‘St. Nick’s Christmas Wish’ is written by author Tamara Ferguson and is part of the ‘Hot Hunks Steamy Romance Collection’ but can be read as a standalone story. This is another great book by Ferguson, and the storyline and the characters had me hooked from the start. Stockbroker Nick Hanover and stylist Emma Caffrey are both holidaying with friends in Bali when they meet. Getting over a cheating fiancé Nick does not make a great first impression on Emma but the two do share a very heated kiss before the holidays over. However it’s not until they both find themselves back in Crystal Rock that the pair discover if it’s just chemistry they share or something deeper. As well as romance and steamy scenes the storyline also has plenty of drama and when Nick’s half brothers life is in danger family secrets emerge. I loved the main characters, Emma and Nick and how their relationship developed and their obvious chemistry led to some steamy scenes. The secondary characters are also fascinating and I look forward to reading their stories throughout the series. I was cheering Nick and Emma on to their happy ever after.

Tamara Ferguson is a go-to author of mine, each read she creates transports you into an amazing real world, that you find hard to escape from.
This read is no different, this is a great feel-good holiday read that can be read any time of the year! I absolutely loved reading Emma & Nick’s story. Their story had me hooked from the very beginning and couldn’t wait to see where it would take them. This read had the right amount of sweet romance and the right amount of steaminess to make this the perfect romance read, and to add to it it had twists and turns and secrets that you didn’t see coming.
Both of these characters are real, and you couldn’t help but love them from the moment this read begins. Throughout this read that I was hooked by I couldn’t help but hope that these two characters could find a way to work things out and get a HEA.
I highly recommend this read and this author you will not be disappointed in finding this author and being captivated by her reads! Don’t miss this read!
This was a lovely story about 2 strangers who meet by random. Its a really well written story and the characters are likeable and easily to relate to.
Nick and his friends were on holiday in Bali when they come across a group of woman on holiday too. The attraction between Emma and Nick was instant but since Nick was getting over heartbreak he didn’t want to risk it again.
However, the connection between them is so strong neither of them could forget it.
Its Christmas again when they next meet. Can the spirit of Christmas help them finally give into to their feelings for each other? Or will problems in their past stop make them stronger or tear them apart?
Holiday Hunks- St. Nick’s Christmas Wish by Tamara Ferguson is part of the Hot Hunks- Steamy Romance collection (Book #7). It is a sweet contemporary romance, with plenty of chemistry, spice, intriguing developments , and wonderful characters. I have said this so many times before that Ms. Ferguson is one of my ‘one-click- no questions asked’ authors- as I know that she will always deliver a story that I won’t want to leave. Her stories are ones in which I can lose myself completely, and easily having me invested in the story and wonderful characters- and this story was no exception. This is a very quick and easy read, with a great pace and a smooth flow. I devoured it in practically no time at all. As usual, I loved Ms. Ferguson’s attention to detail and all the interconnected elements she weaves into her stories. It gives her stories added interest, as well as some charm. Nick is a friend of Rand’s (from Rand’s Resolution: After Hurricane Nina Series) who meets the lovely Emma while in Bali- one night is all it takes- but things are never quite that simple, and this story has a few surprises in store. Intriguing developments woven around a sweet Christmas romance- and I was hooked! One of my favourite stories from Ms. Ferguson- one that can be enjoyed any time of the year, but especially leading up to and around Christmas! Looking forward to whatever Ms. Ferguson does next.
Holiday Hunks – St. Nick’s Christmas Wish is the seventh book in the Hot Hunks Steamy Romance Collection by Tamara Ferguson. The title of this book, and the collection even, did not disappoint. Nick is a hunk, who’s been burned by love in the past. He’s lost all confidence in himself since breaking off his engagement because he caught his fiance cheating. While vacationing in Bali with friends, he spots the beautiful Emma, who is also with friends. Emma tends to run away from men when things start getting serious. Sharing one hot kiss, Nick is determined to get to know Emma more, despite the fact that he isn’t sure if she is after him or his family’s money. Their paths cross again in Crystal Rock during a Christmas charity. As Emma watches Nick play Santa for the kids, she realizes there may be more to Nick than his rough personality. Reading how Nick and Emma start letting their guard down with one another was very heartwarming. I liked the way the author thoroughly introduced Nick’s childhood in the beginning chapters, as it would play an important role for Nick’s personality. I really enjoyed this book and plan on reading others in this collection.
