Review:
What is better for a chilly autumn evening that a heartwarming and sexy novella from one of your favorite authors? Well, I can tell you that this new addition to the Carly Phillips lineup is one that will light your fires and keep you warm while also giving you a reminder of why we love the Sterling family and their friends so much as we wait for the next addition to their series. Brandy Bloom is the assistant to Samantha Dare and she is getting ready for a new venture in life as she moves with Samantha to the new office of their PR firm now that Samantha is happily married to Dex Sterling. But before she moves on, she is determined to finally put the moves on her sexy coworker at their office Christmas party—but little does she know that his gorgeous twin is going to be even more enticing. When Max Corbin’s twin brother Stephen invited him to his office party, he isn’t sure why he agreed to show up, but Max’s life changes forever when he sees the beautiful and alluring elf under the tree, and he is determined to make her his own. Brandy and Max soon discover that their attraction is so much more than just chemistry and the pull between them is going to mean more for their futures than they could have ever imagined—if they can let go of their fears and embrace the Christmas gift that has fallen into their laps. I absolutely loved this story of instant attraction, sweet lust, and a love that neither of these two ever wanted or expected that we can see is going to develop into something beautiful. While the story might seem familiar due to familiar tropes, Carly as always makes her characters unique and gives them such life that you can’t help but fall in love with them. Brandy has so many issues and fears that you feel for her immediately and are rooting for Max to get a chance to heal her heart even as you want her to open her mind. Max is a great character, one of those guys that has taken far to long to see the light and is finally finding his way in the world, but that you know if going to be a great partner for Brandy. I am looking forward to seeing more of them in future Sterling Family stories and hope their holiday passion leads to a lifelong love. Thanks for the holiday loving, Carly.
