A wonderful holiday anthology that you’ll absolutely adore. These authors seamlessly blend the spirit of Christmas and finding the one love you always desired.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Another great book from one of my favorite authors. Highly recommend to friends and family.
Three tales of Christmas with cowboys from three well known romance authors. Advance reader copy from NetGalley
Honestly read once I saw Diana Palmer as author in the anthology. But once I read her story I went on and found all stories very heartfelt and easy reading. Recommend.
I reviewed two out of the three stories featured in this holiday anthology for my podcast, Boobies & Noobies (though I did read all three). I'd say this is one of the better holiday anthologies I've read in the past few years! It's hard to say which of the three stories was my favorite, but I was not disappointed by any of them. Too often, I find that I pick and choose the stories to read in an anthology, but I would happily read all three of these stories again.
⭐⭐⭐⭐
*You can listen to my reviews of Marina Adair's "Blame it on the Mistletoe" and Kate Pearce's "Mistletoe Detour" in two Boobies & Noobies episodes from December 2020.
This is three cowboy Christmas romance novella. I loved two out of three of these Novellas. I love Diana Palmer's and Marina Adair's Novellas, but I really did not like Kate Pearce's Novella. Remember that with novellas the romance moves fast and sometimes leave things up in the air. I was kindly provided an e-copy of this book by the publisher (Zebra) or author (Diana Palmer, Marina Adair, and Kate Pearce) via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review about how I feel about this book, and I want to send a big Thank you to them for that.
This is a collection of three stories about sensitive alpha cowboys and the women they grow to love. Each story is written by a different author. I really enjoyed the first two stories but didn't love the third. It wasn't bad but the sex was more descriptive and I felt it detracted from the story.
I was given an arc copy of this book and I willingly offer my honest review.
I loved the characters and the storyline development of this book. It was absolutely one of my favorites so far and I can't wait to delve in to the next one that this author writes. The storyline was simple, enjoyable, and entertaining.

These three modern day cowboys will have a life changing Christmas holiday when life throws them into the lives of three strong independent woman. These three women, a military widow, young whose trying to make life better for her brother and a woman who’s still recovering from an abusive relationship will find Christmas Kisses with My Cowboy will be life altering.
A great read for a favorite or new authors favorites. Diana Palmer, Marina Adair, and Kate Pearce have written three novellas featuring three cowboys and the women they will try to win during the Christmas holiday. A horse wrangler and a widow will have to overcome their pasts to find each other. A Texas Ranger’s charm is tested by a sexy elf. A mechanic who’s stuck in a boring safe life until his old high school returns home. These couples find each other during the Christmas holiday. Christmas Kisses with My Cowboy a great holiday read.
It Grabbed My attention and focus so strong I could not put it down. A word of advice when you get your copy. Grab a snack, a comfy seat, kick back and relax. You will not be moving until you finish this bad boy here. Remarkable job. Thanks for sharing.
A well written set of three Christmas stories that held my interest until the end. The stories are MISTLETOE COWBOY * Diana Palmer, BLAME IT ON THE MISTLETOE * Marina Adair, and MISTLETOE DETOUR * Kate Pearce. A set that is well worth reading and I will be reading it again. I received a copy of this book via Net Galley and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This is a trio of Christmas love stories by Diana Palmer, Mariana Adair and Kate Pearce. They are the perfect length for the busy holiday season. All three are down to earth believable couples who find each other in winter wonderlands. I picked up the book because of Diana Palmer's name on the cover but I enjoyed the other two stories just as much as her contribution. I received a copy of this ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review,
A great set of books by three wonderfully talented authors. Each book featured a Christmas theme and was beautifully written with well-developed characters and story-lines. What better way to get introduced to each of these authors than with novellas that showcase their ability to draw their readers into heart-warming and sweetly sensual romances!

