Are you needing away to get into the holiday spirit? Are you looking for all the Christmas feels? Look no further. Hot for the holidays will take you into the holidays with stories by 13 very talented authors.

All, but one, of the stories were new to me making this a wonderful early Christmas gift.

I was exited for three stories of this collection and those are the one I'm am reviewing.

First was A Ten Below Zero Christmas by Whitney Barbetti. At first I got scared because I don't know if is just me who think this way but to me once the authors types The End for me everything is just fine so I guess that's why it hit me hard at first because it got real like real life day to day struggle real but it was perfect, beautiful and it was so Parker and Everett and I loved it.

Next was Flare by Autumn Grey. It was so good, cute, fun and hot I absolutely love it. Remington as always so swoon worthy but God I can't wait for more Luc

Last but not least was Under the Mistletoe by Michelle Lynn it was so good to catch up a little more with Piper and Tanner's life and more truth or dare jajaja. I don't care which story comes first if it is Taylor and Brad or Bea and Dylan but they need to happen ASAP.

Naughty Not Nice by Mia Kayla
I loved The Scheme and Marry Me For Money.
Kendy is fully rational in her thought process and I 100% agree with her.
Nice peek in to their world. Hope we get more soon!!
Thank for this slice of life Mia!!

I love anthologies to discover new authors and I think the majority of authors in this one were new to me. Most of the stories were standalones of already released books so I did find it a little hard to connect with some...

But, I did enjoy reading them all and a lot of them I do want to discover the characters in their full length glory, so adding to my tbr :)

4.5* is my average for this anthology :)

This review is for Elisabeth Grace's When the Clock Strikes Twelve

Two things:

1. If you have read the Indiscretion series, this is a MUST READ!

2. If I was to review this short story with one GIF, it would be this:

I even went as far as to send that GIF to the author as soon as I finished, because OH MY GOD I LOVED IT SO MUCH!

I am a big fan of the Indiscretion series, so I was VERY excited to hear that we would be a getting an Indiscretion short story. Going in, all I knew is that it would be Christmas related and something was going to go wrong with Max & Chloe's holiday travel plans.

This story is just the best. Max and Chloe are still ridiculously in love and while their plans seem to go to crap, they pretty much define the phrase "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade." They even enlist fellow travelers (surprise "guests" of sort) to help them out.

This may be a short story, but I laughed, I cried, and I swooned. There were even a few moments when I needed a cold shower! But let's be honest, if Max & Chloe weren't having sexy, sexy times, they wouldn't be Max & Chloe!

Elisabeth managed to cram a lot into this story and it was amazing. Thank you for giving us a little more Max and Chloe!! Now let's talk about a short story for next holiday season.......

I had the pleasure to read FLARE by Autumn Grey, one of the 21 novellas in this set.

If you loved the HAVOC Series, be ready because you are going to love this novella!!! In Flare, you got to read more about Remington & Selene after they got married. And more Luc, yesssssss, you got Luc POV yay! *Happy dance*.

Flare was very very good!!! Hot & Funny!!!! You do not want to miss the interaction between Luc & Adrien, oh this little boy made me laugh so hard! I really enjoyed it.

If you have not read the Havoc Series by Autumn Grey, I highly recommend you to do it, it was so so good ♥.
