About this listen
A nice boy gets naughty…
Redheaded freshman Jeremy Cherry Rourke is certainly living up to his childhood nickname, although still being inexperienced is the least of his concerns. After coming out, his parents barely talk to him. He hasn't made any friends at university. Worst of all, he's about to spend Christmas completely alone in an empty dorm.
Jeremy clearly needs a fairy godfather, so football captain Max Pimenta takes him under his wing to help him find his dating groove. But Jeremy's wound way too tight. He's too vulnerable. Max can't trust some random guy with him. He needs to take care of Jeremy himself and introduce him to no-pressure exploration. It's not about romance or feelings—he's just doing the kid a favor.
Max is definitely not falling for this lonely, beautiful boy. No way.
And it's not like he can leave Jeremy all alone for the holidays. He'll bring him home to his family's maple syrup farm—strictly as friends since his parents have rules. No more fooling around. No more eager, breathless fun. No more making Jeremy shiver and blush with suggestive whispers in his ear. No more sweeter-than-sugar kisses. All nice. No more naughty.
But Jeremy's sleeping right across the hall, and Max wants him for himself. The twelve days of Christmas will last an eternity if they don't break the rules.
Shhh. No one has to know…
Merry Cherry Christmas is a feel-good holiday MM romance from Keira Andrews featuring a nervous nerd and protective jock, opposites attracting, first times, and of course a happy ending.

Story
I'm trapped in the middle of nowhere with the sexiest man I've ever seen... what could possibly go wrong? My family sent me here thinking it would help lift my mood. When I think about it now, I realise I didn’t give nearly enough thought to what it would be like, or what I’d be doing on a farm. If anything, I had a vague, nebulous notion that it would be like some sort of retreat. Boy, was I wrong. Far from relaxing, I now find myself tending to actual sheep. If you knew me at all, you’d know how preposterous that is.

Story
Sheltered in the palace with his books, Jem’s life is peaceful. Even if he’s lonely and yearning for romance, the big, strong men he wants don’t crave small, timid princes. Then he’s forced to marry a mysterious barbarian. Jem must do his duty—even if it means being stuck with Cador, a brute who dismisses him as weak. Even if it means a fake marriage in name only for the sake of their homelands. Even if he must leave behind everything and everyone to journey to a forbidding island of ice and stone.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year—except ex-Marine Logan is jobless and getting evicted. Worse, he’s a new single dad with a stepson who hates him. A kid needs stability—not to mention presents under the tree—and Logan’s desperate. Then he meets lonely Seth and makes a deal. Can Logan temporarily pretend to be live-in boyfriends to increase Seth’s chances at a promotion? If it provides a roof over their heads for the holidays, hell yeah. Logan considers himself straight—he doesn’t count occasional hookups with guys—but he can fake it.

This one was extra fun for me. I did my graduate degree at the University of Toronto, so this story felt like home. I’ve also lived in rural Ontario and we used to go to the maple sugar farm each spring to see the sap running. The entire story made me nostalgic – in a good way.
And the plot was great as well. I’ve landed on my ass after slipping on ice. Most Canadians have. Now, I didn’t have a Max to help me up, like Jeremy did. Or a Max to walk me home to take care of me. Or a Max to decide to show me how much fun sex stuff can be.
But I need to step back. Jeremy’s just come out to his family – who are back in Victoria, on the other side of the country. It didn’t go well, and he’s feeling particularly lonely as Christmas approaches. He’s not going home, and is facing the season alone in his dorm.
Max sees naïve Jeremy and feels the need to be the younger man’s wingman. Soon, though, Max realizes he doesn’t want to release Jeremy into the wilds of dating (aka the gay men of Church Street and dating apps). Sure, Jeremy might meet a great guy who sees how wonderful he is. Or he might meet a man who’ll take advantage of his inexperience. So Max decides to, uh, give Jeremy a hand.
Then, in the middle of their friends-with-benefits growing relationship, Max decides to bring Jeremy home with him. But no hanky panky. His parents have strict rules about that. So everyone has to stay in their own bedrooms at night. No touching. Well, okay maybe a stolen moment. No getting naked. Well, okay… Yeah, you can fill in the blank. Suddenly, keeping their hands off each other is nearly impossible.
I loved this story because I got my happy ending and I got to see the kinky Santa and his elf from a previous book. Looking good there, guys. I’m hopeful Jeremy and Max might have cameos in a future book because I really loved them and was so happy for them.
Finally, I have to mention Kirt Graves. He’s just a fantastic narrator and always does such a great job with Keira’s books. This is a treat I hope is repeated every Christmas.

Having read this in ebook form, I was not surprised by anything but dang, did Kurt Graves do a fantastic job.
So here we have Cherry, a freshman in college that one day runs into Max, a senior football star who steps on his glasses, making this a meet-cute trope that I love
So Max decides that he will help Cherry make friends and not die a virgin.
Y'all know what happens, these two numbskulls fall in love (yes it's instalove) and everything works out.
When I first read this, I was not sure why going out with someone was featured so prominently but the second time was the charm. I get it now.

This is the perfect holiday read/listen, adorkably sweet and sexy fun! Fairly low angst and absolutely hilarious. Keira Andrews is good at weaving a bit of humor through many of her stories – but I was seriously laughing out loud through much of this book. This was many of my favorite tropes – yet unique in a lot of ways. While Max is comfortably out & definitely sexually experienced, he’s also sensitive to Jeremy’s concerns and perspective.
I loved Max’s family, especially his relationship with his sister Meg. Fans of Andrew’s Santa Daddy will be treated to a cameo by Nick & Hunter who live in the neighboring farm. It’s not necessary to have read it to enjoy this, but if you like to read chronologically, you’ll want to start there.
This really is low angst with most of the drama coming from Max grappling with his after-graduation plans and Jeremy navigating a less than supportive family. While set in a very short amount of time (less than 3 weeks, I think) – Max & Jeremy do spend a lot of time getting to know each other outside the bedroom, which really solidifies their HEA. Andrews also gives us a lovely epilogue.
Kirt Graves was wonderful. He does a great job with the shy & bumbling Jeremy as well as the confident Max. It was just as fun and sexy as last year. This will definitely be an annual listen.
