Tastes Like Sugar (Collier's Creek Christmas)


And the Christmas ARCs have started!!! Here's Becca Seymour's "Tastes Like Sugar." It's a part of the multi-author series, Collier's Creek Christmas.

["Nothing like sugar kisses to bring people together for the holidays…

After ditching the chaos of city life—and a cheating fiancĂ©—I’m more than ready for a fresh start. Collier’s Creek, with its small-town charm and the warmth of my family, seems like the perfect place to regroup. Throw in a job offer as the new office manager for the local fire department, and it feels like everything is falling into place.

That is, until I meet Hayes.

The confident, cocky, and sinfully sexy firefighter is all smooth moves and effortless charm. Our connection? Instant. Our chemistry? Scorching. But here’s the problem: I’m supposed to be wrangling the firefighters and keeping the department in line, not getting distracted by the hottest man in town—who also happens to be my nephew’s best friend.

As the fire department’s Mr. December, Hayes is used to turning heads, but he’s got his sights set on me. And while I’ve sworn off mixing business with pleasure, this guy makes resisting nearly impossible. Every sweet gesture and playful flirtation chips away at my resolve, leaving me wondering if this time around, I should just give in.

Because the more time I spend with Hayes, the more I realize he’s not just fire and heat—he’s all heart. But with our undeniable attraction and my unease of our familial connection as well as our age gap, can we handle the sparks flying between us without getting burned?"]

Instant attraction and heavy spice right in the first chapter? And our poor, sweet Sully things he can resist Hayes after all of that serendipity and chemistry? Suuuuure, babe, sure. ;) Especially when Hayes sets his sights (and heart) one more than one night, more than a hookup, more than just friends. 

These two were...easy. Their connection was stressless, their talks were silence-less. They made friendship (and more) work without all just much of work. Yes, they each had their own histories (and Sully with his hangups), but it wasn't filled with angst and pining (okay, so a little bit of pining--but it was mutual and sweet as hell).

And now I have to read the rest of this series... And the OG series...