Holiday Hunks-St. Nick’s Christmas Wish (Hot Hunks Steamy Romance Collection Book 7) by Tamara Ferguson is a favourite of mine and I am in love with the wounded warriors and Crystal Rock series. As well as being a sweet romance there is another plot in the background that is mysterious and intriguing. This beautiful Christmas romance is multi layered and the characters are relatable and loveable. One kiss in a holiday destination is all it takes for the heart to want what it wants, and Nick and Emma are drawn to one another and sparks fly but will they see each other again? I love Tamara’s books because she writes with such heart and I always look forward to more.
This book is a beautiful Christmas love story. This story sparks like wildfire as the two leading characters, Nick and Emma are drawn to one another after just one kiss. Nick seems to need to heal and has a secret of his own. This story is layered and great to read as you wish the best for two characters in this steamy and romantic read. This will keep you entertained and with wonderful characters in this original book. I love Tamara Ferguson’s books because she writes with such intent!
Nick and Emma – LOVED these characters! Ferguson has a fabulous way of weaving sweet romantic tails with just the right number of twists and drama along the way to keep you glued to each page. I loved the path this book took and enjoyed reading about Nick and Emma. You can’t go wrong with any of Ferguson’s books; this is another winner!
Tamara Ferguson is a go-to read author for me when I want a sweet romance. She has several that are some of my favorites among her Crystal Rock series that I love and read over and over. When I found out while reading this one it crosses over to Crystal Rock I was maybe a tad ecstatic lol. I loved how this is a holiday read but is one that could be enjoyed year round with the premise of the love that is around that season can and does spread year round if you let it. This is a fabulous way to delve into a cool read and escape for a few hours from the heat of the sun in the summer, or you could curl up next to the fire with hot cocoa in the winter and heat up with it. St. Nick’s Christmas Wish is a fun ride that takes us to Bali and then back to Crystal Rock. We follow Nick as he navigates his heartstrings and Emma’s. He knows she is the one for him but he will have to work a bit at convincing Emma… will they make it out with a happily ever after? I can’ t wait to read the other novels in this collection soon!
Entertaining. That is a word I would use for this book. While some of this is serious other parts are certainly funny and made me smile. Emma and Nick has a rocky start but all it took was one “out of their minds” kiss and a little luck for them to get together. Oh…and maybe a Santa suit. Jack helped make this a fun story. He seemed lighthearted and ready for a laugh. Nick has some family issues that seemingly pop back up. I enjoyed this short holiday romp. This is the second book of these three friends. i liked that this was done with a holiday theme. Jack and Janelle are all that’s left.
Tamara Ferguson has always been one of my “go-to” authors. I have loved every book she has written and this book included. This book is about a broken hearted stock broker named Nick Hanover. His childhood wasn’t one some of the typical teenage boys he knew had. His parents hardly ever speak and never came to any of his games. Mike took him under his wing being 2 years older and they built a great friendship. That’s when Nick realized there were secrets in his family. When Nick turned 18 his dad was a lot more open about things and told Nick things no one else knew. At 18 years old Nick will have a lot on his plate. About 12 years later, Nick is nursing a broken heart and decides to go vacation on Bali with Jack and they stay at with their childhood friend Rand. When they are out they meet 3 women Ciara, Janelle and Emma. Nick and Emma immediately have chemistry but of course they gets messed up somehow but not before they share a heated kiss that neither can forget when vacation ends. Emma and Nick end up running into each other again in Crystal Rock. Everything seems to be going well for them until Mick gets that phone all about his half brother. Will Nick be able to tell Emma all the secrets and still be happy or will the secrets tear them apart. This book has a lot going on but it was a really good book and keeps you interested from the very beginning.
St. Nick’s Christmas Wish by Tamara Ferguson is the 7th book in Holiday Hunks – Hot Hunks Steamy Romance Collection. It takes us (back) into her Crystal Rock universe in Wisconsin with Emma Caffrey and Nick Hanover. It is a lovely holiday read that would be a great introduction into Tamara’s universe where Crystal Rock meets Wounded Warriors and I promise you, you will get hooked on it and you will want to go and read EVERYTHING she has written and I promise you many many hours of pleasure! I love how Tamara tells us the story of human depravity that one overpowers with love and care and that there is light at the end of the tunnel and hope, always hope and love! Every single one of stories carries a deeper feeling and gets woven into the fabric and magic of Dragon Pointe.
