Sizzling Miami #5.8
A Home for the Holidays
When the organizers of a local charity ask the team at Doover to help build a Tiny Home community for those in need, Owen jumps at the chance. It’s a project he’s happy to be part of until he learns that the organizers have bankrupted the fund before the job is done. With the prospect of leaving the chosen families homeless—and not just for the holidays—Owen will do the one thing that scares him the most. Ask his loved ones for help. Though he’s never had the nerve before, there’s no doubt they’ll agree, and together, they will build homes filled with hope and the foundation for the future.
The culmination is every reason Owen began building houses in the first place and having his family's support only makes the job better. There’s only one thing missing, but Owen can’t think about that and still get the job done. Luckily, his family is working behind the scenes, and they coordinate with friends from afar to bring one final gift to the man who put it all on the line to deliver A Home for the Holidays.

About the author
Jessie G.
29 books261 followersLike many readers, the dream of being a writer has been with me a long time. After three decades of trying, I'd begun to doubt. Thanks to social media, I followed my favorite authors hoping to glean some words of wisdom as I pounded out half-formed ideas with alarming regularity. Two repetitive themes emerged: To be a great writer you must read a lot and your butt must be in the chair every day like it's a job. The more you write, the easier it will be to write and the better you will be at writing. I took that advice to heart and write every day. With three series in the works and counting, it's been amazing to have made this dream my reality.
I am a firm believer in marriage equality, love at first sight, power dynamics and happily ever after. I'm a lover of strong secondary characters and series filled with families, biological or chosen. All are themes you'll find throughout my books.

I could read about my favourite family of men forever. I love every one of them! Now I'm just left desperate for more as always xx

I love the Sizzling Miami guys and this was a fun way to meet up with them all. Although a lot of this book is about Owen's growing confidence, we get snippets of most of the other couples as well a few from the other series, Forgotten Soldier.
That said, the snippets weren't all about glimpses, they actually brought up issues that go unresolved for past couples and I found that frustrating because I'm not sure when we will get (if ever) any further information or resolution about these. Especially Liam and Chris and the issues that come up in their glimpse.
One area that was not up to standard and that was really disappointing was with the sheer number of missing or wrong words in this story. It's almost like nobody edited it at all.

✔ Letto! Un racconto piccino piccino per parlarci di una azione bellissima compiuta dal nostro timido e insicuro Owen. Adesso lui è felicemente sposato con Chris, va tutto bene nella sua vita e in quella dei suoi fratelli. Ha accettato di partecipare a un progetto meraviglioso. Costruire insieme ad altri costruttori 10 case iniziali per persone di bassa rendita o in difficoltà. Dopo 7 anni in cui avranno vissuto regolarmente in quella casa, la famiglia avrà diritto alla casa e al terreno. Solo che a metà progetto chi gestiva i soldi donati, scappa con il bottino.
Il nostro piccolo guerriero ci dimostra che Chris gli dona molto di più che solo amore. Ma la fede che suo marito deposita in lui, fa si che anche lui ci creda, così affronta quello che ancora rimane delle sue insicurezze e va alla ricerca di soluzioni e li trova più che abbastanza di investitori e mano d'opera nei suoi amici e amici degli amici. Un grande fronte instancabile per una buona causa. Ci sono tutti quanti, da Sizzling Miami a Ty, e i soldati di Jared.
5 capitoli e 4 POV diverse e preziose.
Un'altro piccolo pezzo di una serie bellissima.
So già cosa fare quando vincerò all'euromillions😍 grazie a Owen.
Per me è ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

When Jessie announced she was giving us a surprise holiday read with several characters from most of her books/series I was ecstatic! I love checking in with everyone!
As the synopsis states, Owen is the main character in the story. But where Owen goes, Chris goes and Billy and Liam are never far behind. I feel like this is Owen’s big boy book. He surprises a lot of us in this one (although we knew he had it in him) himself included. I’m not going to list everyone that appears but most of our favorites are here as well as a surprise couple I didn’t expect to see!
As always, we get a couple of big teases – for Billy and Liam and for the Forgotten Soldier series. And the Forgotten Soldier book is going to be painful it appears.
While it was great to see these characters, this book makes me want to go back and re-read ALL the books! I guess I know what I’ll be starting the new year with!

BEAUTIFUL HOLIDAY STORY
Owen and Chris are at the center of this grinch stole the holiday story. The beauty in this, is how EVERY character from the SIZZLING MIAMI stories, appear in this book. This story forced Owen to ask others for assistance and in so doing, put him in charge of something he thought he couldn't do. Everyone gets to watch him come into his own and become closer and more open to them all. I just loved that in this, there are some characters from previous stories that we get to catch up with. Thank You Jessie G, for giving us this gift that was everything a wonderful holiday story should be. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!!!

This was a great little glimpse into our favorite families/couples/throuples. The story also showed ways that Owen has changed since his first appearance in Red and Bull's story. I enjoy the evolution of everyone in these stories but there is something about Owen that just pulls at me.
Can't wait for the next one.

Family is outstanding and Owen shines!
I love this story because it showed how very competent Owen is despite his belief he isn’t. Owen has come very far in learning that his family, which includes everyone in this series, trust him and will back him up. Loved seeing all my favorite characters from this series, happy tears! Lovely Christmas story!

Sweet
A great holiday story. Some tears, a lot of hope. A lot of the guys from the series are here, along with a few crossovers and surprises. A nice catch up and setup for the continuing series.

I love hot mess Owen. I love this series. It was fun to see Owen step up, take charge and make good when a holiday project goes bad. it was fun seeing the other men from the stories step in and step up to make this all work out for Owen.

I closed this book with the hope that there will be MORE to come, but also with a driving need to read Spike and Garry's story, Ty and Chase's story and all of the others that this author has presented us with during this series... yeah, this could take a while! *grin*

That was so sweet. I love Owen's progress.
I was a little disappointed since I thought somehow Owen and Chris would get a home of their own in this one, but hey, giving back is better for the soul, right?

Nice catch up
Now I want more though lol - I think we need a book or novella for Billy and the surrogacy. I’m glad Jessie gave us at least a peak of all our favorite guys.

Magical, loving, and heartwarming. I love this series. Owen has grown up so much since we first met him and I think this novella was his "stepping out of Bull's shadow" book. We've watched him grow with his relationship with Chris but now we got to see him grow as a business owner who wears his heart on his sleeve and wants to do his best for everyone that he meets. I loved how he took charge of a plan and ran with it, he's fought hard for the respect that he now has from all of his friends and now new business associates. He was making sure the families had their homes, no matter what.
Liam and Billy, I adore those two guys too and that whole storyline just pulled at the heartstrings, again Jessie, way to tease us!
Pulling the other guys from all the series to help Owen in this book was fabulous, it brought the whole book together and was a special Christmas treat for all of us.

This is a perfect holiday read! My heart is just too full, I gobble up Jesse's words and they make me have all the feels. Read this novella, but be sure to do all the series catch up before, so worth it.
