the topping on the ‘ brother’s hot and sexy friend’ cake of a book. For me, the difference between a so-so romcom and a great one can be make or break, but this one had it all… witty, LOL goodness, spicy as sin with some VERY, entertaining story lines, all made Dash and Juni’s Christmas tale a must read novella for me.
Dash (catchy, huh?) and Juni, friends forever, ‘may’ have been secretly noticing how good the other has been looking lately! Of course, her brother is a natural born alpha caveman which could be a deterent if he wasn’t so busy with the never ending supply of ‘admirers’…but…you’ll have to read all the best parts yourself to find out how this story goes! I popped this open at bedtime last night, thinking I’d read just a few chapters (!!!) and then back first thing this morning to see how it all came together at the end. Soooogooood!
This may have been my first book by KB Cinder but I have no doubt after finishing this fun story, sprinkled with hot holiday goodness, that I’ll be reading her books again. Do I see some future books spinning off and waiting in the wings? Hope so!
I was given an advanced copy to read and enjoy. This is my unbiased review of it.
If you want a book that will have you laughing out loud and leave you giggling and smiling like a Cheshire Cat then this is the book for you.
The chemistry is electric and the banter is witty and flows naturally and once you add in the secondary characters you get the perfect rom com.

A holiday twist to getting involved with your brother’s best friend. Reading Juni’s story is just plain fun. This book is sure to provide the sweet comic relief that one needs during the crazy, busy holidays. I loved it! Juni is such a character, her life choices never seem to the right ones. Enjoy!

Dashing Through the No is a must-read holiday romance. This book will keep you laughing at Juni’s hijinks throughout the story. The characters are well developed, somewhat quirky, and relatable. The storyline is delightful and well written, with humour, families that have your back, chemistry, and wonderful romance.
I cannot wait to read more books by this author.

This is my first book from this author and I will be checking out more in the future this was a really good sweet holiday read it had a good interesting plot with enough going on to pull me in and hold my attention right until the very end. I enjoyed getting to know Juniper and Dash these two had me laughing out loud at times.
If there is one romcom Christmas book you need to read this year, stop looking this one is it. KB Cinder brings you a hot mess name Juni. She is loads of fun and is my soul sister. She has an unfiltered mouth that gets her in trouble, finally a character that has the same problem I do. Dash the everloving firefighter, that you just want to lick and claim for yourself, brings the heat in the book. I’m in love with him and I’m not ashamed. Mine! I love Cinder’s books, but by far this is my favorite one. She brings so many laugh out loud moments, I may have spit on myself while I was trying to enjoy my coffee. Her main characters were not only the stars in this book. The supporting characters were a hoot. You not only got to know Dash and Juni, but you also got to know their best friends and their families. I loved the interaction between them all. So get ready to download this book the day it releases, I promise you it will bring you fits of giggles, chuckles, and tingles.
This is the cutest story with hilarious characters along with a sweet hot romance. Juni gets cheated on by the boyfriend Brandon so she gets revenge by keying his car which lands her into community service as a elf at the firehouse Christmas Party. Her brothers best friend Dash is the Fire Captain and also Santa. Dash is a real hunk who has had his eye on Juni for a while and now that she is single Dash is looking pretty good the only problem is her brother. Loved this book and the characters were just too funny even the dog.

I can’t express how much I floved this book!
I’ve been trying to figure out how to write an epic review that will make y’all run and grab this book immediately.
So here goes,
Dashing Through the No is a “holiday”romantic comedy but it could be read at any time of year.
Juni is hmmm..such a colorful character but relatable.
She’s everything I want to be..at least for a day.
Sage is her very protective, overbearing, manwhore brother. He’s sexy and he’s knows it.
Dash is his best friend. A hot as sin, firefighter best friend..
Both of their families are so hilarious!
Every single character, well there’s two that suck, are so fantastic that you fall in love with them.
I’m so invested in their lives! I crave more.
The snark, puns, shenanigans are perfectly executed.
It’s a MUST READ for me and I hope for you as well.

I LOVED This Christmas Story!!! This was an awesome book that I really enjoyed. The story and characters grabbed me from the beginning and I couldn’t stop reading.

A definite must read for any fan and I can’t wait to read more from this author!!!

This book was an enjoyable read. It had me hooked from the start and I couldn’t put it down. It was a real page turner. It is a romantic comedy that had me laughing out loud. It had some hot and steamy scenes too. It is a brothers best friend romance and Christmas romance combined that finishes with a lovely HEA.

Dashing through the No by KB Cinder. OMG! This book was AWESOME!!! I loved the plot, the backstory, the characters, the setting, and the snarky humor. I went ahead and started stalking the author in hopes I can find out if and when Sage will get his story (I don’t want to miss that one). I was hoping for more of Dash’s POV but overall is was fine with just Juni’s POV (she is so relateable) I absolutely fell in love with her and her quirks. This is a one click must if you want a holiday romance with snark, escapades, nutty characters and a family that sticks together when you need them the most.