St. Nick’s Christmas Wish (Holiday Hunks Book 7 – Hot Hunks-Steamy Romance Collection Book) by Tamara Ferguson is a fantastic story that I just could not put down. The author does an amazing job of taking you on a journey with the characters. I couldn’t help but love them! I wanted to read more about them and I really wanted them to find a way to make things work. I liked that the story was fun and festive but also had a more serious side to it. I found myself connecting with the characters and the story. The author has created a brilliant story that really draws you in. This is an amazing book and one I cannot recommend highly enough.
St Nick’s Christmas Wish is the 7th book in the Hot Hunks Steamy Romance Collection. It is written by Tamara Ferguson who has become a favourite of mine in recent months since I discovered her wounded warriors series. When I started to read this book I had no idea that it was linked to this series and this was a very pleasant surprise. I really enjoyed this book, the characters are fantastic and the storyline really grabs you and keeps you wanting to keep going and see what happens next. As well as the romance between main characters Nick and Emma there is an intriguing storyline regarding Nick’s childhood running along at the same time. As well as Nick and Emma, there is a great cast of secondary characters, in Nick and Emma’s friends who I’m sure may become the main characters in future books by Tamara Ferguson. With the insights we got into these other characters, I am looking forward to reading more about them. I also really enjoyed the crossover with the wounded warrior books and getting to revisit some favourite characters again.
St. Nick’s Christmas Wish (Holiday Hunks Book 7 – Hot Hunks-Steamy Romance Collection Book) by Tamara Ferguson was the Christmas read I needed this July. I loved Nick and Emma, they were perfect for each other. I enjoyed the way the story and characters developed. I loved that I never felt too overwhelmed with the story, the pacing was perfect. I did not want to put this book down!
When a chance meeting in a bar, can fate really be in the stars.
Nick and his friends are enjoying there holiday, he needed this break as things are getting confusing with him working as a stock broker and also secretly running his family business can he just relax. While in Bali he and his friends meet a group of woman in a bar and that’s when he discovers Emma.
Emma is on holiday with her friends, leaving behind her responsibilities from Crystal Rock for a few weeks is just what the doctor ordered but meeting Nick on his last night of his holiday is just her luck. They have instant chemistry and feels cheated that there encounter was so short.
While away Nick evaluates his life and when a proposal is delivered to him from his friend Jake to run his property company in Crystal Rock. Nick and Jack arrive and run straight into Emma, they can’t believe it. As the story goes through you learn that Nick has secrets and mysteries which he has to uncover to protect both Emma and his family and will he be able to protect them.
I loved this story the character of Emma is of a strong, confident and Independent women who deserves happiness, Nick has always overcome the label of his family but he is humble and kind not the bratty rich kid that normally ends up in this kind of character so he was a breathe of fresh air. It’s always nice to go back to Crystal Rock and love this just as much as the other series. If your looking for a good story line with action and Santa then you need to read this book.

This is a great holiday story that will warm your heart and bring the heat too. It is written with a lot of heart and soul. That is one of my favorite things about this author is her writing skills and that she writes from the heart. This is one of my favorites of her yet. This is a holiday story that takes place in Bali and ends up in Crystal Rock. Nick and Emma meet each other in Bali and are instantly attracted to each other. They share a heat filled kiss and Nick knows he wants more of her. What happens after Nick finds himself in Crystal Rock is where you need to pick up this book to read.

The Last Thing Emma Expects Is To Fall For A Scrooge. But Little Does She Know That Nick Is Hiding A Big Secret.
Vacationing on Bali with friends, stockbroker Nick Hanover catches a glimpse of a beautiful blonde and is instantly attracted. But Nick’s confidence has been tested significantly during the last year after recently breaking up with a fiancé who was cheating.
Stylist Emma Caffrey is on Bali for a holiday with two of her best friends. Although she’s had a string of steady boyfriends, she’s always pulled back whenever the man begins getting serious.
Doubting his ability to distinguish if someone is interested in him or just his family’s money, Nick leaves Emma with a bad impression when they finally meet.
But after sharing a heated kiss, Nick realizes that he’s not going to be satisfied until he gets to know her better.
Despite Emma’s first impression, she’s equally attracted to Nick, and when he shows up in Crystal Rock taking on some of the town’s charity causes at Christmas, including dressing as Santa for the kids from the Crystal Rock Center for children with disabilities, she realizes there’s more to him than meets the eye, despite his gruff, off-putting personality.
Besides, who could resist a kiss from Santa?
Although Nick had everything money could provide growing up, he finally comes to understand why he was mostly ignored as a child. Nick’s family has a lot of tragic secrets and, now, someone might be attempting to take his half-brother’s life.
Will Emma be the loving influence that helps bring his family back together, so St. Nick’s secret Christmas wish will finally come true?
