This was such a fun collection of holiday romance short stories! Many of these authors are some of my favorite romance authors, and I loved seeing their talent come to life in these short audio stories. I admire how these authors are able to build character backstories, tension, and chemistry in a matter of a few chapters. The narrators also all did an excellent job of invoking so much emotion and heat between the characters. I genuinely loved all of the narrators equally, whether they were single or dual narrators. I highly recommend picking up these shorts for a quick holiday romance(s)!

This was such a fun and cute compilation of holiday short stories. It was also a great way to read a snippet for some new to me authors!

Several different "tropes" and spice levels. Some stories were better than others, but overall it was a great way to get some holiday spirit in early. Thank you for the chance to listen to the ALC and I look forward to sharing these stories with others once it is released!

Cute holiday fun!

I loved how short and sweet each of these stories were! The narration for each story was excellent and the different tropes and storylines kept my little holiday heart happy. I will be posting these on my page and sharing!

Under The Mistletoe is absolute holiday perfection!

I cannot emphasis enough how much I enjoyed this series. I loved the narrators for each story. I thought each added to the characters and whimsy. I loved Ali Hazelwood's novella. I thought it has her classic writing style and amazing dynamic chemistry. One thing I needed was more! More of each story. I thought it would've been perfect as full length books and I devoured them. Tessa Bailey, Olivia Dade, etc each novella was fun, sweet, short and perfect to get in the holiday spirit. I loved the audiobooks and listening to them as I worked out or driving. They have so much charm and swoony goodness that is much loved. I cannot wait to listen to this again. A must listen and read!

Cruel Winter with You: CUTE. ADORABLE. comedic timing. years of yearning. she’s his older sister’s best friend, he knows he’s gonna marry her since he was six. she broke his heart but he wasn't giving up on her. I LOVE IT. 5 stars
Merry Ever After: that was flaming hot lol. single mother, giant farmer, he never found a pair of jeans in the thrift shop that fit him, she gifted him a custom made jeans that fit him even without measurements, she's not looking for relationships, but he's ready for the long haul and good with her kid. i love that this has an epilog! 4.5 stars
All by My Elf: my least favorite. two professors trapped in a blizzard traffic, secretly have a crush for each other, but she thought he's in relationship with her best friend. closed proximity forced them to talk about it through Never Have I Ever game. 3 stars
Merriment and Mayhem: she just visited to make arrangements for her late grandma's house, but in the high of christmas spirit she got caught in several emergencies. he's a firefighter who's always on call. she's not looking for casual hookups since she's going out of town soon, but the circumstance has another plan for her. damsel in distress but make it fun and flirty. it was okay. 3.5 stars
Only Santas in the Building: actually this ties with the 3rd story on the lowest rank for this collection. it was okay but i didn't care enough about it.

all the narrators are exceptional. i have no notes. they did a good job with the audiobook!
