About this listen

Red, White & Royal Blue meets The Nightmare Before Christmas in a sexy, quirky rom-com where the golden-hearted Prince of Christmas falls for the totally off-limits Prince of Halloween.

Nicholas “Coal” Claus used to love Christmas. Until his father, the reigning Santa, turned the holiday into a PR façade. Coal will do anything to escape the spectacle, including getting tangled in a drunken, supremely hot make-out session with a beautiful man behind a seedy bar one night.

But the heir to Christmas is soon commanded to do his duty: he will marry his best friend, Iris, the Easter Princess and his brother’s not-so-secret crush. A situation that has disaster written all over it.

Things go from bad to worse when a rival arrives to challenge Coal for the princess’s hand…and Coal comes face-to-face with his mysterious behind-the-bar hottie: Hex, the Prince of Halloween.

It’s a fake competition between two holiday princes who can’t keep their hands off each other over a marriage of convenience that no one wants. And it all leads to one of the sweetest, sexiest, messiest, most delightfully unforgettable love stories of the year.

A Macmillan Audio production from Bramble Books.

was not disappointed.

I was not disappointed and my expectations were high, it's a perfect book for both holholidays and a good blend of holiday magic and reality.

Fantastic MM Holiday RomCom

This book will be on repeat in my head all season long and much longer after the season has passed. I loved everything in this story and cannot recommend it enough. I don’t want to say goodbye to these characters at all. I love them so much and will miss them until my rereads.

Even better than expected!

I found this book on TikTok and I was looking for a cozy read to get me in the holiday spirit. I’m not at all a romance reader, but this book’s characters and world captured me. I had to get my husband to read it and he also loved it! We really saw ourselves in the characters. As queer men, we love the representation. I’m eagerly awaiting the continuations.

Cute!

Imagine Red White & Royal Blue but with the princes of Christmas and Halloween. A bit more palace intrigue than I wanted and less magic than I hoped for, but overall the romance is cute. Great narration.

Communication

This book is absolutely amazing! the open communication between Hex and Cole is such a refreshing concept! It has just the right amount of spice and sweetness. I can't wait to get my hands on the second book! If you love boys love this is a great book for you.

All consuming

Okay... so I finished it in one go. I don't think a "love" scene has ever made me cry before because of how beautiful it was. The absolute DEVOTION. The yearning!! I'm speechless. I can't. Sara Raasch has managed to write the most beautiful sex scenes that literally give meaning to the term "making love" while still being deliciously spicy. AND THE NARRATOR!!!! Ellis Evans portrays the emotions of each scene SO WELL!! He seems to throw his whole body and soul into the reading. I'm simply floored by how consuming this book was. I was literally shaking while listening to it. I'm bouncing off the walls for the next one!!

Not too Spicy

This book is very intimate and refreshing when you’re looking for a book in between reads.

The chemistry between the characters is *chefs kiss*

The plot is okay but I did enjoy how everything wrapped up. Cute Christmas/Halloween read 😉

The voice acting

The story was told with feeling and emotion. That’s what I love in audio books. When it dosent feel like a book but a movie.
