Camo Christmas

by Jennifer Traveler

Tara Hartnell loves her best friend, Kelly Martin, but Kelly's older brother Mason has been her worst enemy since grade school. Now Mason's back from active duty in the Middle East, and Tara's visiting the Martins for Christmas. Can they call a truce for the weekend or will close quarters spark World War III?

The death of her parents and Kelly's marriage have made this a difficult year for Tara. The last few months have been the loneliest of her life. Mason's advances don't help matters, especially since she's convinced they're a setup to yet another of his tricks. She's come prepared, however, and she's determined to get the revenge she's been waiting for since sixth grade.

Mason's had more than his fair share of combat experience, but he never expected Tara to be such a cunning adversary. All he wants is a kiss, but getting close to her is like fighting his way through a minefield. Now it's time for the Martins' oldest family Christmas Eve paintball. Can Mason finally capture the woman of his dreams, or will Tara's plans for revenge succeed all too well?

This book is bad. Weston and I have now listened to it two years in a row.

Edit:

Year three. Still bad. Wouldn’t be a Sheffield Christmas without it.

Year four: nothing says ‘romance’ like telling your love interest you hope he doesn’t make it back from Afghanistan

1stRead by this author. . . Quickie read (about an hour) simple to the point Christmas love story. Tara and Mason both have things they need to say but the past keeps poking its head in the way. But in the end it all comes out. Traveler mixes the holiday with tragedy and make love come out.

Great short read. My favorite part the the family paintball fight for Christmas. Teams 'them' and 'us'. Black bears and Pink Bunnies. Cute idea

Spice: 🌶️

This was a novella so it was short (audiobook was only an hour) but it was cute and sweet. It could have been better though if there was a whole book behind it. I wanted to know more about the main characters and had an ending finish so fast that hit me like whiplash. Overall decent quick holiday romance.

Could have been cute but seriously? We are supposed to believe that just because he had loved her forever, that the same day he finally gets the courage to kiss her and tell her how he feels he proposes?
Listened to on Libby app audiobook

This is one of the stupidest things I've ever read. I literally laughed so loud on several occasions that I scared my boyfriend.

Cute, but to short for the big jump. It's good if you need a quick story jump.

Did this play through my headphones? Yes. Did I hear it all? Yes. Did I absorb a single word? Absolutely not. Does it actually count as a read for the year? Debatable… but here we are.

This is so short it can barely count as a book. Maybe a short story.

Way to quick
Story didn’t feel complete and there’s not enough time to focus on anything.
Romance was way to quick.

Gifted audio for honest review ⭐️⭐️

Quick read.

A little light and fairly pleasant read.

[Roz Curney-Sherod · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very, very short novella but I enjoyed this Christmas tale. Romantic without being mussy with a contemporary story-line.

Loved this short sweet romance.
