Apishipa Creek Chronicles #6.5
An Old Fashioned Christmas in Apishipa Creek
In the snow covered mountains of Colorado, a town sits, embracing those who come with a love and friendship that makes it a very special place. It's Christmastime, and for the first holiday in years, a group of friends is able to spend it together.
Binx is cooking old timey Christmas favorites, twinkle lights are forbidden and replaced with candles, while garlands of cranberries and popcorn decorate the house. Everything is set for a family gathering that would be remembered throughout the new year.
Making the presents they're sharing with each other exudes the true meaning of the season, showing the love they have for one another, but also three plot payback for the spoiling of Hope by Lonnie.
Mystery surrounds one couple, however. When the others suspect they may be splitting up, the old division between subs and doms threaten to take away the joy of the celebration. Worry sits heavily on all of them as they wait to hear bad news. Will they get it, or will the surprise be something they never suspected.
Come back to Apishipa Creek. Come share Christmas with the men you love and the children that captured our hearts. Come home.

About the author
Rain Carrington
99 books235 followersI love writing, it's been my dream for many years, and in October of 2013, when my first book went live on Amazon, that dream came true.
Writing love stories that are centered on flawed but lovable characters is my passion. Finding love between people isn't easy, nor should it be. Even in a book, there have to be obstacles for the story to feel real.
I am a mother of three amazing people, and three adorable fur babies. I live in Colorado but love many other places besides my home. One state in particular is New Mexico, the state where I was born has always held a place in my heart.
People and places make my stories what they are. Each character I've written is a part of me in some way. Each place I write is as well. Adventures come in many ways, and each of my stories has taken me on an adventure that I treasure.
Come with me on my adventures and fall in love with my characters, as I have. I promise, you will love the ride.

Brilliant!
This has always been my favorite of Rain's series and she did not disappoint at all! It is Christmas time in Apishipa and the friends are all gathering at Pappy's, Nathan and Binxie's for an old fashioned Christmas. Homemade presents and traditional Christmas foods. Everyone is so excited to be back together.
Brandon and Sidney though are keeping a secret and it's driving the friends crazy with worry trying to figure out what it is. When all is said and done though, there are smiles and joyous cheer all the way around.
Travis and Lonnie are contemplating a huge decision as well. Just the reminder they all needed that Apishipa is home for all of them near and far.
I Loved this story and it is the Cherry on top of this amazing series!!

Perfect
Sexy sweet Xmas fun. Fun and touching BDSM played second fiddle in this one. Relationships focused on love and family not do much the sex. Loved but hope the next story gets a little more hot and heavy love the idea of Hunter coming to the creek!

Sweet sweet sweet Christmas in Apishipa Creek.
So nice to meet all the gang again. Only thing you could want for was a bit more naughty stuff. But then there was kids there so I guess not practical.

I will admit I didn't read the series going into this story. I'm fairly sure I got this at some time when it was free and just now read it. It is a really cute story about a group of men that are a "chosen" family getting together for the holiday. They share so much love and history as a group. They seem very diverse. It shows how these men are growing and changing as they age. They seem to revolve around Pappy who is a spiritual man and very caring. I would say this is a nice "visit" with these couples if you have read the series. If not it still can be read though I believe I lost a lot of the subtext because I haven't read the series.
