About this listen
Reason 17: The year Nana drank too much eggnog and threw up in my Guccis.
Isabel hates Christmas. She’s got a Christmas disaster for each of her 25 years. When her boss sends her from the sun-kissed beaches of Australia to snowy small-town Wyoming, it’s just another thing to add to her "do not like" list. Snow sucks. Christmas sucks. And cowboys suck most of all.
Except, maybe, for one....
Reason 21: The year my workplace secret Santa bought me tampons. From the bathroom vending machine.
Johnny loves Christmas. And it only gets better when he lays eyes on a grinchy brunette with the cutest accent around. She might only be in town for a few weeks, but he’s never been one to back down from a challenge. He’s going to right every wrong on her list to make her fall in love with Christmas.
And with him.
Reason 25: The year I fell for a sexy cowboy. Who lives on the other side of the world. What the hell do I do now?

Nothing prepares you for finding your sister’s lifeless body covered in blood. But when the police arrest her ex, a man I know is innocent, I can’t sit by and do nothing. Not when I’ve been secretly in love with him for years. Heath may not want my help, but I won’t take no for an answer. To catch a killer, I’m forced to take a job at Saint View Prison. Maximum security. The place they send the worst of the worst. But it’s not just Heath who doesn’t want me there. With every lie we uncover, every secret we expose, the danger mounts.

The quintessential question asked to every couple. And the answer is usually some bubbly, lovey dovey tale of being struck in the bum by Cupid’s arrow. My meet cute (well, not so meet cute) is slightly different. I was trolling a wealthy neighborhood in Beverly Hills, searching for someone to take me as their bride, you know, to make my arch nemesis jealous who consequently just fired me.

Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina, for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Commitment was never my thing. But I've been directionless for far too long. It's time to take on some responsibilities and get my life together. Bidding on my best friend's brother at a bachelor auction didn't help me with that. Neither did having a hot, secret fling with him. Too bad that didn't stop me. Because now I'm in way over my head. And I'm afraid I might not be ready for the biggest commitment of all. Love

I made a mistake that might have ruined someone's life. I've moved to Sydney to avoid the glares and the questions from the people back home, but there's one thing I can't run from--the guilt and pain that follows me relentlessly. All I can do is dull it with alcohol and casual sex. But then my new boss, Mr Dark and Delicious, deserted me, mid kiss, with my skirt hiked up and my shirt discarded on the alley floor. I should hate him—him and the secrets he's keeping. But I can't stay away. Because the pain and guilt he's hiding mirror my own.

I love Sofia and Aaron together!!!
Oh my goodness....what an adorable little Christmas/Holiday story. Whether you like to consume your holiday reading via ebook, paperback, or audiobook....I definitely recommend this one.
Aaron Shedlock and Sofia Lette are so adorable as Johnny and Isabelle. Sofia has such a beautiful voice and throw in that Australian accent and she is a perfect Isabelle. Aaron Shedlock has that relaxed tone to his voice and he is a great match with Sofia.
Isabelle is in the US for her job during the Christmas season and she despises it because she is not a fan of Christmas. She has a list of every reason why she doesn't like it and when she meets Johnny West he becomes intent on righting all the Christmas wrongs she has experienced. The whirlwind romance that forms was so fun.

Mehhhh it was ok…
This definitely wasn't my favorite book, and considering how short it was, I expected to finish it in a day or so, but it took me days. I just wasn’t excited to read it or listen to the audiobook. I don’t know why, but the story didn’t connect for me. The audiobook narrators did a good job; I just didn’t love the overall story. It was a bit too cutesy, insta-love for me. And there wasn’t much humor, either. The blurb made me think there would be more comedic moments, but there really wasn’t much going on within the story.

Sometimes salty and sweet don’t make a great treat
For a series under the moniker Dirty Cowboy, I expected a lot more sizzle and sass. Unfortunately, after the peppy meet-cute, the rest of the “I hate Christmas” romance was mild and sweet. There was zero conflict or energy until the end, and that was thankfully resolved with proper novella quickness.
The sex was decidedly more salty, and there are a handful of F bombs, so this is not the Christmas cozy
I was expecting. That’s probably my fault for buying based on the cartoon cover and not looking at the author’s other books. Even though though the sex is more detailed, I can’t say that sizzled for me either.
Ultimately, this was an okay romance with a good dose of Christmas activities, two or three naughty scenes for good novella value, and even an epilogue squeezed in. The duet narration served up her Aussie accent and his Wyoming voice perfectly.
