Naughty or Nice

Rate this book
It was only supposed to be one night of bliss before my big meeting.

But, I never expected to run into my one-night stand the next morning as I pitched my proposal.
And I never expected his counter proposal...a fake engagement."
The holidays are not jolly this year. After losing my job, they’re downright depressing. It’s all good, I take that big lump of coal, and turn it into an opportunity to get my homemade soaps into Mountain Goat Resort. I just need to convince Graham Steele, the owner.
If I can nail this deal, everything will be merry and bright.
Things veer out of control when I end up nailing a sexy stranger at the resort the night before my big meeting. Before I know it, I’ve got a fake fiancé and twelve days to spend pretending with his family.

I’m definitely going on the naughty list this year, and Graham Steele put me there.

What a wonderful way to start this new year!
I loved Graham and Zoe's story, my only minus is that it has only 100pages and I didn't wanted to end reading it.
As always Logan Chance deliver us great stories and every single one is better than the other. Simply wonderful. Can't wait for his next book.

This is a short novella under 100 pages, that features a rich owner of a resort. A marketing executive is planning on pitching to sell her soaps at his resort. She doesn't realize the one night stand she has would be the owner of the resort.

He isn't ready to let her go just yet. With a snow storm that blocks the path to leave, he gets a little more time with her. He gets her to agree to be his fake fiancé for the holiday in order to appease his meddling mother, and agrees to then sell her soap in return.

Issues I had with this one: the one night stand has no foreplay, like at all. Calls it a sexplosion, skills left her speechless, and was the best sex she ever had, then next day has a sex strain. I mean come on, they only went at it once. Also please don't use your own name in your books. Its weird and egotistical.

That was such an amazing fun read! Like always Logan brings all the sexy and funny for a perfect Christmas treat!

I beyond loved these characters right from the beginning.
Zoe is your fun, I love everything about Christmas, happy elf. Then Graham is your sexy, moody and why is everyone smiling grinch.

Right from the start I was pulled in with the chemistry, humor ( which Logan is so amazing with in his stories)
and let’s not forget the hot sexiness. Perfect little tale of two strangers who meet and it was like love at first sight.
This is one of the best Christmas novellas I have read and
I completely recommend to all!

SPICY HOLIDAY ROMANCE

This story is a mixture of sweetness, humor, and loads of passionate spice. It also has a malicious twist to keep Zoe and Graham apart. Of course, there is a happy ending to this heart-melting holiday story.

Zoe is a beauty with a vivacious persona and she loves Christmas. Graham is gorgeous, a billionaire and is not particularly fond of Christmas. The chemistry between them is quite believable; loved them together.

FABULOUS story that fits well with the Christmas-romantic theme. Loved the picturesque and vivid scene descriptions. The humor is fabulous, the characters are admirable. Loved this story and found it to be quite entertaining.

This was a fun read! A quick, fast paced, holiday fake dating novella!

Zoe and Graham had an instant connection, very high chemistry and some cute flirty banter. Their interactions were so great right from the start.

I loved that these two were meant to be-they kept running into one another and the way their dynamic evolved each time was fantastic, and hot!

Once they entered into a fake relationship agreement everything was heightened and there were some things that were never ever fake between. The lines between business and pleasure are definitely blurred, and feelings start to accompany the physical attraction they share.

I enjoyed this one a lot and watching as they found their way to a real HEA!

Love it, Love it, Love it. The cover of this book is drop dead gorgeous, and the banter between Zoe and Graham is hot, but this book is so much more, it's like reading about our favourite author Logan, we have the ugly Christmas sweaters, faux fur blankets, Mountain "goat" resort, and I'm saying no more except there is hot steam rising and it's not from the shower lol. Another fab read from Logan. Can't wait for York's story. Get clicking readers a 5 star read all the way.

A super fun and sexy holiday surprise you don’t want to miss!

Graham’s not a fan of Christmas until he meets Zoe! Now all he wants to do is unwrap her. She needs something from him, so he’s got the perfect propsition that will benefit them both.

