 The pandemic knocked Carina flat. Now that she is home from a months-long hospital stay, she hopes to have a big family Christmas. But no one seems to care. Her husband is working out of town and her grown children are scattered all around the country. The only one who seems to understand is a young man in her grief group. He offers her his family cabin in the mountains of Colorado. There, she is guaranteed to have a white Christmas, something she hasn’t had in a long time. She writes about it in her journal, trying to convince herself she can do it alone. But it still doesn’t seem possible. She isn’t adventurous, she’s always been everyone else’s caregiver. Could she really do something so extravagant just for herself? Could she really write herself a Christmas?

Ann has been a writer since junior high school, but to pay the bills she’s waited tables, delivered newspapers, cleaned other people’s houses, taught school, and even had a short stint as a secretary in a rock-n-roll radio station. She also worked as a 911 operator and a police dispatcher. 

Ann’s stories began to win awards in her college days. Since then she’s published novels, novellas, and short stories. But even if no one ever bought another book, Ann wouldn’t stop writing. For her it’s the cathartic pause in a sometimes-crazy world. Most of the time, it even keeps her sane.

A Sweet Christmas: A Sweet Confections Novella by Nicole Richard – Review by Bobbi Wagner

A Sweet ChristmasA Sweet Christmas by Nicole Richard
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this shorter holiday romance story. This is an author I have enjoyed from the first book I have read of hers. This one is no different. This is a well written story that is written with a lot of holiday spirit and heart. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by the author’s use of details. The characters are not only relatable but brought the story to life on each page. This is a faster paced story that I found to be engaging and just a great story. A holiday story about Thea and Ben’s story. Neither one of them is looking for love. One does not have the best of luck with men and the other feels he has nothing to prove or gain by women. How can one sweet encounter change both of them? What will the holiday fate have in store for them? I really enjoyed their chemistry and their growth throughout the story. This is worth the pick up. I highly recommend this book.

Irresistible Christmas – Pets to the Rescue (Irresistible Romance Book 6) ANTHOLOGY – Review by Robin Rankin

IRRESISTIBLE AT CHRISTMAS (Irresistible Romance Book 2)IRRESISTIBLE AT CHRISTMAS by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

IRRESISTIBLE CHRISTMAS – PETS TO THE RESCUE ANTHOLOGY

I have no idea what we as humans did to deserve the love we get from our pets but I’m so happy to have the live of my two dogs as well as all of the other pets in my life.  There is just something about a story with a pet involved that makes me love it just a little more.

The story I’m going to highlight is Two Hearts Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson which is the seventeenth book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance.

Kinley is new to Crystal Rock, she’s been hired to run the animal shelter, specifically the Wounded Warrior program which will pair up animals and Veterans.

Jake is back in Crystal Rock on an assignment and while there is helping out at the shelter.   He has no idea that someone from his past will come back into his life.

I really enjoyed the story but the animals were the stars as far as I’m concerned.   Buster and McTavish had amazing and large personalities they both stole my heart.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I didn’t get to read all the books in the Irresistible Christmas: Pets to the Rescue box set, I only got the chance to read Two Hearts’ Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson. It was overall a very good read. It was entertaining, and funny, sweet and romantic. I loved the characters and especially the pets. The pets and animals had so much personality I want them as pets of my own! However I feel like more detail could have been added. Everything moved very fast, and it seemed like things happened when there was no clear timeline for them to have happened. But besides that it was a great read for me! Ferguson never disappoints.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great stories but my favorite is Pets to the Rescue. I have to admit I’m a HUGE fan of Tamara Ferguson so I’m always looking for books or anthologies with that have her work features in them. This book was another 5 star read for me. I’ve been a big fan since I started reading the two hearts wounded warrior series. I feel like all the books by this author tie into each other and I love it.
Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year and these characters are about to see why. Jake and Kinley were both at The Crystal Rock Tap one night. They couldn’t get each other out of their minds. Jake had a huge crush on her many years ago but now that they have both grown up what will happen? They are going to be seeing a lot of each other since Jake is there to help out with the animals. Will these two finally get the happy ending they deserve?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Irresistible Christmas – Pets to the Rescue by Tamara Ferguson is a collection of Christmas stories from a variety of different authors. Each of these stories brings a bit of holiday cheer as well as a well written novel to sink into.
This collection of authors have worked together a few times and I like how they always manage to differentiate their stories from each other while still completely nailing the theme. Every book is different and distinguishable from the others. I like them all for such different reasons.
If you are looking for some Christmas magic then this anthology is definitely the one to go for. I am already looking forward to what else is next from these authors.

TWO HEARTS CHRISTMAS RESCUE by Tamara Ferguson
I love this author so much so I grab her stories be it long or short! As always I love any addition to this series from her. The characters are always connectable and real. I loved Kinley and Jake! I could really feel the emotions that they were feeling surrounding this time of year. I was really rooting for them, both lovely and genuine characters!

