Christmas is looming and Jack De Lacy needs a solution to one hell of a fix.
Dumped by his boyfriend in favour of his best friend, Jack’s been busy bragging about the hot new man in his life.
A hot new man who doesn’t exist.
With an important function to attend where he’ll come face-to-face with his ex, Jack knows he’ll be a laughing stock when his boasts are exposed as nothing more than wishful thinking. He’s desperate but time, like his options, is running out.
Rory Kincaid is scared he won’t last another night sleeping rough on London’s frozen, snowbound streets. With all the homeless shelters full, Rory seeks refuge in the first empty doorway he stumbles across.
Finding Rory shivering in the sub-zero temperatures, Jack can no more send him away than kick a puppy out into the cold. A shower, shave and hot drink later, and the grubby street kid is transformed into a beautiful young man.
As the attraction between them grows, so does a plan that will get Jack out of the mess he’s in and give Rory a warm, safe home for Christmas. Sweet and adorable, Rory will make a great fake boyfriend for the festive season – the problem is, neither Jack nor Rory is sure where the make believe ends and the truth begins.
Warning: this 37k novella contains a camp Christmas tree, a drag queen Christmas fairy called Doris, way too many jugs of eggnog, a closet posh boy, and the sweetest Kiss Before Christmas ever.
A Kiss Before Christmas by A.E. Ryecart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
OMG this is a perfect slow burn Holiday story that I needed! This is hands down one of (my) favorite heartwarming, adorable that everyone need to read.
Finding Rory on his doorstep was like a God gift from heaven for Jack, after he vowed he hated Christmas after his (ex) boyfriend dumped him for his best friend. What a bless for Jack, he just didn't know it yet while he's still pissed off. He took Rory, and all of a sudden, Rory's well being was his sole purpose. He need to see Rory all comfort for this season, and one thing leads to another (no, not that, you perv! ;)). Rory has become important for Jack. And Jack needed Rory to 'stay'.
A kiss before Christmas is an adorable, sweet, enjoyable read, I'll even let my twelve year old kid to read. Sometimes, we just need Jack's golden heart to make the world a better place :)
Sigh. Read this book!
