Summary:
Christmas Luck #1
Jonah Beecham is a down on his luck cowboy, stuck in Vegas with no money, no job, no friends, and Christmas rapidly approaching. Although he’d been promised a job as a bullfighter, the job falls through, and he’ll be sleeping in his truck for Christmas. In a fit of desperation, he drops a coin in an old-fashioned slot machine and wins enough to put gas in his truck… plus a little something extra. Rather than press his luck, he decides to leave the casino, but the universe isn’t done with him yet.
Zach Evans is a television writer from Los Angeles who loves all things cowboy. He’s in Las Vegas to do some research at an end of year rodeo event. Too wary to approach any of the sexy cowboys he sees, he finally takes a chance when he bumps into Jonah.
Spending the next week in Zach’s bed might seem like Jonah’s luck has changed, but when Jonah realizes he’s falling for a man who lives in a city where none of his skills are employable, he’s got a choice to make. Fear of the unknown will cost him Zach, but accepting that the universe has more luck in store for him might be more than he can handle.
Jonah Beecham is facing last resources to survive as Christmas nears and he finds himself in Vegas with no money, no friends, and no job since a promised one as a bullfighter falls through. Zach Evans is in town to do some research for the television show he writes for and despite his appreciation for everything cowboy he doesn't quite have the nerve to approach any. When a chance meeting buts Jonah and Zach together will a Vegas fling stay in Vegas or has luck turned the corner for both men and turn to more?
I have never been let down by KC Burn's writing and A Cowboy's Christmas Luck was no different. The title says it all: cowboys and Christmas, what's not to love? Jonah definitely is need of a little luck and after putting one of his final coins in a slot machine that he happened to sit in front of give his feet a rest he may have found some extra luck. No, I can safely say he doesn't hit the jackpot but then a bump and stumble puts him in Zach's path. Talk about a great Christmas meeting!
A Cowboy's Christmas Luck may seem cliche to some, but lets face it most Christmas stories tend to be a bit on the cliche side. HOWEVER, that doesn't make it not great. This short holiday novella will put a smile on your face and keep it there long after you hit the final page. You have cutesy-awkward-Hallmark-ish first meetings, heat, romance, cowboys, and plenty of heart. Somehow this little gem almost completely missed my reading radar so whether it was coincidence or a little Christmas luck😉 I came across Jonah and Zach's tale last weekend and immediately 1-clicked, opened it, and I was completely filled with holiday cheer and pure fun. Definitely goes on my win-win shelf.

Summary:
Christmas Luck #2
Cody Chase needs a plan, and quick. When his boyfriend was alive, the antiques brought in a comfortable income for the two of them. But Cody’s an ex-stripper with a basic business degree, not an antiques dealer. He’s no more than a couple of months from going under, but after losing his home and his boyfriend, he can’t face losing the business as well.
Some might call Adrian Phoenix’s state of mind a mid-life crisis, but he sees it more as a mid-life awakening. After years in a soul-sucking office job, he ditches it all for the call of the muse. A little Christmas magic provices a chance meeting with Cody, who agrees to a date from a random stranger. Adrian might be facing his forties, but he’s got a new career and a new social life to look forward to.
But Adrian hasn’t told his family about his new life plans, and Cody has had his fill of disapproving relatives. Even though their meeting seems like fate, and gives Cody a way to save his floundering business, Cody is afraid that Adrian will realize he can do better. If Cody gambles on a life with Adrian, he risks both his heart and his livelihood. Winning those stakes might require more luck than Cody’s had in his entire life.
