Summary:It’s the most horrible time of the year.
Smooches under mistletoes and tacky reindeer decorations.
Newly single, Davey has had enough of wasting his love and having his heart broken. Better to be single, he decides. No more dates. No more falling in love. No more dreaming of happy ever afters.
Those are for movies.
He’s resolute.
And then Avery steps into his life, bringing care, compassion, and tenderness in his path.
Davey’s so tempted to hope again. But can an online date and a brief encounter turn into anything other than an ephemeral sexual encounter?
Is there a future for them? Will Avery stay? And most importantly, can Davey bear to offer up his heart to the season’s love—just one more time?
A sweet romance by Chris Ethan, author of The Guy With The Suitcase.
Just as Davey has decided that love is not worth the heartache, Avery enters his life. Will an online connection lead to more than just sex or was Davey right about love and heartache? Will the holiday season bring him a happy heart or is he destined to watch others find happiness?
Jingle Spell is a wonderful and amazing holiday romance that is full of hope and passion. There is never a shortage of happy romances this time of year so what makes Jingle stand out? Well, for me its the genuineness of Davey's heartache, the feeling that he is not only the guy next door but he could be you. We've all felt the loneliness at some point or other so it gives hope to those who have given up on love all while entertaining us with a wonderful story.
Novellas can be tricky little buggers. Short stories are expected to be short and to the point, novels are in depth and have plenty of time to put the characters through the wringer but novellas are in between and have to find the right balance of quick yet detailed. The truth is what makes Jingle Spell worth reading is its well written, with lovely characters, and its fun with just the right amount of drama and perfectly paced from beginning to end. I can't wait to see what the future holds for this author.
RATING:
Chris Ethan is a book whore. He enjoys selling his feelings for money and other pleasures and is blatantly unashamed to do so for as long as he breathes. Chris Ethan is also a persona for Rhys Ethan, author of fantasy and sci-fi. He uses Chris Ethan to share stories of adult queer romance with those who need it. Before you delve into his books however, be warned. He likes putting his characters through shitstorms and hates anything conventional. But then there's that darned happy-ever-after. Also, he likes swearing. Deal with it!
