Mirrigold: Mutterings & Musings

Once Upon a Sexy Scrooge by Ella Frank & Brooke Blaine

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely LOVED this novella from Brooke and Ella. It’s a no angst, swoony and sweet festive romance between two complete opposites.

The sparks fly from the off when Max visits Micah’s Christmas Tree farm hoping to get his signature on a sale document but while the welcome is less than friendly, these two men end up stuck together when a blizzard stops Max returning to New York.

What follows is a funny, heart-warming tale of how Scrooge (Max) finds his Christmas joy again within the wonderful family that helps Micah run the farm and in the cosy and friendly little town that embraces him with open arms.

Seeing Max open up from the business driven, repressed and closed off man he is when he first arrives at the farm, through to him realising that family is more than a nanny and a new money-making scheme is a lovely journey to follow.

The sex is smoking hot, as you’d expect with these two but it’s the hot chocolate hug feeling that you get from reading which makes this book a joy.