This story was unexpected and I absolutely loved it! Full of holiday cheer, some steamy sexy times, laugh out loud moments and a swoony grinch that will have you asking Santa for a Graham of your very own for Christmas!

What an enjoyable Christmas season read that can honestly be read year round. Zoe is so sweet and downy to earth, I love everything about her character. Graham is smart and caring even when he makes an offer that Zoe can’t refuse. This story is a page turner from the very beginning and filled with so much love that I didn’t want to put it down. I’m itching for York to have his own story in the future and towards the end there are some laugh out loud moments for sure. Highly recommend you grab your copy now and enjoy.

Good

This was a quick, sweet and sexy read and it is definitely an insta lust/love story. Both characters were enjoyable and were good together. There is a little drama but it is a nice read for Christmas!

The title and cover don’t do this book justice. This is a nice holiday romance. My only dislike was the instalust.

I usually avoid books with the fake fiancée trope, but I’ve been vibing Logan Chance (Author) and decided to give this book a try. The lack of sexual tension and the speed at which the lead characters hopped into bed were a deviation from Mr. Chance’s usual formula. Even still, I found the story enjoyable. Quick read.

I realize it's a short, but everything happens without preamble. Like the main characters, but I wish it were longer / more developed.

Logan Chance deliver a sweet, funny stranger to insta-love short story. The two leads know how to push each others buttons in all the right ways. The chemistry is off the walls, sexy & hot! Of course you have to have a villain & manipulating woman to destroy their budding romance.
Simply wonderful. Can't wait to read another one of his next book. I loved Graham and Zoe's story, I only wish they would have given an epilogue of the couples wedding. Or just make another chapter of the wedding along with a detour to a guest not invited but allowing Zoe to put Trudy in her place.

Graham Steele sexy, moody a Grinch in training. Doesn't understand why everyone loves Christmas. Then he bumps into Santa's elf. Who isn't at all that friendly to him but makes sure his niece isn't disappointed by the absence of Santa.

Zoe a marketing executive enthusiastic, smart, naturally sexy & getting ready to pitch her marketing plan with Goat Resorts to have her soaps marketed at their resort. Little does Zoe know she is about to have a one night stand with the owner of the resort. When they meet again later that night at the resort bar to drown out their stress'

Graham is a one night stand guy. But he doesn't want Zoe to go. The weather changes their paths for the better. Zoe cannot leave the resort due to road block from the storm. This gives Graham more time with her. The he wins a bet & gets Zoe to agree to be his fake fiancé for the holiday in order to appease his meddling mother. In return, a contract for her soaps to be distributed in his resort. What could go wrong?

Logan Chance once again gave us another of his brilliant masterpieces which BTW was a complete surprise to us and what a “Naughty Surprise” it was. The lead up to this surprise book Graham was hysterical we had so much fun trying to guess what he had in store for us with his (Christmas) Balls Lol.

Graham and Zoe are two opposites but my god do the compliment each other, the connection between these two was scorching hot ( yes We Get Logan’s steamy hot scenes which he’s so known for ) plus the laughter and comedy that had me laughing from page one and all through the book.

This book was such a breath of fresh air and it will put you in the Christmas spirit with a ton of laughs and steam along the way. Don’t wait go “run and grab “ this magnificent read now .

Thanks so much Logan for such a great story and surprise I really hope we get to see more of Graham and Zoe in the future, oh and York too lol.

I need more Graham and Zoe!

I just adored this sweet, sassy holiday novella! Graham is reserved, calculated and knows who he is and what he wants, well he thinks he does, he lives a great live with a well established business. Until Zoe comes blazing into his life and lights up his whole world, turning him upside down.Zoe is full of spark, energy, Christmas cheer and determined to fight to the death for what she wants for herself and her career. But what she is failing to realize is that she doesn’t have too. An impromptu business proposition, that would surly benefit the both of them, turns into something much more and changes both of their perspectives. But will they be up front and honest with each other before everything crumbles and falls apart?
This read was too short! LOL, I loved both of these characters and the story so much! Looking for a lighthearted, sassy holiday read? Look no further!

