Four For Christmas

Ménage and More #2

by R.G. Alexander

Dreaming of a White Christmas led her straight into their arms...

In this holiday spin off of the bestselling novella Three For Me?, saving a man in a snowstorm leads Georgia Bale to an isolated cabin, where three men have an important promise to keep. A promise Georgia soon becomes caught up in herself.

She just wanted to survive Christmas, and her bad holiday karma. She had no idea that accepting a friend's invitation to Colorado would lead her to her perfect man. Times three.

What does an eccentric writer do when a compassionate doctor, a dominant police officer, and a handsome adrenaline junkie only have eyes for her?

Use her imagination.

But when the storm clears, she'll have to decide which path to take. The way back home, or the road less traveled.

Warning: A bit of heart tugging, excessive use of imagination, role playing (the dirty kind), foursomes, magic, a guardian angel or two... and the kinky use of holiday themed beverages.

Could have been a great story. Or better yet it was but the felt incomplete. Then maybe its a cliffhanger but NO. Thats it.
This book ends @ 61% and my font seemed unusually large. Yep, WTF???

Hot Menage scene: 5+
Hot sexy guys: 5+
Interesting/alluring heroine:5

Took a star away for every 20%.
I think the title needs to change to Four For Christmas and Excerpts to Other Books.

For starters i really loved the cover of this book. Covers are usually what first attracts me to a book. This one pops right out at you. I like all kinds of romance related genre's including erotica. It's not often as emotional as this one was. Georgia used to love Christmas and then suddenly it seemed to suck every year. She couldn't get into the spirit of it. She decides to visit her friend in Colorado for Christmas in the hope this year it would help her mood. In the mountains of Colorado in a snow storm she is a little lost and ends up with a flat on her rental SUV. Her faith dog Roux ( Isn't that the cutest name) gets out with her to change the tire and Roux runs off and finds a man in the snow. She ends up saving him and his foster brother ends up saving her when she starts feeling the effects of the cold in her southern outerwear. This sets her up in a cabin with 3 foster brothers. A doctor, a policeman and a adrenaline junkie. Three big ole strapping guys who of course are sexy as hell and as sweet as they come. She find herself attracted to all three and they to her. Her best friend is in a relationship with a guy and a girl, but is something like that for her? This is the erotic part of the story but the heart tugging comes later. The three foster brothers ( Chris, James and Flynn) used to be four. One was in the Marines and didn't make it home but he sent these gifts and letters to his brothers every year and this year they had the last one he sent. Georgia had this awesome grandpa that used to tell her stories about her grandma that she never met. He was a wonderful man with a big heart and somehow the grandpa and the other Foster brother ( Nick) links them all together. I won't tell you how because you need to read the book to find out but i had a few OMG OMG moments and it wasn't from the sex scenes which were fantastic btw. lol This was one of the best erotica romances I have read. There is great sex scenes, good connections between the characters and a kick ass story to go with it all. I read this in one sitting and was sad to see it end. I am going to be buying the novella related to this one to read. The first chapter is at the back of this one for you to get a peek at. 5 out of 5 Modokker Book Pick stars for Four for Christmas by RG Alexander.

I've loved pretty much every book I've read from R.G. Alexander, but Three For Me? is one of my all-time favorites. So, when I saw this one, I bought it and devoured it right up.

Hot sex, poignant emotions, a sassy female lead, and 3 hot mountain men. All wrapped up and this touching Christmas story.

I really enjoyed getting to know the characters, and I'm so glad they didn't jump into the sex. They took a few days to get to know each other. And really, when you're living with someone, you do get to know one another. That being said, when they do get to the sex, watch out! It's hot and plentiful. Georgia gets three amazing guys and she gets to enjoy them all thoroughly, even at the same time.

There are a lot of emotions tied up into this story. I was pleasantly surprised by this, it really sucked me in and made me invested in the characters. I was kind of excited by the guest appearance by Simon, too! And I want to know when we get to read Carrie, Lou Ann and Lee's story? They are all in this story, as well.

All in all, another amazing offering from R.G. I can't wait to see what she has in store next!

