A decision to go wild this year. An attempt to forget the pain.


Note: This is an erotic novella that ends on HFN (Happy For Now) . Strong language and adult situations are contained in this story.

Finding out that her dead husband had a mistress drove home the fact that they were not the happy couple Savannha a/k/a Souvenir thought they were. What made it worse was that he was seeing the other woman before they even met.
If her husband could screw a stripper named Sugar Plum for 15 years, she could screw an escort for Christmas. It was a fair trade, no?

But sometimes things can go sexily wrong - or right. Getting a bit tipsy before your "date" might mess with your memory a little, and might just make you forget the hotel room number.

About the author

C.D. Samuda

65 books63 followers
Carolee is a passionate writer whose life revolves around creating a world she can revert to when life gets in the way.

She always knew she would be a writer. Her teachers and the school librarian noticed her knack for story telling from an early age. With their encouragement, she continued to allow her imagination to come to life.

She spent most of her adult life dreaming of writing her own novels while working a 9 to 5 job. With determination, she quit her job and now concentrates on writing full time.

Writing is her passion and without it she feels incomplete. Carolee writes from her heart, from her soul.

In addition to writing, there are absolutely four things she cannot live without; chocolate, good ice-cream, cheesecake, and coffee.

This was a quick read. It is about a lady who finds out that her deceased husband cheated on her the entire time they were together. She then decides to treat herself to an escort service for Christmas. She messes up and goes to the wrong room where she meets ups with someone else and everything clicks between them. Once she leaves him and gets home, she then realizes she met with the wrong man. She meets up with him and they decide to continue their relationship. Overall it was not a bad book. A very easy, quick read.

This well-written book is about recovering your self-worth after finding out her husband had cheated on her their whole relationship with a a stripper. She decides to have a wild fling of her own and mistakenly goes to wrong hotel room and connects with someone else. Afterwards these characters decide to continue the relationship and I would love another book to see where this goes. As a side note, what a Sh**ty thing to find out when your husband dies, that he was having an affair and dies with her. A very emotionally healing story for this female character

This is my first time reading this author, this is a quick enjoyable read some slightly steamy scenes. After finding out that her deceased husband had been having a long-term affair a woman decides to stop mourning and to try something different. Wrongs rooms, lack of conversation results in a relationship that was unplanned but gives the two main characters an HFN. It’s a well written plot that is easy to read in one sitting. The characters are likable and relatable as is their dialogue. Overall a fun short book to read.

Souvenir was the best book and I really enjoyed it. The storyline keep me interested throughout the hold book and it was funnier they met. She really didn't care because she found love and get that getting from her husband. The rating I gave the book keep me interested and will tell my friends about how great the book was and I will be reading again nothing about the storyline I didn't like

And the Two lover keep me interested throughout the whole book. The author is a good writer and she knows how to keep you interested it. The book was good reading material and my friends are going to enjoy reading ir

Read this book as a ARC and I must say that Savannah was something else. She recently discovered that her late husband had been cheating on her through out their marriage and before he even met her with a stripper. She decided to get revenge on him even though he was dead by sleeping with a escort that she found on a website. When she went to the hotel she had a little to much to drink and ended up in the wrong room where she met the most amazing man (he realized that she was in the wrong room) but indulge her anyway. You’ll have to read the book to see how.

What a fascinating and page melting story. Way to go Savannah!! Her boldness is inspiring, he is very manly, practical and very in tune to her needs. What a great Christmas gift! Fun read, I'm happy for Savannah because she definitely needed to move on from grief into some more exciting ways to live her life and both of them are happy for now.

Determined to make this Christmas different, Savannah decides to cheat on her dead husband with an escort. She has spent the last 3 years in mourning only to find that he had a secret. To get even she arranges a night with an escort but things don’t go as planned.

A quick romantic tale that leaves you believing in the holiday spirit. Loved it.

Not my cup of tea

I prefer stories that are more developed. Short stories are fine if that is what one likes. I rather read stories where there is courtship before the deed is done. This is not what happens in this short story. Souvenir's revenge on her dead husband just did not fly with me. After finding out that Mr. Christmas was not whom she expected, there is the potential of developing a relationship in a nice story. It just left me hanging, happy for now.

Orgasmic revenge

There will be no closure for Savannah. He died of his own accord driving drunk. The mourning his death became anger when she discovered she wasn't his true love. Nothing like finding out that you were not who he wanted and loved but needed for his image.
She had ment to use a service but stumbled into a man that would satisfy her in ways her deceased husband did not. A quick erotic read with strangers becoming more.

This was an enjoyable quick read. The author did a great job of providing background data for the characters. It was just enough background story to make the story believable and realistic. There was definitely chemistry, and tender moments. Looking forward to reading additional works by this author

Loved the book it was great, the story was well written and the characters are interesting. She loved her husband but did not know, her husband did not love her as much, considering he had a mistress for as long as she was married to her husband.
Thank you for allowing me to review your book.

Brilliant love story, great story line. A meeting by mistake leads to so much more. When Savannah finds out, she wanted to be angry but Marcello convinced her that this is fate. It's the beginning of something beautiful. Five stars from me

A great book!

This is a new author to me and I like her work. Not a fan of cliffhangers but her style has me wanting to see what is coming next. There was a lot of spice and the storyline was a great read. I recommend it you will not be disappointed.
