Rate this book

When a holiday-loving ghost tries to rock around the Christmas tree with a Grinchy guest, will they both wind up on the “naughty” list?

Even though Zach Roberts died in an incident involving a string of lights and an inflatable Santa, he’s determined to deck the halls in a big way. But being trapped in a rental cabin with the Ghost of Christmas Overkill isn’t on Jessica Newton’s bah-humbug agenda.

Together they discover it’s nice to be naughty, but can he help her find her holiday spirit?

Funny and sexy.

I lost count of how many times this short story made me smile and laugh out loud. To be honest, this book was ridiculous, but somehow very amusing and imaginative. I think the story did feel a tad bit rushed, but the sex scenes were great, absolutely made up for some minor issues I had with the plot. Two main characters were likable and the chemistry between them was undeniably sizzling.

All in all, this was a quick, sexy, hilarious, and pleasant read.

A cute novella. A fast Christmas read. A ghost and a writer.... and HEA.

3 stars. Rounded up for humor.

I'm not a fan of ghost stories, and I'm not even certain that I like the ending (I couldn't suspend my disbelief that far. )

That said, the reading was a pleasure and the humor was delightful. Glad I read it for the reading of this short offering from a favorite author, despite the actual (ghost) story.

Short novella. A ghost and a human affair on the Christmas season. I don't believe in magic, that sort of stuff, but at least it had a happy ending.

Hilarious and HOT!

I was ROFLMAO all through this sweet, naughty and bone-deep satisfying holiday tale of a burned out female Scrooge, a very horny ghost, and the Christmas Decorations from Hell ...