Not bad for a freebie but I doubt it's a story I'll read again. I liked the characters for the most part but thought it was a little odd that literally every single relationship amongst the group of friends involves at least 3 people. It was used as a way to justify why the female lead wouldn't find it odd to pretty much instantly shack up with 3 guys she just met but it felt a little odd to me.

This was a very good story. I liked Georgia and enjoyed seeing her get together with Chris, Jimmy and Flynn. This was a very enjoyable story but be warned, it's short...even shorter than I expected at first because although it says it's about 160 pgs long, the story finishes at the 61% mark on my Kindle so my guess is that the story s actually closer to around 90 pgs or so long.

Georgia is a writer which was mostly inspired by her growing up with her Grandfather who told her tales all the time that she loved. Georgia's birthday is on Christmas and as she was growing up she always had a wonderful Christmas attitude. Unfortunately, in the years since her Grandfather died, she's been having a string of bad Christmases which has made her feel more Grinchy than normal. Trying to regain a good holiday spirit, Georgia is heading to her friend Connie's place in Colorado for the holidays (Connie was one of the people that got married in the f/m/f relationship in first book Three for Me?). Unfortunately, Georgia gets a flat tire on an isolated highway and ends up with no cell signal and starts wondering if this Christmas will be as bad as usual.

Chris is a doctor, Jimmy is a Highway patrolman, and Flynn is an instructor for skiing and snowboarding. All 3 of them grew up together in foster care and although they have no blood relations they consider each other brothers. They had a 4th brother, Nicholas, but he died while in the Army. The 3 men have taken to spending Christmas together as part of a holiday tradition. In keeping with this tradition, Flynn is out finding the "perfect" tree on his snowmobile when he wrecks and is conked on the head. Fortunately for Flynn, he ends up being saved by a "Christmas Angel".

When Georgia is trying to change her tire, she lets her dog, Roux, out of the car. Roux promptly leads Georgia to a man that appears to have been in a snowmobile wreck and is hurt. Georgia manages to get him back to her car and is determined to help him when the Highway patrol shows up. Georgia is from Louisiana and isn't used to the cold so she's not dressed well enough to be protected and by this time is suffering from mild hypothermia. The highway patrolman, who ends up being Jimmy, takes her and Flynn back to the brothers' cabin so that Chris (who's a doctor) can check them both out. There's also a storm coming which means Georgia will be trapped with the 3 men for a bit. When Georgia awakes to find herself warm and being taken care of she's a little freaked but reassured when she's able to talk to Connie over the phone. Connie is a nurse and has worked with Chris and assures Georgia she's safe with the men until the storm is over and the roads can be cleared.

Georgia spends a couple days with the men and quickly realizes that all 3 men are good men and that she's strongly attracted to them all. Nothing happens except getting to know each other until the night when they "trim the tree". Chris, Jimmy and Flynn include her in their rather touching Christmas tradition and she even takes part, making it even more special. They have some shots as part of the ceremony and then have a few more after it's done. Georgia ends up tipsy enough that she says stuff she normally wouldn't say out loud and it comes out that she wants all of them. They all want her and the foursome end up having a very hot night. The next day (while everything is still rather unsettled) Connie shows up unexpectedly to get Georgia and the foursome is split up. Some serious thinking has to be done on both side and I wont say who goes to who but it does end very well. In the end, they come together and even find out that maybe their meeting has a little Christmas magic interwoven as some facts come out that make their coming together seem very "meant to be". The story ends with them together and it seems to be a good start for a sweet HEA.

Overall I found this story to be very enjoyable. I really liked the characters and liked the unexpected twist in the story that gave it the "Christmas miracle" feel. Although I kind of wish it had been a little longer so we could get more of a feel of the foursome together, I did like the ending as it ends with feelings of love and hope. Very nice Christmas menage with a touching ending. I'd recommend this book. Thumbs up. :)

12/24/15 - Christmas reread and I still like the story very much. :)

I went from crying to laughing, and hit every emotion in between.

My first thought when I saw the book cover was, "Dear lord, how in the world is the heroine going to handle three men? Three?! Typically a ménage is more than enough for me but given the fabulous track record of this author in delivering kick-ass stories, I gave Four For Christmas a try.

