About this listen
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Julie Murphy and USA Today bestselling author Sierra Simone who gave us A Merry Little Meet Cute comes a new holiday rom-com—’tis the season for second chances!
What happens when there’s no room at the inn and you and your potentially demonic cat become roommates with your grumpy one-night stand?
Part-time adult film actress/one-time adult film director/makeup artist Sunny Palmer has accidentally sold her very first screenplay to the Hope Channel. That was six months ago. Fast forward to a looming deadline, an uninspired Sunny has returned to the source of her inspiration in Christmas Notch, Vermont, to immerse herself in the local Christmas miracle on which her fever dream of a movie pitch was based.
Isaac Kelly, former boy band heartthrob and the saddest boy in the music biz, is the latest owner of the town’s historic mansion. After his years of heartbreak following his young wife’s death, Isaac’s record label is done waiting for new music. What better place to attempt his first holiday album than a snow-covered mansion where he can become a hermit in peace?
But after their best friends’ wedding leads to them waking up together in a freezing motel room with questionable wiring and a broken shower, Isaac takes a chance and asks Sunny to stay with him at his home. Surely the place is big enough that he’ll hardly see her or her unhinged cat. But when the two discover they’re both creatively blocked, they make a handshake deal: Isaac will help Sunny hunt down the truth behind the local lore, and Sunny will find Isaac a new muse.
And with these two opposites under one roof, there’s no way this jingle bell mingle could go off script…right?

Story
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.

Two weeks before Christmas and all through Manhattan, shop windows are decorated in red and green satin. I'm standing alone in front of the famous Vivant department store, when a charming man named Aiden asks my opinion of the décor. It's a tragedy in tinsel, I say, unable to lie. He asks for a better idea with a twinkle in his eye. Did I know he owned the place? No. He put me on the spot. Now I'm working for that man, trying to ignore that he's hot. But as a down on her luck girl with a difficult past, I know an opportunity when I see one—and I have to make it last.

We only manage to find it with the help of a sexy gas station owner who offers to come for me if I call him. Swoon. I quickly learn that Shepherd isn't actually human; nobody in town is. News flash—he's a gargoyle—a dominant, possessive, crème brûlée-loving monster. That should terrify me, but something about him keeps me coming back.

Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

In truth, it probably didn’t help that I showed up dressed like an elf but that’s a story for another time. Our start was rocky at best which is why it’s so frustrating that I can’t stop thinking about his sexy British accent. Or the way his chest and arms fill out his suit. Or his perfect hair with that single streak of grey at the front.

I'm writing this letter because it's highly doubtful I'll ever garner the courage to say this to your face. So, here goes. We're totally wrong for each other. You're the proper single mum with a good head on your shoulders. I'm just the carefree British doctor passing through town and temporarily living in your converted garage until I head back to England. But here's the thing... for some bloody reason, I can't stop thinking about you in very inappropriate ways.

Story
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
In one second, my life disappeared. My past. My memories. My future. The only certainty I have from the last three years is that my older brother is dead and that I am the only eyewitness. In order to protect the case, the lawyers demand no one give me any information about my life...I must remember on my own. My only help comes from my brother’s best friend and world-renowned investigative reporter Spencer Cross. He has no idea how many nights I’ve spent dreaming of his name—and his body—next to mine. Each day we spend together, I find it harder to want my old life back.

Story
There are a million reasons why I shouldn’t date Fletcher Huxley. He’s a growly-faced, stubborn-streaked, international rugby legend trying to revive his flailing career in the US after being canned by his team overseas. While he might have the good kind of thunder thighs, intriguing tattoos, and a booty of steel, he also holds the top position on my very short nemesis list thanks to what happened the first time we met.

Story
Keyanna “Key” MacKay is used to secrets. Raised by a single father who never divulged his past, it’s only after his death that she finds herself thrust into the world he’d always refused to speak of. With just a childhood bedtime story about a monster that saved her father’s life and the name of her estranged grandmother to go off of, Key has no idea what she’ll find in Scotland. But repeating her father’s mistakes and being rescued by a gorgeous, angry Scotsman—who thinks she’s an idiot—is definitely the last thing she expects.

This was my favorite though. I thought I loved Nolan & B…. But Sunny & Isaac steal the show! Truly though, each couple bring something different to each storyline! Each book has little crumbs of continuation from the previous books with our favorite couples, giving us insight to how they’re doing and where they’re at.
This really wrapped up the series nicely and put a cute little bow on this festive read. This definitely gets a 10/10 in my book!
THIS SERIES IS GREAT!!

Audiobook 🎧 5/5. ❤️ Zachary Webber
Spice 🌶️ 5 of 5, Explicit & Plentiful
Slow burn 🕯️ < insta-lust
Humor: 🤣 Hysterical!
Season: Christmas! 🎄
Setting: Small town, Vermont
Trigger warnings: No. Sensitive topics handled deftly.
Standalone: No. OK to skip novellas, but book 1 is essential.
FMC Sunny, 30, obese, bi, bestie of Bee, the FMC of book 1. Make up artist, porn star, and now writing a screenplay. ADHD, orphaned when she was 16.
MMC Isaac, 35ish, widowed when he was 30, former member of boy band INK. Bi, loner/recluse, intense grief and depression. Moved from Malibu to Christmas Notch, contractually obligated to write one more album. Zachary Webber narrates this book; he’s done nearly all of Abby Jimenez’s audiobooks. I automatically associate his voice with Cinnamon Roll MMCs.
I was SO excited to be approved for the eARC by Avon & Net Galley. I had already listened to the first two full length novels in the series and 5 star LOVED them a few weeks ago. Everything was still fairly fresh in my mind and I saw it as my own special birthday treat to start reading it a week before it came out. Life, of course, got in the way and I couldn’t finish reading it before the release. I prefer audiobooks anyway and I happily bought my own copy on Audible, especially since Zachary Webber was one of the narrators. Joy Nash had done an excellent job with the previous audiobooks in this series, and this book was no different.
I was mildly confused at the start of this book referring to the threesome One Night Stand between Sunny, Isaac, and Jack Hart. Initially I was wondering if it was in one of the novellas I skipped. I now think it was briefly mentioned in book 1; Murphy & Simone are such great writers that they give the reader various sprinkles of info about that ONS that resolved my questions.
As an older millennial, obese, and with a recent diagnosis of ADHD (3 years ago) I felt really seen. Some authors really hit the reader over the head with things about ADHD or fat phobia. Murphy & Simone have a light touch and it comes across as neurodivergence acceptance and body positivity without being preachy.
This is likely the end of this series. 😭 If Murphy & Simone team up again how about an Autumnal/Halloween series? But only after Sierra Simone finishes her Lyonesse trilogy because waiting a full year just might kill me.
Fantastic ending to the series

But I've noticed a pattern with these books that I'm finding does dampen my joy a touch. I had high hopes for this third installment. And don't get me wrong, I do love the bi representation in this series! There's a lot to be said for that. But the fact that the full novels are all MF, hetero-presenting couples, and only the novellas are MM and FF is definitely a choice. They tee'd it up perfectly to be a MMF throuple. But it wasn't meant to be.
Or it was, but we were like 50+ years too late? And WWII robbed us of what could have been? You've gotta read it for those details, but I would definitely watch that movie!
That Photo Booth tho!