Christmas Kisses With My Cowboy by Diana Palmer is the misleading title of this book, which is actually three books: Mistletoe Cowboy by Diana Palmer; Blame It On the Mistletoe by Marina Adair; and Mistletoe Detour by Kate Pearce. The first two are definitely cowboy romances; the third is about a mechanic but he lives in a cowboy town and all his friends are cowboys, so... These are three very cute stories with happily-ever-afters. The first is about a lonely man who meets a little girl who needs some horse lessons. Then he meets her mom who needs some lessons of another sort. Parker is half Crow and learned early that bad language keeps women away so he uses that to isolate himself. Enough said. In Adair's story, Noah Tucker is a Texas Ranger. Doesn't get more cowboy than that. The first night he's home he sees an elf decorating the tree outside of the sheriff's office. He's intrigued. The there's more. Pierce's Mistletoe Detour is a second chance romance. Ted is called out with his tow truck to help someone in trouble. Turns out it's a girl he knew in high school: Veronica Hernandez. Her uncle is on the same cruise Te's dad is on so she has nowhere to stay. The town is full up with guests to a wedding that weekend, so Ted takes Veronica and her pet pig, Bacon home with him. You can guess where that leads.
This was fun. It was not serious or even realistic. It was just plain light and fun. Perfect for Christmas. I totally recommend it if you are looking for romance, hot guys, happy stories, and not much trouble. You will like it.

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.
What a great collection of holiday romances! A new author to me and the other two are favorites of mine so that was a great option for me.
Each story has a cowboy and lots of romance. One is kind of funny with the young lady holding a big secret thinking she might have killed someone. The other was a bit more intense and filled with lots of drama and intrigue, and the last was just a great romance.
I believe that each is part of a series for each author and now I am wanted to find out more about each of these people and their family!
Great way to get into the holiday spirit!
Very cute cowboy romance. I enjoyed the banter and chemistry between the characters and would probably say that was my favorite thing about this read. The mother daughter relationship was nice to read and believable. Overall enjoyable but probably will not stick with me.
Christmas list: decorate the tree ✔ Bake Christmas cookies ✔ Read Christmas books by amazing authors ✔✔✔ Great Novellas that I may just read every or every other Christmas!
What a delight, three books in a bind up.
All were really lovely reads.
I don't want to say much about each book, as I don't want to give away plots. However, each story brings you lovely characters, fun plots and makes the festive spirit shine through.
Would recommend.
A great combination of two of my loves ~ Christmas and cowboys! A beautiful festive Christmas romance x
In this book, you get three different stories with the theme being Christmas. In the first one, a widowed mom with her daughter has left the East Coast after her husband was killed while being deployed. Now taking over his family's ranch she is looking for a new start and hoping that she and her daughter can get closer as well. Does not start off good when the daughter goes missing chasing a horse and is found at a neighbor’s ranch. There she meets horse whisper, Parker. He is more than a horse whisper he is also former military and of mixed race. But Katy finds herself having feelings for him which she was not expecting. After the banker from back, East makes a play for her She now must make her feelings known to Parker or walk away, a good story.
In the second book, A Texas Ranger comes into town to visit his family and deal with old feelings about his family’s ranch and about his father. When he meets a woman and her brother whom she is raising. They seem to be doing well together until items go missing along with money from a charity function. Seeing an empty box outside of the house he comes with the sheriff instead of talking to her first. Thinking that because they are poor, they should not have an x-box and such, he must have stolen it. When the truth comes out that one of the rich kids did the deed, he now must crow if she will let him. Another good story.
Last you have a man living alone mostly working at the garage, going out on a call. What he finds is a woman who he had a crush on during high school Victoria. Glad to see her and to see she is more attractive now, what he was surprised to also see was a pig she had as a pet. Having nowhere to stay because her uncle is in Hawaii, he takes her in, and slowly they find they have a lot in common. The one problem is that she needs to get it through his thick skull he is worth being with someone. See what happens. All good stories.
