5-Stars

Irresistible At Christmas was an excellent collection of romantic Christmas stories and I could not put it down. I loved how well the authors did with the development and characters of each story. Hunky men and steamy scenes make this a great collection to read by the fire with a cup of coffee. I found myself lost in these stories. Each one was easy to read. I also loved how organized it was. I highly recommend this collection.

Irresistible at Christmas (Irresistible Romance book #2) is a beautiful anthology filled with stories by some of my favourite writers! I love anthologies as they give me an opportunity to discover new writers while delving deeper into the worlds by the writers I already love and admire.
My number one in this anthology is Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift by Tamara Ferguson! I have read every single story she has written and whenever I see that she has released something new, I jump on them and I absolutely loved her new addition to her wounded warrior series. It was a pure pleasure to be back in Crystal Rock and Dragon Pointe for a magical Christmas and if you have not read any of Tamara’s books before then this is a beautiful introduction into her world!
Another one of my favourite writers is Stephanie Queen and it was a great fun to read about Scarlet who decided to become the next Miss Christmas while falling in love with a stranger who for some reason is stubborn and thinks that Scarlet is not the one for him even though deep down he knows better!
Natalie Ann is another writer who I found in another collection and I loved her short story Gifts of Love. If you like stories about self-made millionaires and money not making one happy … add to it a woman who has been hurt too many times before and you have a story that will bring you into Natalie’s world.
I had also read Alicia Street’s books before so I knew that there might be something good in store for me and she did not disappoint! She gave us a well written piece of from enemies to lovers! Add to it a small town and you can close your eyes and just picture it!
If you feel that you want to celebrate the season with some season appropriate reading then this collection hits the spot!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Irresistible at Christmas is an anthology of Christmas stories that are all perfect season heart warmers. I really enjoyed the fact that for once I knew the majority of the authors in this anthology so, although it meant I was introduced to less new ones I knew that I was going to enjoy it all before I started.
Each of these books had completely different things about them that I loved. And yet each of them had an appeal that made you want to read them. The authors all managed to get their own personalities across and yet the books all went very well together.
I don’t think I could honestly pick which of these books was my favourite as I enjoyed them all so much. If you haven’t started your seasonal reading yet then I would say this anthology is the perfect way in which to do so.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

IRRESISTIBLE AT CHRISTMAS (Irresistible Romance Book 2) an Anthology is full of some of the great writers I have read before but I have also found myself some newbies as I was so impressed with their stories. Each story is different but each one evolves around Christmas. Some are sweet, some are fun and some are funny and some pull at your emotions and make you cry but they all involve romance in various degrees. This is a wonderful collaboration of works coming together to give us a most pleasurable read.

Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift by Tamara Ferguson is just great. I love her wounded warrior series and spin offs etc. Great read. A story of waiting for the right time for love to reconnect with the love of your life and settle in to the love and life you have wanted since a first kiss in a magical place.
Gifts Of Love by Natalie Ann is a lovely story of a man who has everything but someone by his side. Can he show her that he is more than his money? Will she get over her past hurt to let him in?

Charlie Saint by Suzanne Jenkins is a story about a man who almost loses his life and the woman who chooses to stick around but she needs to let go of a painful past in order to truly open her heart. Beautiful story.

Home For Christmas by Cynthia Cooke is a lovely but painful read where Melanie returns to Pineville to renovate her old home and face old memories. If only the contractor was not the one person she has believed responsible for turning her world upside down.

Keep Me Warm by Alicia Street tells the heart-warming story of a small-town girl who suddenly finds herself in love with the enemies. Can they really be in love? Will they truly turn it around to become the one/

Miss Christmas by Stephanie Queen is a fun story of Scarlet who scraps by on the best days and decides she wants to become the next Miss Christmas pageant. When a stranger walks into her life she can’t believe her luck but is she willing to give him all her heart. He decides that she is not the one for him, no matter what his heart says. Will he let go and realise just how good they can be together?

Christmas Con by Rachelle Ayala, tells the sad story of two people who have just met but become a lie to keep a grandfather happy for what will be his last Christmas. Bring the tissues.

Courage To Celebrate by Taylor Lee this is also a sad tale but also one of something precious out of so much torment. Luke and Ava are dealing with the loss of several people in their community and now their hope and dreams has decided to come about a little earlier than they thought.

Christmas Wish by Patrice Wilton is a wonderful story of a man who loves them and leaves them and apparently has foot and mouth disease when he is in the same place as Meghan the new woman in town. Meghan has just moved towns to be closer to the special school her young son needs but when faced with the man upstairs she begins to wonder if she needs some her time and whether or not it could be more. But she can’t be a one night stand and is he willing to have more?
This one made me laugh as well.

