One-night miracle…

For the Crown Prince!

In this The Cattaneos’ Christmas Miracles story, rebel royal Max believes his infertility has cost him the throne — until heiress Noemi reveals she’s carrying his baby! And with his country’s future at stake, Max must claim his heir! Noemi is hesitant and fiercely protective of their unborn baby, but at his snow-covered palace can Max offer her the most precious Christmas gift ever — the chance to become a family…

 

Love, marriage and a baby carriage when they least expect it! The latest from Jennifer Faye is a downright delightful read! The characters grabbed my attention quickly and the fast paced, action packed story was addictive. I loved the connection between the characters and the strife involved in getting them to that happily ever after was enthralling. Great read!

Maximilian Steiner-Wolf, crown prince of Ostania believes that a childhood illness has left him unable to produce an heir, which means his brother will advance to the throne, but when he finds out there’s a chance he might be mistaken, he jumps at the chance to find out what his future will hold!

Noemi Cattaneo shared one night of magical passion with Max without knowing who he really was, and when she later finds out she’s pregnant, she knows she has to track him down to let him know. She’s shocked to learn he’s royalty, and is none too happy when he doubts her child is his … but she knows her child deserves to know it’s father, so she’s going to be patient with him while he gets his head wrapped around the facts!

Her rancher boss is looking for the perfect wife…

and she wants the job!

Poppy Sinclair kept her feelings for Isaiah Grayson secret for a decade. When her infuriatingly gorgeous Stetson-wearing boss enlists her help in finding him a convenient wife, she threatens to quit. Until Isaiah counters with an interesting proposal: Why doesn’t she marry him? Can she say yes to sharing his life and his bed, but not his heart?

 

Great connection! She’s feisty, he’s grumpy and set in his ways, but together they somehow work really well! We didn’t get quite as deep into this Copper Ridge story as we usually do when they are a longer book, but I really enjoyed the characters. I hope to see more of them in future books.

Poppy Sinclair has been secretly in love with her surly boss for the decade she’s worked for him, but a riddled past has kept her from making it obvious. She can’t hold her temper now though when he’s demanding she interview women to make him the perfect cookie cutter wife!

Isaiah Grayson isn’t sure why Poppy is so mad at him, but if she’s going to threaten to walk out on him, he’s got to figure out a way to make her happy enough to stay. She doesn’t like interviewing wife candidates? Then maybe she should step up and offer to be one herself!

The bridesmaid, the best man…

A Christmas wedding they’ll never forget!

A year after being jilted, Ava Keller finds herself forced back up the aisle — as bridesmaid at a beautiful Cape Town wedding. Best man — and Ava’s first crush — Noah Giles is the perfect distraction from her painful memories. But their flirtation turns serious when Ava’s feelings for him resurface! Hurt when Noah left after their kiss years before, will Ava give their chemistry a second chance?

 

A delightful read! Full of emotion, this fast paced story is a great read about reconnection, family drama and self development. Each character has a past that has scarred them, yet they each care too much about each other not to want to reach out and grab on to what they’re feeling. One of my favorites by this author for sure!

Ava Keller can’t say that she’s excited for her brother’s upcoming wedding. She adores him and his fiancee, but this wedding is a year almost to the day that she was jilted at the altar herself, so it’s bringing up a lot of unresolved feelings. She’s not sure how she’s going to make it through it all, especially having to walk down that aisle to stand up with them.

Noah Giles comes back into Ava’s life by happenstance, but it’s at just the right time for him to be a buffer between her and the drudgery of all that this wedding entails in her mind. Can they pick up with the attraction they worked so hard to push aside all of those years ago or will he just be a friend in the right place at the right time?
