"Hot Christmas Nights" by Farrah Rochon, Terra Little and Velvet Carter

Book Description....Three novellas...

"Baby it's cold outside, so stay warm with three sexy and sizzling-hot holiday stories.

TUSCAN NIGHTS by FARRAH ROCHON

It's not the breathtaking scenery that brings Aiden Williams to Italy for Christmas; it's gorgeous pastry chef Nyla Thompson. Five years ago Aiden's older brother was fool enough to let Nyla go. Now a mature and sexy Aiden is determined to turn their Italian fling into everlasting amore.

CHRISTMAS TANGO by TERRA LITTLEProfessional dancer Wendy Kincaid thinks she knows her best friend, Frazier Abernathy, inside out. But he's got a season of surprises in store for the woman he's always desired, leading to a sensual rendezvous where he'll raise the stakes in an all-out merry seduction…

TIED UP IN TINSEL by VELVET CARTER

Entertainment agent Landis Keates is stunned to learn that his old college classmate is now an international singing sensation! Back then, he was too clueless to notice Brooke Lynn Samuels. Now a friend's winter wedding in picturesque Bridgehampton is the perfect backdrop to a very intimate Yuletide reunion."

What I liked about the novel that contained all three novellas.....

These were some very interesting holiday anthologies. After reading them all... I did liked all of them. I enjoyed how each other was able to share a romantic story all during the holiday season.

The first novella by author Farrah Rochon's Tuscan Nights ...was a nice story of a love that had been there for Aiden and Nyla but would she be able to leave the past behind and start anew "Whether it's in Atlanta, or Tuscany, or on the moon." All Aiden wanted for Nyla was for her to be 'Happy.' To find out what all of that storyline is about you will have to pick up the sweet romantic holiday read.

Next...

We have Christmas Tango by Terra Little.. with her heroine being a dancer. Wendy Elizabeth Kincaid was owner of the Wendy Kincaid Dance Studio...but didn't Wendy want to have a professional choreography career with a world renowned dance company with The Greeley Dance Company? However, wasn't Wendy truly happy at running her own little dance studio and being her own boss? What happens when Wendy starts to receive several delivers to the studio(from a secret admirer)...and then one by a special messenger inviting her to dinner? Would she be able to tell her best friend Frazier about all of this? No...he would think she was crazy wanting to meet this person! Who was this secret admirer? Now, who do you think showed up to the dinner? As the story will go on we find Wendy will have to make some very important decisions in her life. Will Wendy get the Christmas Tango she wants...dancing and ... ? This is where I say you must pick up the sweet romance to see how this author will bring it out to the reader. I did like the ending. It was a good holiday read that I would recommend.

and last we have...

We have 'Tied Up in Tinsel by Velvet Carter... What will happen when Brooklyn is discovered by Landis? Back in college she was just 'Brooke Lynn Samuels but now Wow is how Landis feels after meeting her at their best friends wedding. Will something come of this? Will there be a problem that will enter into the picture? YES! I found this interesting but somewhat predictable but still a good sweet holiday read that I would still recommend.