I was NOT disappointed!

Georgia Bale is a small town girl who has lost someone very dear to her. Ever since that unfortunate passing, Christmas just hasn't had the appeal that it once had. And when she gets stuck in white-out conditions on a lone road in the Rockies while on the way to spend Christmas with her very best girlfriend, she is thoroughly convinced the Christmas deities are out to get her.

This book made me feel. I mean really feel the emotions of all the characters involved. Many short stories seem to fall of a cliff toward the end, or they're stuffed with sex for sex's sake. This book, however, has such a well-developed plot, even in its few pages, that I was not left wanting at the end. I felt that all the questions had been answered, and all the loose ends tied up. In fact, I do believe I sat back in my chair with a contented sigh and a smile on my face.

Well written, believable story that made me truly believe a relationship of this complexity could actually work. And as skeptical as I am, that's really saying something!

When Georgia decided to head to Colorado to visit a friend for Christmas she had no idea what was in store for her. It started when her bad Christmas karma had her GPS playing tricks on her, then lead to a flat tire, and finally ended with her being stranded at a cabin with 3 completely gorgeous men.


This was an amazing story. Incredibly emotional, heartfelt, and extremely sexy. I sincerely enjoyed reading this and could not put it down. I stayed up till the wee hours of the morning just to finish it in one sitting. It had be laughing, crying, ok sobbing, fanning myself, and smiling all before the end pages. The absolute heart wrenching holiday tradition that is shared was so incredible that I don't think I will ever forget it. I could feel the emotions coming off the pages. The plot was perfect for a short story. It wasn't too complex where I felt things were ignored or left out yet it wasn't lacking either. The progression of the relationships was very believable. It didn't rush to the "I love yous" yet you could feel the bond building and developing throughout the whole story. Even though I have not read "Three for Me" I like how those characters were brought back just enough to get a glimpse of how they are doing. This was an all around great story and one that, to me, had everything to make it the perfect holiday read.


Would I recommend this to a friend? Absolutely w/o a doubt!

[Book Gremlin Reads · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely loved this. I am not going to lie; I cried a little when reading the ending.

Georgia was a wonderful character, strong, a little down about her bad holiday karma but when she meets Chris, Jimmy and Flynn, from the start you can already see a change.

Not only do they help her though, Christmas is a bad time of the year for Chris, Jimmy and Flynn. They lost their brother Nicholas over two and a half years ago and Georgia really makes the Christmas better, less difficult for all three men.

The emotion of this novella, I cannot even encompass the depth of it. It has to be one of the best things I have read all year.

It is also very hot, one woman, and three hunky men? Need I say more? Why are you still here? Go buy this! ;)

Christmas cheer, hot sex and an emotionally fulfilling read. A must read for anyone who is looking for a great short holiday read, on the steamy side.

[Heather book whore & shifter slut extrordinaire · Rating 5 out of 5]

Sweet, short read but again this woman can write some fabulous erotica! And even though she is writing ménage scenes she never crosses over that faint, unseen line that takes it into something more pornographic/exhibitionist.

This book was a freebie that I picked up and the second of this author's work that I had read. I like the fact that while she doesn't try and write too much of a plot into these stories (especially the short ones) they are also not simply a get together bangfest with a group of consenting adults.

To me these books - and I have only read two of them - seem to offer the reader the possibility that love comes in many forms and faces and ways and asks who are we to judge the kind of love others find? Obviously this is romantic/erotic fiction and probably very different than most people's life experiences but isn't that what fiction is for? To open our eyes and our hearts to the what-ifs and the could this happens? To give the everyday us the chance to find and explore the possibilities.... One of the lines from the book is stuck in my head and I think this is really the whole idea of the book and the lifestyle "...she had found the perfect man. He was just broken up into three parts."

