HAVOC FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Home for the Holidays Series

Release Date: November 11, 2024

Review

A sweet start to the holiday season with young single dad Ollie and Windhaven transplant Ez.


With some meddling friends and an adorable little girl, these two find themselves spending time together. Something Ollie is in great need of. That boy is dedicated to his daughter, but it’s time he gets a little adult time too.


Ez is a wonderful man but he’s also struggling with his life trajectory. Thrown into running his mother’s dance studio, he could use a fresh start with Ollie.


It’s lowish angst but it’s not short on emotion and great characters.

Synopsis

Ollie and Ez need a holiday miracle before havoc gets in the way of happily ever after.


Single dad Oliver Branson has everything he could want in his simple, routine life. A beautiful daughter, a nice enough apartment, and a decent enough job. With the holidays fast approaching, he couldn't be happier. Except a new arrival in his peaceful small town turns his world and everything he thought he wanted upside down.


Ezechiel Billings, dancer and choreographer extraordinaire, was not built for small-town life. He arrives with a dozen boxes and plans to leave, but running his mother's dance studio ends up appealing to his unknown desire to settle down and create a home. Especially when a certain young single father catches his eye.


Determined to see these new dreams come to life, Ollie and Ez embark on a tentative relationship amid the festive atmosphere, but the chaos and stress of the holidays could very well have their home for the holiday fantasies crumbling before they even start. Will they get their holiday miracle, or will the ultimate gift remain just out of reach?


HAVOC FOR THE HOLIDAYS is a single-dad, small-town MM romance novella published as part of the Home for the Holidays Collective and can be read as a stand-alone novel. Featuring a festive holiday atmosphere, a precocious little redhead, instalove vibes, and a happily ever after that'll leave you swooning, you'll want to curl up with some cocoa to read this in front of the fire in your own home for the holidays, so click to order your copy today!

REVIEW: Breakthrough by Ana Ashley (Dads of Stillwater #2)

BREAKTHROUGH Dads of Stillwater - Book Two by Ana Ashley Release Date: October 11, 2022 Review Glad to be back in Stillwater, where the number of gay/bi single dads is high (must be something in the water)! Ana always writes lovely and thoughtful stories of beautiful men with depth. Milo and Ellis are no different. Milo is young and sweet but also strong and resilient. He’s been dealt many blows in life but never gives up. Especially when’s got an infant to care for. Ellis is an older kindergarten teacher. Steady, caring, and always ready to help out. He’s been hurt though, so he’s shy about the idea of dating, especially a much younger man. I loved both of them. They were both kind-hearted and wore their hearts on their sleeves, even if they didn’t think they did. I also loved that despite their ages and the imbalance in their financial situations, they also felt like equals. They both had something to bring to the table. The story has enough twists, turns, and emotions to feel comple...

REVIEW: 7 Minutes in Kevin by DJ Jamison (Games We Play #3)

  7 MINUTES IN KEVIN Games We Play - Book Three by DJ Jamison Release Date: November 10, 2022 Review I’ve really enjoyed this series of young friends finding love at the hands of party games. This third book has been teased in previous stories. That of Kevin and his immense crush on his friend's dad. With a significant age gap, Kevin’s insecurity over his gender fluidity, and Garrett’s job that has him on the road 3 weeks out of 4 every month, these two have a few hurdles to navigate if they want to get their happy ending. Though Garrett accepts his bi-sexuality with relative ease, there is still the need to come out and face how others will feel about it. I didn’t connect as well with these two as I have the others, but they still make for an enjoyable story that I have no doubt folks will love.  Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis 7 minutes in...holy heck, what have I done?! What happens when I return early from a work trip to find my son throwing yet another party?...

  PLAYING DIRTY Miami Piranhas - Book 0.5 by Beth Bolden Release Date: January 12, 2023 Audio Release Date: April 26, 2023  Review Oh my, these two are the definition of cute. Not animosity or rivalry. Just nice guys who want to see someone else do well. In the process of them lifting each other up and supporting one another, they find not just a friendship but a strong love. If you’re looking for something low-angst with two really adorable guys being young men, living their dreams, and finding love, then you can’t go wrong with Playing Dirty. It was also a fantastic audiobook. Narrated by Darcy Stark, he made it highly enjoyable, capturing them both so well. It really made my work day pass a lot faster.

He absolutely does not want Tristan Nicholson. His complete and total opposite. His teammate. His compe...
