A Curvy Girl & Alpha-hole Billionaire Boss Christmas Romance 24-year-old Holly Hart is a sweet and unassuming woman, lover of all things Christmas. She has always been sure of two facts since she got old enough to understand life: it was scientifically impossible she could meet someone who could make her sick of The Season to be Jolly and most of all, she was never ever going to meet a … never ever going to meet a man who would make her wish to change her permanent status from nice to naughty, but this Christmas is about to prove her wrong because she is going to meet both in the huge, hunky and sexy person of Xander Halls, the CEO of Halls Tech.
Barely 30-year-old and already a self-made billionaire, Xander is currently her major client and the absolute bane of her existence. Apparently, he doesn’t know the meaning of the word ‘no’ even though he is so fond of barking it in her face. She is pretty sure he could make Santa’s elves cry with a single well-placed glare and yet she can’t stop herself from gaping at him.
Throwing a Christmas party is Holly’s ultimate vocation, but Xander is arrogant, brooding, unsociable, and bossy and he is making things impossible for her. The stubborn bastard hasn’t got a single ounce of peace on Earth and good will to men to spare for her!
It seems no matter what Holly does or says, Xander has to contradict her. Veto should be his freaking middle name or Grinch, maybe — yes, that would work too.
All he wants for Christmas seems to be driving Holly nuts. She should hate the sight of him, but boy, the man can kiss and looks like sex on a stick or better yet: a candy cane she can’t stop herself from drooling over!
The more Xander bosses her around, pissing her off and looking at her with those killer baby blues that could incinerate mistletoe and melt snow —if Phoenix would be blessed with any, that is—, the more she wants him hanging his stocking all over her and trimming her Christmas tree with his own hot brand of decorations, way better than those bought at Tiffany’s!
Dear Reader:
This is a standalone, no cheating and HEA-guaranteed holiday marshmallowy-sweet novella with a secret punch, where naughty might even be wrapped-up in nice, but it’s still definitely there.
Bad things are about to be flagged on Santa’s list around here, ‘cause it looks like this kindle-melting Alpha is one Halls this Holly will have some trouble decking!
Get tangled in this intricate mess more than you do when attempting to unravel strings of twinkling lights. You won’t regret it and your Christmas this year will not only be bright but tropical hot too!

She may end up decking him before decking the halls for Christmas
Deck me up is a very sweet and sexy Christmas themed romance between Holly and Xander. She loves everything to do with Christmas…..from the cookies and candycanes to the tinsel on a tree to all the wrapped gifts. Xander is not so much in the whole Christmas thing. They meet when Holly takes over planning a double event party when her boss has a car accident. Xander’s company, Halls Tech, is the client and he is more than demanding, infuriating, and a perfectionist. Nope he can be a full on nightmare at times. He even has her questioning her love of Christmas.
This was a fun and flirty story with a lot of wonderfully witty banter.

Holly and Xander have sizzling heat in this holiday romance. Holly is the lead coordinator for the Halls holiday party. Holly is really into Zander and she thinks that he’s into her but he blows hot and then cold. They have a very intense and dirty romance and she has thoughts that are funny, aggravating and sensual. Very sweet, mysterious and sexy read. I received an ARC copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Holly loves Christmas. She doesn’t care about that the Arizona heat in December, well except when she steps into it. But Christmas is her jam, so when she is all of a sudden the lead coordinator for the Halls double holiday party she is freaking out. The stories she is hearing about the billionaire are not helpful.
But meeting Xander only intensifies her anxiety for a whole other reason.
The majority of the book is told in Holly’s POV, so it is not clear what is going on with Xander until the very end. Xander had already pre approved the plans, so why only ten days before Christmas is he suddenly against it? But Xander hot and cold attitude? First he kisses her and demands she redo the whole party. Then he shows up at her home and practically kills her bestfriend with his glare. Its the attraction that is confusing her most these days. The romance is intense and dirty. The thoughts running through her head are funny, aggravating and sensual. A trip to New York was a rouse only a misunderstanding has her lashing out and fleeing back home, where she eats, cries and worries about her job and the love she left behind.
The book is sweet, sensual, mysterious and interesting

They are both for Xander who is a rude but sexy and knows everything billionaire. He is the reason for every headache and sleepless night that Holly has. He thinks he knows just how to seduce and keep her. He finds out that he does not know everything about this woman who has captured his heart. The characters had lots of sparks between them.

Sparks fly in this story and the characters sizzle. It’s only told from Holly’s point of view until the end so I feel it would have been great to have Xander’s side at some point before that. It’s steamy and a great way to settle down and decompress.
I really enjoyed this story. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 is because it was all told from h POV until the epilogue. This is just a personal preference of mine. I usually only read dual POV because I want to know what the H feels and thinks. Now, having said that, it may not have been as good if you got his POV throughout. You just have to read it to know what I’m talking about. No others after meeting, virgin h, H has been celibate for a while, no abuse, epilogue 4 years later.
Story was very well told and the ending had me just swooning.

I think this is another beautiful book with a fantastic storyline and sometimes fickle. Xander hires Holly for a Christmas party as well as a party for his 15 year old sister’s birthday. The frustration part is when he keeps rejecting everything Holly suggests, despite his sister’s liking it.
Despite Holly not knowing why he is acting this way and that is that he wants her.
The characters are great and I really liked the chemistry and the attraction between them. It’s a great story, if you want to know more,
I advise you to read this book, especially at this time.

Oh, the heat is HOT, and the physical chemistry is captivating so be careful you may just get burned all the heat coming off these pages. There were some “oh no” “oh wow” ” what the what” moments and add in uncanny mishaps, and shenanigans the good kind that makes you keep turning the pages till last page has been turned. Holly has a responsibility of a double event party due to her boss’s car accident, but she isn’t used to dealing with demanding, entailment, and perfect billionaire and nothing she does is good enough for said billionaire. Keep in mind a person can only be pushed so much and so far, before they either break or push said billionaire back which is what she did she let him have it with his unreasonable demands and condescending attitude towards everything and everyone. Yet, she isn’t ready to give up on him there is something there she can see showing her he is a better person but she going to have to dig through it all to see is it a job she up to doing or will it just be a job or possibly the end of her career or is there happiness in the works for the two of them?
This was a fantastic storyline, and utterly frustrating at the same time. I absolutely loved Xander’s character as infuriating, arrogant and good looking as he was, he’s still just a man looking to love someone and be loved in return. Holly as sweet as she was, she definitely had her breaking point. Even though Xander’s intensions were well placed, he forgot a man never really knows what’s going on inside a woman’s mind. This was fun, with a dash of mystery that made this a very entertaining holiday read.

I thought that this was a really good book. I really liked the chemistry between Xander and Holly. Xander instantly taken with Holly and comes up with a plan to try and keep her close but in the end it back fired on him. But don’t worry, these two get a really sweet HEA. I thought that this was a cute story and I would recommend it.

Holly is supposed to coordinate an elaborate party for a cranky billionaire. When she has her first meeting with Xander, he does nothing but disagree with everything she has planned. Little does she realize that she is what he wants in his life.