The other stories were also brilliant reads! All 5 stars in my opinion!

I read only the first story in this anthology and will be reading the rest soon, but this is for Tamara Ferguson’s book, Two Hearts’ Christmas Rescue

This was a great story about falling in love, romantically and with Christmas again. I loved all the animals in this one. And being able to see those from previous books. You don’t have to read the previous books to read this one but it helps just a little to know who is who.
Cant wait for more in this series as they’re so good!

IRRESISTIBLE CHRISTMAS - PETS TO THE RESCUE (Irresistible Romance #6)IRRESISTIBLE CHRISTMAS – PETS TO THE RESCUE by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Irresistible Anthology: Pets To The Rescue is a collection of 7 contemporary romance stories set around Christmastime where adorable pets play a significant role in the stories. The 7 stories are:
Two Hearts Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson
Mistletoe Magic by Natalie Ann
Bayou Christmas by Suzanne Jenkins
Candy’s Christmas Wish by Cynthis Cooke
Melt My Heart by Alicia Street
Playing Santa by Stephanie Queen
A Snowy Seaside Christmas by Traci Hall.

I am not going to review all 7 stories but have chosen to highlight my favourite which is Two Hearts Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson. Over the last couple of years I have become a huge fan of Tamara Ferguson, loving her books set in Crystal Rock, Wisconsin so I was excited to get a chance to read another book from the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior series.

This book gives us the story of Kinley and Jake. Kinley is the vet in charge of the animal shelter and Jake has been sent to help out there while he works on a hush hush dangerous assignment for the AFOSI. The attraction between Jake and Kinley is instant but as he’s only due to be there for a couple of weeks both try their best to keep each other at arms length and Jake doesn’t want to get Kinley embroiled in the assignment he was working on.

I really enjoyed this book. As with the other books in the Two Heart Wounded Warrior series there is a dangerous and intriguing story line along with the romance which helps keep the reader fully engaged and wanting to know how the story is going to pan out.
Definitely worth the read.

To find out what happens between these two this is a must read.. Another one of my favorites is Mistletoe Magic by Natalie Anne. All of these stories were so good I had a hard time putting it down. There is romance, danger, second chances, furry friends and more. There are some of my favorite authors and some new ones that I will definitely be looking for in the future. I highly recommend this anthology and you will not regret it.

Irresistible Christmas – Pets to the rescue by Tamara Ferguson a woofable four-star read. This has some great stories in it, as do all of the collections that Tamara Ferguson puts together, I really like the way they bring the military to the story and always mange to bring great characters together making you care about them in such few pages. Kinley and Jake will suck you in and when you add puppies as well, well then you just have a winner. Melt my Heart was another one that actually melted my heart. There are many stories that will capture your heart and many that will melt it also.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really loved this collection of books. They are all uniquely different but they all contain romance and animals and the spirit of Christmas.

One of my favourites is Two Hearts Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson. I love the way the author writes and how you get completely immersed in the story.

Kinley is the Veterinarian at Crystal Rock Animal Shelter. She works there and is also looking to set up a training place for wounded war veterans. She loves her job. Christmas for her has always been a hard time full of grief and sadness but this year she plans for it to be different.

Jake Ryder is an agent sent to Crystal Rock to hunt down a criminal. To help him blend in he gets a job at the animal shelter.
The connection between Jake and Kinley is instant with both feeling the pull.
Can they let go of the pain of the past and open themselves up to love. Will the magic of christmas help them create the romance?

If you are looking for feel-good stories about Christmas, relationships, and pets, look no further because this is the anthology for you. I especially liked Two Hearts Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson. This book is about Kinley and Jake. They are in need of some help. There are some pets that need some help too. Kinley and Jake have not been able to celebrate Christmas for a couple of years due to some losses that they have suffered, Jake had a crush on Kinley in high school. He is back from his time in Afghanistan. Will Kinley take a chance with Jake? Can a group of animals bring them together? Will Christmas magic come alive and bring Jake and Kinley together? I highly recommend this book and all the books in this anthology.

