Holy Hell what a novella I just read! I can’t wait for Christmas it is my favorite time of year. I love all the holiday decorations and I love the smell of a fresh cut tree but most of all I love the love in the air. I love watching couples come together and do things like pick a tree, choose decorations, and look at each other with that look of love in their eyes.
Harlow knocked it out the park with Gabi and Jax. They both were troubled and hurt but when they came together and let go they were an amazing couple. I loved how Gabi just knew she had found her forever even though she was going through a rough time in her life she had found her forever. Jax God he was a man tortured by his past and did not believe he would ever find his destiny his girl but he did and when he found her he fought hard to keep her and take care of her.
This novella will warm your hearts as well as your pants tehehehe so go out and one click it and have a great read!

This was a great mix of holiday romance reads where there was something for everyone and if you didn’t like one story you had plenty of others to choose from. I think my favorites of all were by Alyne Hart and Larissa Gail and both the women were feisty and head strong and the guys were Alphas but oh so dense at times in regards to women at time. There are plenty of laughs, head shaking, forehead slapping, sighing in contentment and so much more in this box set so I recommend you get comfy as you will be sitting for a while to get through all these great reads!
Nothing like a wonderful holiday…
I enjoyed reading this book. Was a wonderful read throughout. Perfect holiday book to read and enjoy while snuggled up with a hot drink. The characters pull you in and make you want to read more. Keep it coming…

Loved this quick read by Harlow Layne. It is included in the Spiced Holiday Kisses’ anthology. Gabi and Jax meet unexpectedly when she crashed her rental car on her way to her friends’ house during a storm. Both are immensely attracted to each other. Because of his ex girlfriend and the scar on his face, Jax fights his attraction. He doesn’t feel worthy of Gabi. However, Gabi finds him very sexy. The longer the power stays off, the more they learn about each other. Can a famous singer and a small town guy share a future? Beautiful story!!!
Gabi has been dumped by her band and gets into an accident on the way to her friends house. Jax finds her unconscious and hurt. He helps her and takes her home to heal. Jax has led a very quit life after he was hurt and left scarred. Gabi can’t believe this gorgeous man thinks he’s a monster. Can she convince him that she loves him?

I have only read one story in this anthology so far. It was the first book I have read by this author and I thought it was good. It’s a short story so the romance between Gabi and Jax moves quickly, but I thought the author did a good job of not making it feel too rushed. The characters were well written and I enjoyed the interactions between the two of them. I like anthologies like this because I get a chance to be introduced to new authors at a great price.

It tender heartfelt roller coaster of emotions as the plot unveiled and journey through the challenges in their relationship. The characters were likable and the storyline was fabulous.
This was a beautiful story… sweet and steamy all rolled into one! BUT… I just wish it was longer! I didn’t want it to end! I’m fervently hoping that the lovely author may revisit those characters later on down the track… fingers crossed 😉
I will definitely be recommending this to my friends… anyone willing to listen really!
I can’t wait to read the rest of the stories in this anthology… hope they’re as good as Harlow’s!
