If you read only one Christmas novella this year, read this one.
Quotes:
"Any longer and I'm sure we'll both want to electrocute ourselves with the Christmas lights."
"Sounds like a festive way to go."
A shocked silence falls over the room. I expect it's the calm before the storm. And man, I've never been so excited for a storm. I snuggle into Seb's side. "Oops." I spread my left hand over my husband's chest, flashing my ring for the room to see. "Did I forget to mention that Sebastian's my husband?"
"You look at her like my daddy looks at my mommy. And they're super happy together. So, I'm going to say yes. She is lucky to be married to you."
"And if you feel like killing someone, I'm not above stabbing Adam's gingerbread man with a toothpick."
"Excuse me?" Seb raises a brow at me. "Didn't you say you have a tradition where you make gingerbread people in everyone's likeness for Christmas?"
Wow, I mentioned that once, weeks ago. This guy listens. "Uh-huh," I reply.
"Well, I'm bringing a new tradition." Seb shoots me a cheeky grin. "Voodoo cookies for anyone who upsets my wife."… (altro)

.75 star. it's just full of cliched writing (although for sure it could have been worse) and the i've-known-you-for-two-weeks-and-love-you-more-than-life-itself blech that i can't stand, plus a boss/employee power dynamic that i hate and was never really discussed as a realistic issue. there were a couple of good lines here and there but in general the voice and tone didn't work for me at all.
Read the blurb I guess. Boss/employee.
