Holiday Ever After by Amy Andrews
4.0

I'm reviewing two stories from this anthology!
Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Red Bikini by Amy Andrews
A delightful second chance romance between a grizzly rancher and his the girl he dated in high school, a recently returned to their small Montana home from her world travels as a photographer and Instagram influencer. He's pined for her for years, but she needed to spread her wings. Super sexy and super fun, I loved these two idiots who just fell right back in to love with minimum fuss. A great non-angsty holiday story.

Professional Development by Kate Canterbary
My favorite, enemies to lovers, with two characters who work at the charter school run by Lauren Walsh (from Canterbary's The Walshes series). They have the same role but over two different age groups and have butted heads since the beginning. He's a pretty, uptight, know-it-all and she's a sunny, cute, but tough as nails elementary school head teacher. They are forced to take a professional development seminar by their boss so they can learn to get along, but end up banging it out instead after they get stuck in the snow on the way home (ONLY ONE BED). Canterbary is great at developing angst and fire and this is a lusciously hot story.

I'll probably get to the other stories in this anthology one day, but these are the two authors who I really wanted to read. Currently free and only available for a limited time on Amazon, so I suggest you snap this one up quick! (less)
