Fake dating enemies to lovers holiday perfection with a good dose of emotional depth! This was my first book by indie author, Kate Callaghan and definitely won't be my last! I'm excited to read whatever she writes next. Many thanks to NetGalley and the author for an early digital copy in exchange for my honest review!

The Naughty or Nice Clause was a fun holiday surprise. Callaghan's writing is so straightforward that you feel like you are right there at the Christmas party gone horribly wrong. I loved every minute of the work dynamics, magic to a holiday wonderland and the chemistry between our two main characters. Fun and quick holiday read!

Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC.

At first I didn't understand anything, it was a bit confusing for me because they went from one place to another in a very strange way. As it progressed and everything was explained, I understood the plot better and I was able to enjoy it much more than in the first episodes.

I don't think it's a bad book, not at all, in fact I quite like the feeling of union between the people in Yule and the whole story of what is done in the factory with the dust system, but there is a lack of chemistry between the characters for me. There's a large part that is fake dating and it's a trope that I love, but when they progress romantically speaking, I don't really connected with them. Also, the end seemed very fast for the potential it has.

I loved the grumpy/sunshine aspect of this book. The characters were well written and it is clear that a lot of thought had been put into their development. I really enjoyed the storyline and found myself laughing throughout it this book. A brilliant festive read, will definitely recommend.

A fun holiday romp! I’m all about o but of Christmas magic as well as a well done enemies to lovers trope! Will definitely be reading more Kate Callahan in the future!

Cute and cozy romantic Christmas story. I recommend this one for anyone who enjoy light holiday romances.

Such a fun holiday read!! The characters were well written, the plot was great, and was very easy to read!

I did not finish this one, it was not for me, I couldn't relate to the characters, and just did not care for the story.

If you're looking for a short, fun, cheesy Christmas Rom-Com with decent characters, this book is for you! Although some of the character's interactions felt forced, it's a quick enough read that is fun enough to make up for it's minor flaws.

Thank you to Netgalley & Publishers for access to an arc copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

this was soooo fun, so festive and gave all of the Hallmark movie vibes. So cute and I will be rereading for the holiday season.

I did not finish this title in advance of the publication day, but do intend to finish reading later down the line.

This charming romance is an absolute delight to read. Filled with endearing characters and heartwarming moments, it's a feel-good journey that leaves you with a smile. The author's knack for creating chemistry between the protagonists is enchanting, making their blossoming relationship utterly captivating. Set against a backdrop of cozy settings and witty dialogue, this book is a sweet escape into a world of love and happiness

A bit silly but a lovely Christmas read. It really got me in the Christmas spirit! Light hearted and fun. Recommended by me!

This is one of those books where over all I enjoyed the book, but there was probably more that I didn't like than like. Overall it was ok but nothing to write home about.

What I did like, and the reason I decided to read the book, was the really good refreshing concept.
Lyla partly owns her family’s toy company with the scrooge Mason Klaus. The company is slowly going under, and Mason seems to be making everything worse. Mason invites Lyla to go home with him for the holidays to the North Pole and imagine her surprise when she realises he is none other than the next inline to the sleigh, and destined to be the next Mr Klaus.

This book could have been so much fun and a really good festive read, but unfortunately there was just no chemistry at all with the characters, no was Masons character particularly likeable to be honest.

Thank you to Netgalley for a ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I loved this book. The concept was interesting. My kind of fantasy. I read this book awhile ago. But I keep thinking about it. I really like the author’s writing style. I will be looking for more of her books.

LOVE LOVE LOVE! This is the perfect Christmas read. It made you feel so many feelings. I cant wait to read this every season!

This was so much more fun than I thought it would be! I really enjoyed the Santa lore and didn't mind the kidnapping haha. It was funny and sweet but also hot. Didn't know hot St Nick was my vibe, learn new things all the time. Recommend!

When the annual Christmas party ends in disaster, Lyla owes her nemesis and co-ceo Mason Klaus a favor. She certainly doesn't expect that favor to be that he magically whisks her away to a Christmas lover's dream village where it turns out Klaus is more than a last name. This was such a fun, whimsical holiday romance.

This book was not what I was expecting but I absolutely loved it. Extra Christmas magic for a cosy Christmas read. I loved that the characters initially despised each other. I loved the magic and the setting of the plot. The characters were engaging and I read this book in one sitting. Thanks netgalley

Who said Christmas can’t be in July?! Okay, I’m late to the party butttt better late then never and let me tell you, I don’t regret this party at all! This book was so cozy and fun and my fave trope: enemies to lovers!! This is perfect for Christmas and I kinda wished i had read it on Christmas
