Review: The Bachelor on the Shelf by Jana Aston

The Bachelor on the Shelf proved to be my favorite story in this second go-round in the world of Reindeer Falls. Carter Sheppard is a baseball star who has relocated for the time being to his hometown of Reindeer Falls to pick up the dog he inherited. Unfortunately, he has a little bit of bad press going on right now and of course, this being a romance novel, the answer is definitely a fake fiancée! I like this formula in romances and I enjoyed it here too.

Lexi just wants to take care of the dog she has come to love. Unfortunately, Carter isn’t making that easy since he now inherited the dog. He’s willing to give her “custody” again if she play along as his fake fiancée.

Jana Aston writes a very sexy and perfectly sweet Christmas novella in The Bachelor on the Shelf. I liked the chemistry between the two leads and the history Lexi had of crushing on Carter back in high school. This is a fairly straightforward romance but Jana Aston gives it some spark and zing with fun dialog, a great secondary character in the dog, and well, plenty of holiday romance to prove their engagement is “real” to the public. And the epilogue (I’m a fan of epilogues) was A+ material to this reader!

Blurb:

My name is Carter Sheppard and I actually like Christmas and my Christmas-themed hometown of Reindeer Falls. In fact, when I learn I have to return home in order to collect an inheritance—my uncle’s dog—it puts life into perspective for me.

Sure, playing professional baseball is great. But it won’t last forever and every player needs a long-term game plan.

And I just found mine. Wrapped up in the feisty, bespectacled package of the town librarian.

Unfortunately, she thinks I’m a player in all aspects of the word, but I’ve got a plan to win her over. Starting with a fake engagement…

Cover Reveal: the Player Hater by Sara Ney

Release Date: February 15


I would do anything for my best friend.

 

Well. Almost anything.

 

When she begs me to come on a weekend getaway so I can bond with her new boyfriend, I can’t say no—no matter how badly I want to. After all, who will keep an eye on the guy; he’s your stereotypical, professional football player (emphasis on PLAYER) and I don’t trust him with my friends heart.

 

Worse? He has the nerve to bring his single best friend Davis on the trip, too. Davis is too handsome, so funny and smart he can’t possibly be human. Grandma’s, babies and kittens all fall for his smile.

 

In fact, everyone adores but me **narrows eyes** What’s he hiding?

 

I refuse to fall for his act; at some point he’ll will drop the Good Guy act and show his true colors: he’s a player, too. He must be.

 

You know the saying: if he seems too good to be true, he probably is.

Blurb:

My name is Jake Sheppard and I’m ambivalent about Christmas and the Christmas-themed town I grew up in. But when I find out my late uncle left me an old barn and acres of land, the decision to return home to build my dream golf course is an easy one.

 

Imagine my surprise when I arrive and find out I have a squatter.

 

An incredibly sexy squatter, with wavy blonde hair, green eyes, a free spirit… and a herd of goats.

 

Lexi hates my guts. Apparently evicting a non-paying non-tenant and her goats weeks before Christmas is grounds for war.

 

Except Lexi’s version of war includes flinging her clothing at me and, as it turns out, I might be in way over my head with this girl…

Review: Elves with Benefits by Jana Aston

Elves with Benefits is book 4 in Jana Aston’s Reindeer Falls series but don’t worry. This book stands just great on its own! This is the story of Maggie, a “Christmas Cop” aka holiday enforcement officer (and relator) whose job it is during the holidays is to write up citations for those houses and buildings in Reindeer Falls that don’t adhere to the holiday decorating code.

Now, the idea of a Christmas Cop is a bit tough for me to swallow at the moment since I hear of so many real police killing actual people so I kind of had to push that part out of my head. This could be a make or break thing for some readers, so proceed with caution.

What I did thoroughly enjoy is seeing Maggie and the hero of the book, big city architect Ryan Sheppard fall in love. It happens swiftly (this is a fairly short story) but it has a lot of heart. Ryan is definitely a bit of a Grinch in the beginning but Maggie wins him over with her love of Reindeer Falls. And Maggie’s love of Christmas and the holiday season and all it evokes, for me, that’s how I feel so those feelings hit close to home for me. Maggie did not have a great childhood and so she really clings to her love for Reindeer Falls. She has finally found home and with Ryan, true love.

Their ending is a bit swift and sort of anti-climactic but I enjoyed the ride so I will not complain. Elves with Benefits sets the tone for a fun and festive holiday romance! (Naughtier than Hallmark, which I appreciate.)

My name is Ryan Sheppard and I don’t care about Christmas. I’m only returning to my over-the-top Christmas-themed hometown to sell the house I inherited from my late uncle so I can get back to the city and the promotion I’m chasing at work.

Unfortunately, there’s a flaw in my plan.

Because according to the town Christmas cop, there’s a moratorium on selling houses during December. She says it’s bad for the aesthetic. She’s also slapping an alarming number of tickets on my front door. For being in violation of holiday décor. And I swear on Rudolph himself, one is for ‘unsportsmanlike Christmassing.’

To top it all off, this Christmas cop looks like a red-headed elf.

A sexy red-headed elf…
