So Twisted by Melissa Marino

Sometimes it feels good to be a little bad.

Callie has found the perfect job. As nanny for a single dad and his adorable daughter, she can pay off her student loans and live in a nice house in the heart of Chicago. There's just one problem-her new boss. Definitely no dad bod here. Just six-plus feet of raw, sexual energy. Whoever heard of a dad being so hot?

From the sparkle in his daughter's eyes, Aaron can see that hiring Callie was a good decision. But Callie's breathtaking smile and long legs have him thinking about his own needs. Aaron knows it's a bad idea to get involved with the nanny, but it's been years since anyone has captivated him like Callie.

When living under the same roof proves too tempting to resist, Callie and Aaron discover a mind-blowing passion unlike anything either has experienced. But with a curious child and a nosy family in the mix, their secret, no-strings fling soon turns into a twisted, tangled knot . . .

SMP Romance Holiday Blitz!

One of my favorite things to do during the holidays is to watch movies.  We have to watch some kid friendly ones, but when I have a moment to myself, I turn on The Holiday.  It's one of my favorites! 

Mandy Baxter agrees with me! 

Laura Trentham loves Elf.  "It's hilarious and heartwarming. But the season can't pass with at least one family viewing of Christmas Vacation. Cousin Eddie is the best! Sometimes I'm in the mood for a classic like Miracle on 34th Street (with Maureen O'Hara, of course!) or It's a Wonderful Life."

A Christmas Story is one of Tara Wyatt's favorite holiday movies.  "I'd never seen it growing up, and the first Christmas we were dating, my now husband introduced me to it. It had always been one of his favorites, and he was excited to watch it with me. We have a tradition of watching it together at least once in the days leading up to Christmas now."

 

 Add a little Happily Ever After to your holidays with these books from St. Martin's Press!

Review: Till I Kissed You by Laura Trentham

It’s summertime in Cottonbloom, where two lovers find themselves at a crossroads just as things start to heat up. . . 

Regan Lovell grew up on the wealthy Mississippi side of Cottonbloom—and now, as mayor, she’s determined to save it from the fate of so many small towns. Part of her plan to help the local economy is the Labor Day tomato festival. If only she wasn’t being undermined by Sawyer Fournette, who’s planning a crayfish-themed celebration on the Louisiana side of the river on the very same weekend. The pranks and sabotage are getting out of hand, and she’s had it with him—no matter how much she enjoyed those stolen hours in his truck bed, so many years ago…

Sawyer knows that Regan's never forgiven him for breaking her heart—but despite his reputation as a low-class swamp rat, he’d never hurt the woman who still secretly drives him crazy with desire. Someone in Cottonbloom has it out for her, though, and Sawyer intends to watch her back…and the rest of her too, if she can ever let go of her distrust. But will a common enemy be enough to unite them—and finally fulfill the promises they made one passionate night under the stars?

Regan and Sawyer have been secondary characters throughout the Cottonbloom series.  They've also been at odds with each other. 

Regan is the mayor of Cottonbloom, Mississippi, and Sawyer is the parish manager for Cottonbloom, Louisiana.  Both want their respective festivals to succeed.  Unfortunately, a series of pranks threaten the festivals, and then actual threats come against Regan. 

We learn more about what led to the original break-up of Regan and Sawyer, which I thought was a little underwhelming.  There are class differences and prejudices throughout the series, so I'm not sure why I was surprised Regan's upbringing came into play.  Once they give in to their feelings, however, nothing can keep Regan and Sawyer apart.  Ms. Trentham excels at sexual tension and heat between characters. 

I really enjoyed this entire series and am a little sad to leave both Cottonblooms.  

(A very special thank you to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for providing me with an ARC of Till I Kissed You.)
