Publisher's summary

Unwrap a steamy British gift this year....

I had a brilliant life, living in England where everyone knew me as just Ben, the massage therapist. Then my mother summoned me home, determined to marry me off. You see, I'm not just Ben. I'm Bennett Worthington Montague, crown prince of Mithoria, and my mother has arranged for every eligible aristocratic girl to compete to become my princess.

Does anyone care what I want?

But I'm planning my escape. When a mate offers to let me stay at his house in New Hampshire for Christmas while he's on holiday in Switzerland, I jump at the chance. But on my way there, I get lost. During a blizzard. Then a sexy girl rescues me.

A snowstorm, a hot tub, and a beautiful woman. Need I say more? We've only just met, but we can't keep our hands off each other. This might just be the best Christmas ever.

Unless someone tells my mother where I've gone.

One Hot Christmas is the sixth book in the best-selling Hot Brits series of romantic comedies.

Fun & Steamy Holiday Romance

This was such a delightful holiday treat! It definitely put me in the Christmas spirit. Ben and Sam were the best and their chemistry was spicy! This forced proximity, instant attraction, holiday royal romance will make you swoon, laugh and feel warm inside. Narrated by Shane East and Vanessa Edwin, this wonderful Hot Brits story comes to life. They were the perfect cast for the swoony crown prince, Ben and fun, lively ,Sam. Shane and Vanessa so talented and a joy to listen to. They are two of my favorite narrator duos. I loved Vanessa’s British male voice, so swoon worthy. Shane’s voice is just delicious all around. If you need a fun, stemay, feel good, holiday romance give this book a listen!

Perfect Holiday Romance

This book was the perfect romance to keep you warm during this holiday season. It is very sweet while being very steamy at the same time. Ben trying to get away from his life for a little while get stranded in a snow storm and meets Sam who rescues him and gives him a place to stay. These two have instant chemistry and hit it off. I loved all the family moments and it’s low on angst. Shane and Vanessa perfectly narrate this book capturing all the emotions and swooniest moments throughout this book. This one has become my favorite in the series and I highly recommend this one!

Perfect Christmas listen!

I am a sucker for a low-angst, super-steamy, small-town, royal, Christmas story with a perfect HEA and this book nailed it!! From the world of Anna Durand’s Hot Brits series, this charming story of instant attraction and almost love at first sight was exactly what this magical time of year calls for. And don’t even get me started on how perfect it was that the heroine rescued the hero! I loved it! Shane East and Vanessa Edwin are a favorite powerhouse narration duo and brought this whole cast of characters to life just as I imagined them. Well done all around and worth treating yourself to this darling holiday romance.

One Hot Christmas!

I enjoyed every moment of this book, well, except maybe when they went to the restaurant. I loved that Sam is the one to do the saving with Ben's car problem. They have an immediate spark and as they spend time together it's like they were meant for each other. Things get hot and heavy then all of a sudden they are surprised with some unexpected visitors. I really liked Ben's interaction with Sam's family and how it reminds him of how much he misses that type of connection in his own family.

Vanessa Edwin and Shane East are the perfect voices to bring Ben and Sam to life.

Fun-Sweet-Seggsy Christmas Story!

One Hot Christmas is sweet, fun, endearing, adorable, and deliciously naughty! Ben is an excellent book boyfriend, so it was truly a pleasure to listen to the love unfurl. He remains grounded, sweet, and irresistibly sexy even though he is under a tremendous amount of pressure and can see the life he wants slipping away. I really enjoyed the way they met, with Sam coming to the rescue. The forced proximity around the holidays with all of the uninvited guests makes for a great story that delivers all of the warm fuzzy feelings along with plenty of steamy moments to keep you on your toes.

Shanessa strikes again! Shane East & Vanessa Edwin deliver beautiful performances in this holiday romance you shouldn't pass up!

I received an #AdvancedListenerCopy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Fabulous, flirty instalove romcom

What a delightful Christmas gift from Anna Durand! One Hot Christmas is not only passionate, witty, fun, endearing and adorable, but it also has so much depth and heart that it's the perfect romcom for the holiday season.

Ben is trying to escape the royal family obligations that just don't appeal to his heart and soul. But when a road trip on the run goes awry, he gets rescued by Sam. Little does he know that she didn't just rescue him from a snow storm. Oh, no, she's going to rescue him from the life that he doesn't want to lead.

