Snow Kissed is three short stories, all with a Christmas or snow theme. They were all well written and lots of fun.Reindeer GamesJessica Clare (Jill Myles) is one of my favorite authors. I've read everything she's written, and have yet to be disappointed. Reindeer Games is a short story to compliment her Games series. Everyone has that one series that you go to when you need a smile or just a good laugh. The Games books are mine.They are based loosely on reality T. V. shows. In the first book, Wicked Games, we are introduced to Endurance Island, think Survivor. This story takes us back to Endurance Island, with a twist. This is Endurance Island Alaska. And it's a Christmas theme.Luna and Owen, have issues from the moment they step foot into their canoe to start the game. Luna is mouthy and a bit of an Alpha female. Owen is totally an Alpha male, and extremely competitive. To say she doesn't take kindly to Owen's pushy attitude is putting it lightly. They hate each other. And lucky for them, they are the first two voted out. That means they get to spend lots of quality time together at the Loser Lodge. And after an epic food fight, the producers punish them by changing up the rules of the game. After all its the Christmas show, lets add some excitement. That means that Owen and Luna, are excluded from any further activity, where the game is concerned. So now it's just the two of them, alone, in snowy Alaska, until the conclusion of the game.UndressedMy introduction to Jen Frederick was the book Last Hit. The first book in a new series by Jen Frederick and Jessica Clare and really loved it.This short story is about Noah and Grace. Two people from way different sides of the track. Grace grew up with a very lavish lifestyle, lots of money, the best schools and the ability to have anything she wanted. Noah grew up in the total opposite. His mother had died when he was young, and his father lives on food stamps and spends most of his time drunk. He struggled for everything.When he was old enough he enlisted in the Marine Corps. That's where he met Grace, when she became his pen pal. Knowing he needed to find a way to make some money, he took up MMA fighting, bought a frozen yogurt franchise and is completing his education. All in the hopes of being good enough for Grace. But when a shady professor, proposes a deal that's almost too good to resist, Noah is tempted to take him up on his offer. And even more ready to accept the plan, of throwing one of his fights, when his scholarship is threatened. But does he really need all that money to win Grace over? Or does he just need to love her. That's the question he needs to find the answer to.The Sound of SnowDS Linney is a new author for me. But I'm going to be looking for more books, I loved this story.This story almost had a modern, updated Sound of Music vibe going. A young ex-nun, hired by a widow to care for his children.Billionaire, Gabriel is finally accepting the loss of his wife, and moving on with his life. He's newly engaged. Just hired a new nanny to care for his four children and his business is thriving. Little does he know, that the new nanny is the same woman he spent an incredible night with six months earlier. And has spent months trying to find.Maria has taken the job as the new nanny to finally start paying off some of her student loans. She has yet to meet with the man who has hired her, only dealing with his assistant so far.Now she needs to help put this family back together. It's obvious that Gabriel loves his children. But he doesn't seem to know how to show them. So it's up to Maria, to put him back together with his kids. And to keep her hands off of her new boss. And her thoughts about him strictly professional. If she can.These were really fun, quick reads. With a couple of excerpts for upcoming books thrown in. I had a lot of fun reading them.