Do you love Christmas ? Or are you like Georgia Bale and think you have a Christmas curse? Curse or not Georgia is determined to have a good holiday with her friends but the weather, her cute little puppy, and her GPS have have other plans for her. These ideas include being stranded on the side of the road, finding an unconscious snowmobiler, being rescued by a handsome cop, and being looked after by a great doctor with one hell of a bedside manner.
So much happens when stranded for Christmas week with 3 hunky men. Emotions of lust, loss, and hope swirl around them all until it can't be contained any longer. Lots of surprises in this emotional driven story. While the sex will melt the snow the emotional connection and twist will keep the fire burning in you to finish this book in one sitting.
RG can always be counted on for steamy sex and emotions. I cried and laughed - just what I want out of a book! I highly recommend this read to those of you who are looking for a read that will help keep you warm during this chilly holiday season.

[Laurie · Rating 5 out of 5]

This author is friggin' amazing! Not only did the author combine a sweet and gripping tale of 4 boys who grew up together in a foster home who became brothers, but a heart warming Christmas tale wrapped with enduring love. This story is topped off when Georgia, a published author, meets 3 big, gorgeous men who all want her...bad. She wants them too, but that's wrong, right? They endeavor to show her that she can have all three of them...at the same time. Hot damn!

This story was so exquisitely written that I want to be Georgia! The sex was graphic, yet quite tastefully and beautifully written. The only thing I would have wanted in this book was more! Go on, treat yourself this Christmas (or anytime) with this lusty, yet touching (no pun intended)tale. You KNOW you want to.

Sexually graphic situations not intended for those under a certain maturity level.

[Heather in FL · Rating 4 out of 5]

When a short freebie can bring tears to my eyes, I'd say that's a successful story. At first, I was confused about who was who. Not within the foursome that the story focused on, but the extra characters. I read Three for Me?, but didn't remember enough about it to recall the players. Or to know who Connie was to the four of them. But ultimately, when the focus was on the four main characters, the story picked up. It was sexy, sure, but I also liked the back-story of the foster brothers, the one who was no longer with them, Georgia's grandfather and how he influenced her career, and ultimately the surprising connection between the four (five?) of them. Besides the sexiness, it was a really sweet story, too.

Georgia Bale is ditching her Louisiana Christmas to spend it for the first time with her friends in the Colorado Rockies. Georgia has been extremely lonely since her grandpa passed away and needs a holiday with friends to perk her up. She never expected to be thrown into the arms of three sexy men. While snowbound with three brothers Georgia and the men heat up the Rockies but can their desire lead to forever?

Four for Christmas drips sex and raw emotion. I found this little multiple partner romp to be quite the sentimental treat. Christmas is a holiday heavy on emotion and when these four people come together they share plenty more than their bodies. R. G. Alexander weaves fiery sex and heartfelt feelings beautifully in Four for Christmas.

Wow! I'd never read any of Ms. Alexander's books before and got this one as a free read. It has been a long time since an author has made me cry with the sweetness of her story, but this one did. In fact she made me run the full gamut of emotions in this tale. Georgia is convinced she has crappy Christmas karma, but all the dominoes start falling into place for true love when she takes a road trip to Colorado and saves Flynn, one of three foster brothers trying to reconnect their family. This is hot menage a' quatre sex and it's well written, so if you're looking for sweet emotional Christmas romance, keep looking. But the compassion, love, and intimacy of this tale will have me searching out more of R. G. Alexander's books. I highly recommend this one.

I loved this book! I was looking for a nice and spicy holiday story and this more than delivered. What I did not expect was to have my heartstrings tugged and to out right cry in spots! I love stories that evoke a gamut of emotions and make me FEEL. I won't say anymore, because I don't want to give anything away. Suffice it to say this was the perfect holiday read and if she wrote another book about these characters, I would gladly buy and read it!

"Things will get better. You can do anything. You are never alone." a quote from the book.
Enjoyable steamy read that was an original and unique holiday erotica tale. The book has twists & turns that easily make it a page turner for at least this reader. The ending is amazing and will have thinking that fate does exist just wait amazing you in one form or fashion..
Reader notes:
The book has ménage (m/m/m/f) in it with HFN ending.

This was my first time ever reading R.G. Alexander and I have to say I really enjoyed this. Sometimes these type of books can be just about sex but this had much more. I was pleasantly surprised by this. I loved Georgia's journey and all her quirks! Then learning the story of Nick, Chris, Jimmy and Flynn was so heartwarming and heartbreaking all at the same time. I have found a new author that I can't wait to read more of.