I love Sam and Ben's instant spark, their palpable connection, with chemistry that just leaped off the page. But there is so much more than the physical between the two of them. Their souls really seem to speak to each other, to search each other out. That recognition and connection makes them so close so quickly. I also loved how Sam's family provided such a strong counterpoint to Ben's family. Where Ben's family was about obligations and appearances, Sam's is about joy, fun and love.

The narration by Shane East and Vanessa Edwin is fantastic. They are both brilliantly cast. I'm a fan of both of them and have listened to many of their works. I think funny pondering Shane East just may be my favorite. Strong, supportive, determined Vanessa is definitely at the top of my list, too.

Sam+Ben - Royal/Close Proximity Romance

One of the things that I love about Anna Durand is that she isn't afraid to white about things that seem out there, yet with characters who are still so endearing. Another thing I love is that she very rarely messes with slow burns. One Hot Christmas was HOT from the very beginning. Ben and Sam just have instant chemistry and they really are quite into each other. Love the addition of Sam's family in this story too and the little check-ins from blast-from-the-past characters.

The audiobook was narrated by Vanessa Edwin and Shane East. #Shanessa4Life! I love this duo. They narrated the other Hot Brits books and my admiration for these two just grow each time I listen to one of their books.

Steamy holiday treat!!

One Hot Christmas by Anna Durand was quite the steamy royal audio treat! I have loved every book in this series, and was super excited to finally get Ben's story. Ben and Sam have this instant hot chemistry that will consume you to very the last minute of the book!

Shane East and Vanessa Edwin narrate this audio, and once again these two are simply perfection at bringing Anna Durand's characters to life. Shane East does a fantastic job at portraying all of Ben's royal, charming, and swoon-worthy personality. Vanessa Edwin conveys all of Sam's hesitance, passions, and desires brilliantly. Both narrators helped me envision and get completely sucked into this snowy holiday world.

Overall I loved this book! If you are love a Hot Brits story with a royal in disguise, a bold passionate woman, meddling parents, holiday traditions, restaurant steamy times, snowmobiles, holy hot tub, and HEA perfection, then you will adore Ben and Sam's story! If you are a fan of Anna's Hot Brit Series, then you will absolutely love this book!

Funny & Sweet Holiday Romance!

ALC Review*

One Hot Christmas is a charming & hysterical One Hot Christmas is a fun, hysterical fairytale romance. A holiday romance worthy of an annual re-read (or listen).

One Hot Christmas is the 6th book in Anna Durand's Hot Brits series, and it is without a doubt my new favorite! With a hilarious beginning in which the heroine rescues the dude in distress, I was hooked in the first few minutes!

Anna Durand's style, lovable characters, and steamy storytelling make One Hot Christmas a holiday must-read! I love Anna's writing and this lighthearted, low-angst, high-steam Christmas romance is absolutely delightful.

Ben is in need of a respite from family drama, so he escapes to New Hampshire for the holidays. But after a road map mix-up, our hero finds himself stranded and in need of rescuing. Sam is tired of the dating game and living a somewhat isolated life making a sweet inherited cabin her own and working remotely. Out for a ride on her trusty steed(er, snowmobile), she encounters a stranded stranger. Sam is the quirky, adorable, funny, gorgeous badass heroine Ben never knew he's always needed. Ben and Sam soon realize that a chance encounter could change everything. The chemistry sizzles in your ears between the intrepid MCs in this whirlwind escapade.

Chock-full of holiday fun, goofball relatives, witty banter, signature steam, and a whole lotta cheer, this audiobook should be at the top of everyone's Christmas list! A steamy twist on a chance encounter, forced proximity, love at first fireside glance romance. IYKYK. This is the heartwarming, adventurous holiday romp we all need. I was snort-laughing from the very start.

Shane East and Vanessa Edwin are perfect in this audiobook. They bring One Hot Christmas to life with their marvelous performances. Shane is hilariously charming in his narration of Ben. Romcom Shane embodies the stranded, mysterious, deliciously endearing stranger perfectly. Vanessa Edwin is witty, alluring, and utterly beguiling as Sam. Shane East and Vanessa Edwin are always a one-click narrator pair for me. They bring Anna Durand's words to life with lovely charm & smokin' hot style.
