Jingle Bell Rock by Lily Kate

Fresh out of high school, I—Tara Kendrick—was madly in love with Gavin Donovan. Until one day he disappeared in a web of secrets, and I never heard from him again. Fast forward thirteen years: I’m stranded at a rundown bed & breakfast during a snowstorm, and guess who’s the new owner?

Merry Christmas to me.

While I’m locked up with my ex-flame and the current thorn-in-my-side, I’m reminded of the laundry list of items that are hard on Gavin Donovan—his biceps, his abs, his thighs…and now the massive diamond rock he slips onto my finger when I agree to be his fake fiancée for reasons I’m not comfortable repeating aloud. But I have as much incentive to make this arrangement work as he does, so falling into bed with the enemy is not on my to-do list.
As the jingle bells start to chime, however, the huge rock on my finger isn’t the hardest thing between us. It’s hard to keep my hands off Gavin. It’s hard to pretend this relationship isn’t real. It’s hard to remember how I ever fell out of love with him in the first place.

You can read between the lines when I say Merry Christmas and Jingle Bell… well, rock.

A holiday romantic comedy with spicy scenes, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA.
