Evie x Gabriel

Short, sweet, gingerbready, and Christmassy. What's not to like? Evie came home to take care of business, but Gabriel happened.

Gingerbread jubilee

Aunt Georgia was a fiesty one. She was going to give Eve a run for her money. This one was a short, steamy holiday book. Gabriel knew Eve was special after they literally ran into each other.

A great holiday short...

In typical Te Russ fashion, she once again gives us a story that leaves you wanting more. The story was a nice introduction to Eve and Gabriel, characters I look forward to catching up with again in the Te Russ universe.

Sweet Holiday Read

Eve returns to her hometown for work and meets a new love interest. This was s sweet love story between Eve and Gabriel. They bump into each other and are instantly attracted to one another, as luck would have it he's the nephew of the lady she's trying to do business with. A business deal, a annual holiday jubilee puts them together again an d.c sparks fly. Their chemistry and sexual attraction seems to leap off the pages. Another smoothly told hot and sexy love story from Te' Russ, great ending to 2018 and I can't wait to see what great stories you have in store for us in 2019.

This was a cute book that put me in mind of a movie that I saw. It was fast paced and the way in which Eve and Gabriel came to be was not typical but you could see where it was going to go. I knew this was a novella but there were some things that were brought up in the book that I would have liked to read more on but overall I enjoyed the book. I just wanted a little more information on those situations. It didn't really give Christmas vibes to me but more a book that take place around Christmas time which is also fine for a holiday read.

I really enjoyed this story! After Evangeline & Gabriel bumped into each other in the coffee shop I knew I would enjoy this short story! Aunt Georgia & Eve's parents were really cute too. I loved Gabriel & Eve's competitiveness at the Gingerbread Jubilee. Richard really missed out on a sweet treat and Anna was a straight up hater and deserved that beat down!

Sweet & Cozy

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This has all the makings of a cozy Christmas Hallmark movie. To put it simply, it was short and sweet — and it definitely has me craving gingerbread cookies now. It felt like a warm, cozy read that’s just right for the holidays. I could absolutely see this being adapted into a Hallmark movie. The romance was sweet and fast-paced. I recommend!

This was super cute, gave me black hallmark and I absolutely love that type of book vibe.

I think Eve & Gabriel was super cute as well. I love they were able to bond quickly.

Everything happened fast & smoothly. I just wish it could’ve been longer. With more chapters and a little more drama surrounding the business. lol

But other than that it was a good read

Sweet holiday read!

I adored Gabriel and Eve. Perfect story for the holiday season. The back story for Eve returning home, and how they connected was very fitting. I'll be reading more from this author. This was my first reading of her work.

A pleasant read of Eve trying to save Georgia's Gingerbread company and at the same time grabs a lil Christmas cheer in the form of Gabriel Myers.
A short tease that's sure to make you want more of Gabriel and Eve!

Good read

Good read, I enjoyed the characters and storyline. This was a short holiday story. Gabriel and Eve had a cute small town holiday romance, reminiscent of a hallmark movie. I recommend this book.

This was such a cute holiday short that I truly enjoyed. Eve and Gabriel’s immediate connection pulled me into their story from page one. I hope with time their relationship will be made official and they’ll live happily ever after.

A cute holiday read about a lady giving a proposition at work to secure a company. Brings her back to her old town. Not only does she have to seal the deal she’s also crushing on a local. Mild spice, but still nice. No quotes or highlights.