I love reading anthologies because you get a number of books in one shot and who doesn’t love stories about love, hot men and adorable women and Christmas!!

What an Irresistible read this anthology turned out to be. Everyone knows I love a great anthology, and I am a real sucker for Christmas stories- so it’s a given that I will be diving in, especially so when I find one that combines the two. It had won me over as soon as I saw who the authors were- and they certainly didn’t disappoint. This book was every bit as good as I had imagined it would be, and then some.
Irresistible At Christmas (Irresistible Romance Book Two) is a collection of wonderful stories from nine very talented authors. The authors all have different styles and takes on the theme- which is Christmas/ holiday romance. Each story is unique and quite individual to their author- but all manage to complement one another as well. There are a variety of stories- all engrossing from beginning to end. From wounded warrior, sweet romance, enemies to lovers, 2nd chances, suspense, danger, and much more. Where we meet a variety of leading characters, who bring their stories to life.
This is definitely one of the better anthologies that I have read this year, and one of the better Christmas Anthologies full stop. All the stories are well written, very captivating, and well-rounded. What better way to spend a day than curled up with a book that will delight you and leave you feeling good.

The Anthology contains:

-Two Hearts Christmas Gift By: Tamara Ferguson
-Gifts Of Love By: Natalie Ann
-Charlie Saint: The Saints of San Diego By: Suzanne Jenkins
-Home For Christmas By: Cynthia Cooke
-Keep Me Warm By: Alicia Street
-Miss Christmas By: Stephanie Queen
Christmas Con By: Rachelle Ayala

So, settle down for some wonderful reading, which will entice you with heartfelt romance, emotion, some suspense, a bit of danger, a little mystery, drama, sizzle, and much more. There is something here for everyone!
I really do recommend this Anthology- it is worth every cent of the purchase price- nine books for the price of one. #Win-Win!
Happy Reading!

Thank you to all the contributing authors!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

One of my favorite things about the holidays is that usually this is the time we see a lot of new anthologies. I love to devour them myself but also love gifting them because it allows me the chance to share my favorite authors with my friends and family in an affordable way. Irresistible at Christmas is one that I knew I would need to get my hands on as soon as I could and I am so glad we have this collection of holiday themed stories that come from some of my personal favs and some the chance to meet some new ones!

I am a fan of Tamara Ferguson, Natalie Ann, and Stephanie Queen so those were my first go to’s to read and they were absolutely wonderful! I loved Tamara’s Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift. It is a small novella that fits in with her Two Heart’s series that I have followed from the get go. This was a bit of an extra treat to visit the scenes and watch the couple dance a romance across my kindle screen. I can’t wait to see what else will come in the remaining books I have and look forward to passing this on this season.

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

What a brilliant anthology of Christmas stories. These are all full length novels and while I’ve previously read two of the authors, the others were all new to me. While each book is a stand-alone, it is easy to see that some are part of a series. I was never at a loss for who is who or what came from where.

TWO HEARTS’ CHRISTMAS GIFT was written by Tamara Ferguson and is based on her Crystal Rock / Dragonfly Pointe Inn series. “Dragonfly Pointe was supposed to be magical; especially at Christmas.” The story is the perfect blend of holiday romance and redemption and, of course, magic.

That is just one example of the brilliant storytelling in this glorious anthology. I was feeling a little bah humbug and then read these stories over the last few days and my spirits were lifted.

I absolutely recommend this book.

This must read anthology is an absolute must add to all romance lovers – especially those that love the Christmas holiday. I am always on the lookout for the latest for Ferguson and knew I had to have this collection. Was thrilled to find stories from Street and Queen included. Each story was poignant and powerful and flirty and festive. I thoroughly enjoyed each tale and thought the collection was well thought out and compiled. From start to finish, it was an easy and very enjoyable read. Very much put me in the holiday mood.

5 out of 5 stars

If you love the Christmas season and romance this is the anthology for you. These stories will have your emotions going up and down the entire time, you are reading them. Mine sure did. There are sad moments and also heartwarming moments in these books. I love anthologies as they give me a chance to be introduced to new authors. This group of stories has a few authors I have read before and others it was my first time reading their work. All of these stories have a romantic feel to them, and I couldn’t help but care for the characters and I found myself wishing that they find happiness. I have to say that I really enjoyed Two Hearts’ Christmas Gift by Tamara Ferguson. Her stories always have me hooked from beginning to end. I also love that the characters that she writes about are wounded warriors and that attention is brought to then. Don’t miss out on a set of stories that will keep you glued to the pages or your Kindle. I highly recommend this anthology.
