Here we have book 12 of The Parker's 12 Days of Christmas by Ali Parker, Blythe Reid, Weston Parker and Zoey Reid. I have now read them all and I can honestly say that I do not have a favourite simply because they are all so great and each has it's own special place within this Christmas Series but I have loved them all. I think that these four authors have penned one of the most special Christmas Series that I have ever read. I've laughed, cried, smiles, swooned and had to turn on the fan for every book! Their writing styles are so wonderfully blended together and have flowed so well that they capture your imagination at page 1 and keep you riveted to the book right to the very end. They are fast paced with essential details that make the characters seem to 'leap' off the pages as they are so life like and relatable. The witty dialogue helps to make the stories come alive and I felt compelled to carry on to find out if there was going to be a HEA. In this book we meet twins Tyler and his sister Rebecca who have inherited their dad's family event business which Rebecca loves. Tyler, however, has inherited their mum's love of the outdoors and he does his best to keep this a secret. He volunteers to get a Christmas tree for them and he ends up at Mattie's Christmas Tree business on the family farm which her grandpa started. Times are hard for her and she is desperately trying to keep the business afloat and the farm staying in the family. When Tyler and Mattie meet they are both struck by cupid's arrow and are in instant lust which neither had experienced before. Mattie has some trust issues and doesn't know whether she can trust Tyler when he proposes a possible solution to keeping her business. Is Tyler for real and has genuine feelings for her or is he just looking for a one night stand. Only time will tell. I loved the dialogue between the two of them. It was fun to read these two very likeable people fall in love and the chemistry between them was like fireworks going off on Halloween. With terrific friends to assist in their love story and they emotions for one another deepening as time passes, let's hope all goes to plan and they get their HEA. Whilst I loved Tyler and Mattie were obviously so great for each other, her friends were also important in this tale to make it all that more special. It's a fun read with fabulous characters and a brilliant ending. This can be read as a standalone or as part of the series. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and hope that you will try it too. Enjoy! I got this with KU DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED
A great ending to the Twelve Days of Christmas, but I hate to see the end. Tyler lives in New York City helping his twin sister run the family event planning business. Where Rebecca inherited their father's business scenes he inherited their mother's gypsy wondering and trying to find his purpose. When Tyler meets Mattie at her tree farm things just click for him and he feels st home. Mattie is struggling to keep her home and looking for a Christmas miracle. With the help from her sneaky best friends she has a chance to let go and find a bit of happiness. When Tyler offers her an opportunity to keep her home it sounds familiar and too good to be true. Can Tyler prove to her that he truly cares for her and wants to help or will her doubts keep her from getting that miracle?? Can Tyler really find his true calling or will he stay with his family business where he's not truly happy?? This is a great story to give you faith that miracles do happen with a little steam!!! Thank you to the Parker Clan for twelve stories that will lift you spirits and give you hope.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book Thank You Ali & Weston
A quick sweet steamy read about a man, Tyler, who is trying to find his place in the world and out from his twin sister’s shadow and Mattie, a woman who owns a home and Christmas tree business out in the country. When they meet the sparks and attraction are there and with a little help from her best friend’s they end up spending time together and in the end fall for each other. A great read and I’m sad to see that this is the last of the 12 days of Christmas but the best was saved for last in my opinion. There was no drama, no exes, no miscommunication, no misunderstandings, they were open, honest and transparent with each other. A perfect read right to curl up with when you need a smile and a HEA for everyone all around. *I voluntarily read an advanced copy and expressed my honest opinion*
What a wonderful way to close the Parker’s 12 days of Christmas. This is such a sweet emotional story packed with all the joy and magic of the holiday season. I adored Tyler. He’s been living his family’s dreams rather than his own for so long. (I spent most of the book wanting to beat his twin sister over the head with the blasted thirty-foot tree she’s so obsessed about.) Mattie’s such a sweetheart. She’s fighting so hard to keep the farm that’s her last link to her grandparents. And she’s got some of the best, and sneakiest, friends imaginable. The “awe” factor is strong in this book, and the heat level will leave you gasping for breath. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book.
Twins, Tyler and Rebecca, run an event planning business, and when Rebecca asks Tyler to go find a Christmas tree he heads to a local tree farm run by a woman named Mattie. Mattie is struggling to keep her business, and home, and at this rate is hoping for a Christmas miracle. When the pair meet, the chemistry between the pair is undeniable, and with a little help from some friends, the pair end up spending some time alone together. As the pair get to talking, Tyler offers Mattie a possible way to keep her farm. Can Mattie trust that Tyler’s intentions are real? Or will her past keep her from believing in a future with Tyler? I voluntarily read and reviewed a copy of this book.
Tyler y Mattie se conocen cuando él está buscando un gran árbol para el negocio que tiene con su hermana gemela pero no pueden negar que cuando se conocen surgen chispas, con el pasar de los días se dan cuenta que quiere algo más pero él vive en Nueva York y ella tiene problemas del pasado, sin embargo, son capaces de afrontar todo eso y darle vida a su bonita historia de amor con un poco de ayuda de amigos de ella.
Fue una historia agradable de leer y sin duda muy bonita, me gustó para darle cierre a esta serie. Aunque daban ganas de irme al final de la historia para saber cómo terminaban juntos me gustó todo lo que tuvieron que pasar para poder animarse a estar juntos.

Before, during and after reading I kept asking myself “why only 12?”. What a great way to end the 12 sexy days of Christmas series. All of these stories were the perfect lengths and the variety of plot lines was amazing. My favorite part about this book is the honesty and communication between all of the characters. It’s refreshing from the insecure, secret keeping, avoid-at-all-cost characters in most romance books. Just like the previous 11 books, this is sexy and sweet! I received this book for a voluntary, completely honest and non incentivized review.
This is the twelfth book in this Christmas series, and it was a wonderful last book to end the series. Tyler desperately needs a big tree for his event center, and Mattie, who owns a tree farm, is struggling to keep it running. Their meeting was certainly serendipitous, but it was no less engaging and heartwarming. They both had a special way of understanding each other, and their connection got them through this trying Christmas season. I loved this series, with each story being so different and unique!
Christmas trees and nudge in the right direction for Mattie and Tyler is what this sweet and sexy could not have been a better 12th day of Christmas Novella was all about!

A sweet Christmas story about two people who need saving. Mattie and Tyler are wonderful together and their story will warm your heart. Amazing characters, storyline and chemistry. I voluntarily received this book to review for my honest opinion.
Loved the setting - a Christmas tree farm and a big old country house - main characters in this story too. A city slicker, who is at home outdoors and a sweet woman trying to keep the family farm .... a match made for Christmas. I fell in love with this farm and the characters! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awe. What a sweet ending to the great Christmas novellas. A chance meeting saves them both for different reasons. And a little "help" from friends. Mattie and Tyler are sweet. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book
This is what Christmas stories will always feel like for me - miracles/wishes coming true! When two people finally finding what they want during the most magical season, definitely a sweet read!
