Advent Reads Day 3: Scrooged by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward

  Welcome to Advent Reads!

This is an event I have had on my blog for several years running now.  Each evening I feature a different holiday themed book. Think of it as your Book Advent Calendar! I post a variety of holiday books including romance, children's, middle-grade, mystery, paranormal, and I try to find some that are other holiday celebrations than Christmas too. I hope you will stop by each evening to see what new book I have for you!


Read for: Recently Added/ Audio book

Synopsis: "NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHORS VI KEELAND AND PENELOPE WARD BRING YOU THREE SEXY SHORT STORIES TO HEAT UP YOUR HOLIDAYS!

SEXY SCROOGE

The Last thing I needed was to share an Uber with Scrooge - a cocky lawyer on a snowy Christmas Eve. It was bad enough I was on my way to court for the gift of eviction.

Although maybe today wouldn't turn out so bad after all.

The Sexy Scrooge and I started to connect as we trudged our way through a storm. Our ride was about to end. But would I ever see him again?

THE MERRY MISTAKE

Note to self: Ask Santa for glasses this year. When I accidentally mistook a gorgeous man resting outside my building for a homeless person in need of a lunch, we got into it. I'd only been trying to do a good deed around the holidays, but he called me righteous. I called him something far worse. If only I didn't have to see him again. But fate had other plans.

KISSMAS IN NEW YORK

It was just supposed to be a simple kiss with a stranger. I'd done it to prove a point - that I hadn't lost my sense of adventure. But you know what they about the best laid plans. Maybe I'd get something in my stocking after all this holiday season. . "

My Review: This was a fun book for the holiday season. It contained 3 short stories that give you all the hallmark Christmas feels but will fit into a busy schedule. I listened to the audio book and it was a quick listen. I think my favorite story was the second, Merry Mistake, it made me laugh so hard. Each story had a mistaken identity theme that leads to a comedy of errors, surprises and of course romance. I would love more for each of these stories but they are each an individual story that is satisfying to read. Each story also gives you all the cozy feelings with HEA endings.

My Rating: I really enjoyed these books, while I wish they were longer, they were still satisfying reads and fit perfectly in a busy holiday schedule. Definitely a book to listen to while gift wrapping or to read while waiting in the long post office lines.  I give it an overall rating of Four Paws!
