Hot Scots #5

Hot Scot Christmas

Rate this book
I used to think that true love was like Santa Claus.
As in, make believe.
That stockings were for peeling off.
Not filling up.
And that stuffing . . . Well, I’m sure you see where I’m going with that.
But this Christmas everything’s changing.
We’re still getting naughty under the mistletoe.
Bells are still being jingled a-plenty.
And there’s heaps of the white stuff around.
But this Christmas we’re finding the best gifts aren’t pulled from Santa’s sack.
Or found under the tree.
Because the best gift of all is family.

Warm up this holiday season with Mac, Ella, and the rest of the Hot Scots crew, as they celebrate all things family!

Hot Scot Christmas is definitely one HAWT x-mas treat. It brings together all the hot Scots men, their beautiful mates and loved ones for a delightful Christmas story. Each couple - Fin and Rory, Dylan and Ivy, Kit and Bea, and Mac and Ella - have their own story told from each’s Scot’s couple’s POV. It was fantastic to go back and visit with those sexy Scotsmen’s with their yummy accents and their fab families—and to get updates on how each of the families are doing . This was a beautiful story and how awesome family is, for everything.

My Rating: 4.5 stars *****

Hot Scot Christmas by Donna Alam a Christmas present of a five star read. This is a novella for the Hot Scot series and yummy, yummy yummy. you don't just get one hot scot in this story but four of them!! I know we also get the women, but its easy to like them just as much. There is drama and surprise a plenty and some cameos that will make you chuckle. Make sure you set aside a little time to read this novella as I guarantee once you pick it up it wont be put down.

Hot Scot Christmas is hot indeed! It brings together all the hot Scots and their loved ones for a sweet and sexy holiday tale.



Mac and Ella are ready for their baby daughter to be born. Louis is in the mix, making things fun. His parents are feeling the pinch of the ban on sex her doctor's instated. But, Ella still finds ways to satisfy her hot Scot!



Natasha and June are on their way down to Mac's place for Christmas and June is making Natasha laugh the whole drive down. I love June! She's my favorite :)



Rory and Fin too are feeling the affects of new parenthood, but they too get some quality sexy time in before Niall opens his eyes and starts screaming to be fed.



Dylan has new, really hot ways of trying to convince Ivy, his Edera, to have "a houseful of kids." She's a good negotiator normally, but she's no match for Dylan's sexy ways.



Bea is trying to figure out if Kit needs, wants, Ethan back in their bed so she can watch while he gets the full experience of Ethan's mouth. But, Kit's mind is only on his Bea, his hot doctor, because while he may "like sex, period. But you. You, I love." And Kit finds a really steamy way of finally convincing her that it's Bea he wants, needs and loves.



But, it's Mac who will steal the show on Christmas when his whole family is gathered around. He's got a happy surprise question for her, a question she's been wanting him to ask again for awhile. But, all that will be overshadowed when their little bundle of joy makes her appearance sooner than had been expected.

If you like your Scots hot, and your Christmas joy sweet, filled with babies and kids and lots of love and joy, put Hot Scot Christmas on your TBR list. It's the perfect reunion for the whole Scots gang!

I received an ARC for an honest review.

I read this book as part of an arc program. This is a quick read that catches up with everyone from this series and their get together at Christmas. Each chapter tells what they are each doing and how they are adjusting to the changes in their lives. Mac and Ella are awaiting the birth of their baby and enjoying Louis while finding it hard to follow the doctor's rule of no sex. Natasha and June are driving to Mac's place and are spending some quality time together. Rory and Fin are trying to find a little adult time without being interrupted by Niall who seems to know when his parents are alone. Dylan and Ivy are getting closer and are more in love than ever and Dylan is trying to convince Ivy to have a houseful of children, but Ivy wants only a couple more. Bea and Kit are dealing with Bea's thought that Kit needs more than she can give him. Kit finds a way to convince her she is his everything. When everyone gathers at Mac and Ella's, Mac has a plan, but it goes awry and things get a little hectic. This was a good catch up with the group, but I really recommend reading all of the series first. Good book in a great series.

A voyeuristic delight!

Author Donna Alam takes us on a heartfelt journey just right for a cold, winter's night.... blazing hot with just a touch of nostalgia thrown in for good measure. We get to be the fly on the wall, watching our favorite characters from her previous books as they embark on connecting with their friends, family and loved ones for the holidays. On the eve of Christmas Eve, we get to witness the love and passion that is obviously burning bright within each couple. Naughtiness abounds! The true joy though, lies in the fact that we the reader are able to reconnect with characters that we adored previously and are able to catch up with the current happenings in their lives. This is a heartwarming treat for any fan of Donna Alam's books! I adored every word and felt like taking the time to read this book was the perfect Christmas gift to myself. I definitely recommend buying this book today!

::..Reviewed for Red's Midnight Readers..::

I was very kindly given an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I have given it 5 stars.

It's great to be back with these lovable, quirky characters once more, celebrating the festive season on true Hot Scots fashion.
This is a short and sexy festive read that not only features one but all of our favourite characters from the series. It's equal parts sexy and festive cheer and perfect for fans of the Hot Scots series.

Donna did not disappoint in the seamless delivery of Hot Scots Christmas with lots of humor, wit and scorching sex scenes as we catch up with the gang once as they enter the next stages of their lives together and how they cope with that and the added pressure of the upcoming festivities.

This is a fun, sexy novella perfect for the holidays.