And I gotta say I’m a sucker for any storyline that includes animals! Each story was great one of my favorites was Two Hearts Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this anthology of Christmas romances set in the season of miracles and full of the spirit of Christmas. Each heartwarming, romantic, steamy story had me hooked and this was the perfect collection of contemporary romances to read over the festive period. As a fan of Tamara Ferguson I was looking forward to her story, ‘TWO HEARTS’ CHRISTMAS RESCUE’ and I was not disappointed. For Kinley and Jake Christmas has been a time of loss for them both and so neither has celebrated for years. Then a gang of needy rescue pets help Kinley and Jake to rescue each other’s Christmas and maybe even fall in love. In ‘MISTLETOE MAGIC’ by Natalie Ann, Robin and Brian need the magic of Christmas to help them discover what is hiding in their hearts. Suzanne Jenkins ‘BAYOU CHRISTMAS’ introduces us to Maggie who’s discovery under Bayou Cottage could change her life. A mother dog and her litter bring Maggie and the local handsome veterinarian together. In ‘CANDY’S CHRISTMAS WISH’ by Cynthia Cooke, Candy is about to loose her house, her business and her dog and could really do with a Christmas miracle but can the guy who broke her heart, Lincoln, provide one. In Alicia Street’s story ‘MELT MY HEART’ a mysterious letter and a rescue mutt bring two people who have given up on love, Wynter and Caleb together. In ‘PLAYING SANTA’, by Stephanie Queen, football player Sean Patrick not only rescues a puppy whilst dressed as Santa but also rescues a struggling beauty and her son. The last story by Traci Hall ‘A SNOWY SEASIDE CHRISTMAS’ brings a doctor and his patient, who has been shot whilst on duty, together but both Gemma and Bryce need to forget their pasts and take a chance on love. This was an enjoyable and engaging anthology which I was totally immersed in and could not put down. Each story had a real feel good factor and the whole collection put me in a festive mood, ready for Christmas.

This is my second book by this author and I love it even more than the first. The setting is beautiful, you can feel like you are there. The author does a great job of describing without over subscribing. I love the main character Joanie and all the secondary characters, especially Sarah. I enjoyed how the author intertwined the characters, the town, and the yearly Christmas traditions. You could feel the coziness of the town, how everyone was connected and friendly. Throw in a couple of hijinks, a little mystery, some laughter, and some good recipes and you have yourself a sweet cozy mystery. My only question was what happened to Meredith from the previous book? I can’t wait to dive in to the rest of the books by this author. Her writing style is sweet and light which is perfect!

Irresistible Christmas – Pets to the Rescue is an anthology, seven stories written by seven different authors. So far I’ve read the Two Hearts Christmas’s Rescue by Tamara Ferguson. This is a story about Kinley and Jake. The last time Jake saw Kinley was back in high school when he had a huge crush on her. Now after years of service in Afghanistan, Jake is working under cover helping at the animal shelter with Kinley to train service dogs for wounded vets.
This is a lovely story that occurs near Christmas – I enjoyed reading it this Christmas season. I hope other readers enjoy it too!

I loved this collection of Christmas stories. This is a great anthology that has seven stories from seven great authors. Each story brings something different and shows the spirit of Christmas. I found some of my favorite authors and I think you will too. One of my favorite stories is Two Hearts Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson. It is about Kinley and Jake. Their Christmas is in need of rescuing. A few pets are in need of rescuing, will they turn Kinley and Jake’s Christmas around? The magic of love is pretty powerful, will it be for them? The other story that I really loved was Candy’s Christmas Wish by Cynthia Cooke. This is a story about second chances. Candy is on the verge of losing her house, business and her dog. What she needs is a miracle. As Lincoln comes back into her life, will he be the miracle she needs? Will Christmas be a time for healing? I loved the characters in each of these stories and the Christmas magic they each bring. A great Christmas book and I highly recommend this anthology.

Sweets and Santa (The Matchmaking Baker Book 2) by Rosie Pease is just a cute little novel that gives your brain a breath of fresh air after you’ve been reading all them psycho mysteries. A sweet (literally) little Christmas mystery. Although our heroine doesn’t actually solve the mystery it’s more an accidental revealing. I love the running commentary about the cookies in the bakery and I love all the characters in this novel and I especially love the recipe at the end, a unique little addition. This book gives you more than just a good story I’m looking forward to more of these little books.

Holiday Terminal (Warren Family Holidays #1)Holiday Terminal by Gwyn McNamee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Such a sweet and feel good Christmas book! Holiday Terminal (A Second Chance Secret Baby Billionaire Holiday Romance) is the first book in the Warren Family Holidays Series by Gwyn McNamee and Christy Anderson. Penelope is a hard working single mom who is just trying to get home to her family for Christmas. One problem is there is a wicked storm, which halters her travel plans to get to get there. So, they get stranded in an extremely small town in Tennessee. She isn’t the only one who gets stranded there either. Artemis Warren has an infamous family and has the money to go with it. The one thing that he doesn’t have is the girl that broke his heart one summer in North Carolina. He’s carried a torch for her ever since. As fate plays it, these two get stranded at the same time at the very same airport their planes had to land at due to the storm. In less than 24 hours their lives get turned upside down and they leave to a happy ending. This book is a little bit of an emotional roller coaster. It was such an easy read and it pulled you in from the start and didn’t stop until the very end. I am so glad that there is a second book! I can’t wait to read it! This book is a Hallmark movie waiting to happen! I absolutely adored it! I have no complaints at all! Well done ladies!