This is my favorite kind of family Christmas! The gang's all here, gathering for a very special holiday at Mac and Ella's. Each couple - Fin and Rory, Dylan and Ivy, Kit and Bea, and of course Mac and Ella - has their own story told from the hot Scot's POV. It's all about family, and boy is it ever HOT! The intensity of the early stages of a romance doesn't lessen with the growth of their families, but the logistics definitely add a new element. Each couple is in a different stage of adding to their family (or not) and how that impacts their relationship is explored with passion, humor, and authenticity. This is the "real life" side of the HEA, beautifully arranged into the best of holiday gifts. It's an absolute joy to read. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Hot Scot Christmas is the 5th entry in Donna Alam's "Hot Scots" series. It is a direct follow up to Single Daddy Scot, really more of an epilogue to that story than its own story. It also has a chapter focusing on each couple from the other books in the "Hot Scots" series, giving fans of the series a chance to catch up on where they all are in their lives at this point.

This book is not meant to be read as a stand-alone, but to be read after Single Daddy Scot.

I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book.

NOTE: I enjoyed it so much that I also ended up purchasing a copy (AMAZON). In the copy I purchased, the first 2 books of the "Hot Scots" series were also included as a bonus.

So, I fully admit that normally I’m not a huge novella fan. I prefer my reads, ehem, longer and girthier. That being said I absolutely *LOVED* Hot Scots Christmas. It has all that you’ve come to love from the previous Hot Scots books: sexy Scotsmen with lovely accents, feisty women and plenty of sexytimes. This was like a wonderful visit to catch up with old friends and I will say, you absolutely have to have read the previous books before reading this. If that’s something you haven’t done yet, I suggest you remedy that ASAP (or tout de suite as Louis and Ella would say).

This book brings all the scots together for the holidays. Ella and Mac are awaiting the birth of their baby. Ella wants to be creative when pleasing her man since she's on bed rest. Finn and Rory are dealing with being parents and getting some adult time in before Niall starts screaming for one of them. This story also includes Dylan, Ivy, Bea, Kit , Mac, June, Natasha and Ethan as everyone is coming to gather for a family holiday. This was a great book that gave us a little bit of all the alpha scots we know and love. If you haven't read the others I would definitely do that yoou won't regret reading any of the books in this series.

🔥💜😜What a hot and hilarious way to light up the🎄 Christmas holiday! As the couples and other close family from Alam's previous "Scot" books get ready for a reunion by the Christmas tree, each couple gets their own mini (and steamy!) interlude. But, to me, little Louis, Mac's son, is the best thing in the story! C-u-t-e and f-u-n-n-y! Granny June is also a real kick!

I have not read the novels that introduced these couples but I will, now that I have a taste for the humor Alam can inject into her work to complement the romance and heat.

I received a complimentary advance copy of this book; this is my voluntary and honest review.

Oh what a beautiful story to catch up with everyone before Christmas.
I loved reading about Mac and Ella and cute little Louis. Having felt huge carrying my first son, I know how Ella feels. Mac is so caring I wanted to hug him myself. Reading about the rest of the “gang” made me laugh so much, especially at June, such a character.
The trials and tribulations of parents to be, new parents ( trying to get private sexy moments together) younger and older generations all brought together make a very interesting Christmas. A brilliant read, loved it all.
Merry Christmas everyone. X

What a perfect gift for Christmas catching up on all the couples from Donna Alam’s Hot Scot books. There’s Mac & Ella, Rory & Fin, Dylan & Ivy and last but not least Kit & Bea. Can’t forget June & Nat to round off this Christmas Eve Eve, Christmas Eve & Christmas Day following all these couples and glimpsing into their HEA further in the future.
A read full of laughs to leave you smiling, love to leave you with a warm heart & steamy scenes to tingle your toes & melt your kindle.

A Guid Christmas For All

This is a lovely addition to illustrate the lives of these wonderful characters of Donna Alam's. She blends a beautiful collection of Christmas scenarios with panache.
Aspects of this wonderful Clan, cleverly woven with descriptions that are so witty, colourful & descriptive that 'needs must' be read again. Some chuckles, some serious aspects of relationships, some full blown guffaws, wiping away of mirth induced tears and plenty of 'feels'.
Another Donna Alan Winner ! So Thoroughly recommended !

Only this family and their friends could have a Christmas that looks like this. One part love, one part total chaos, and at least a dozen parts sexy steam. I adored this opportunity to catch up with all these couples and see how family life is treating them. I don’t think I’ll ever get enough of this quirky group, and I hope the series continues for a long time to come.

I am voluntarily reviewing an Advanced Reader Copy of this book that I received for free.

Hot Scots Christmas is a great holiday novella starring all of Donna Alam's couples getting together for Christmas. Ms. Alam continues to draw us into the character's lives and includes enough spice to melt even the coldest readers devices. A nice follow-up to the Hot Scot series to keep you wanting to see who will get their Hot Scot dreams realized next.

Another Extra Hot Scot Read

I love a great holiday treat and Hot Scot Christmas is just that! All the Hot Scots come together at Mac and Ella's for a special celebration. Though each couple is at different stages in their growing families the Scots definitely deep things hot. I loved how each couple dealt with totally relatable real life issues. I enjoyed catching up with my favorite Scotsmen in this touching yet humorous holiday read.

Review of Hot Scot Christmas

This book pulls all the main characters of the other 4 books and tells a follow up story for a Christmas reunion. The book is wonderfully written, hot and steamy as well as full of romance and lovae. Each couple gets a chapter with a HEA ending. I couldn't put it down. If you love handsome sexy Scotsmen and beautiful sassy heroines, you will love this book .

Short and sweet! This is the third book ( One Hot Scot, Two Wrongs), that I read in this series. So it was sort of getting to know the other characters that appeared in previous books. Mac and Ella are expecting their first child along with a houseful of relatives for Christmas Eve. Lots of laughter in this one!