This was a quick holiday read that I really enjoyed and recommend! I was interested from the very first page and especially enjoyed how Graham and Zoe met, how their relationship continued, and as a reader, you could feel their attraction towards one another. Zoe was a woman I admired. She was smart, business savvy, respected herself, and even though she fell from Graham’s charming ways (after all, who wouldn’t?), she was no pushover and knows he isn’t truly a “Grinch.”

She sees more to him then meets the eye and agrees to be his fake fiancé, a troupe I really like. I love the banter and wit between the two of them, and their interactions with his family which included some very funny scenes! Logan writes with all the sizzle and build-up of an exceptional romance in the making and has you cheering for the couple the entire time. This isn’t my first book by Logan Chance and it won’t be my last.

Dirty clean novella

Rich guy and entrepreneurial woman? I’m in. A hot one night stand with a man who turns out to be a potential client AND we get a fake marriage, too. Yep, I’m into it.

I love how all the characters were either a bit much or just a touch of being grounded. It provided a fun balance. Let’s be real, we started off with a meet cute with Zoe was an elf and Graham a cool uncle.

I have to say the event with his mom’s planning felt... not right. Which ended up working for the story, but I didn’t like it.

What I did like, and I have found to enjoy with Logan’s work, is how he writes the hot scenes or rather that and the chemistry and build up around it. Just an FYI, some scenes do not mention safe sex. This is a thing I have found to dislike personally, but it doesn’t take away from the book.

I love reading Logan’s books and I was super excited to see he wrote a Christmas book!! I’ve read this type of book before and even reading Logan’s words I still fell hardcore in love with the idea!

From their first meeting I could tell something different about Graham and Zoe! I loved Zoe and her soaps... she has so much about her that gets out on the line and she just went for it!! Graham was a bit manipulative and using his sexiness but Zoe got some benefits.

Even though I have read this storyline before Logan added some crazy twists, such as a crazy mother but I really enjoyed watching her and Trudy do their thing! I didn’t like them much but it added to the story! I was sad to see it end but what a great story to not only turn you on but to put you in a bit of Christmas spirit!

It’s my vacation and I’m reading Graham Steele’s holiday novella. The man is 🔥🔥🔥!!! And Zoe is his perfect match.

He’s all business and confidence. She’s there to win him over for her soap business. Only last night he discovered how good those soaps are for her skin. 😉Imagine pitching your business plan to the man who knows all about your skin!! 😊

Well, he’s got a plan and she’s along for the ride. Fake fiancée equals business contract. And when things spiral out of control?! Passion 🔥🔥🔥!!! Mother, surprises!!! (No spoilers here!). To say things go awry would be putting it simply.

Graham is a man who goes after what he wants. In business, and now Zoe is who he wants. Go Graham!!!

A great holiday novella.

Graham is the story about, you’re right Graham and Zoe. Zoe lost her job, but hoping to make her dreams come true. She makes handmade soaps and hoping to get them into Mountain Goat Resorts. When she gets to the resort she meets a man, sparks fly and they have a one night stand or she thought. Graham is the owner of the resort, but he has another proposal for Zoe, and Zoe is not prepared for what he wants.

This was a sweet holiday story with a whole lot of naughty and spice. Zoe is a sweet woman just trying to make her dreams come true. She selflessness, a feisty fun gal. Graham is a confident guy, and goes after what he wants, The two of them together is off the chains hot, and with any Logan Chance book you will have a lot of funny moments. Loved the classic movie references, by the way. For a quick fun sexy holiday treat be sure to read this one, because I don’t think you will be able to look at Christmas the same way ever again.

Should Have Been Better

This story started out so good, but it seems like the writer lost interest before the end and then just threw a bunch of half baked roadblocks and some badly thought out characters at it and then tacked on a short sort of happy ending onto it.
The mother is a snob and not redeemed at all by her sudden wish to have them hitched before the weekend is out. The Trudy character needed to get her come-uppance and no time given to explain from the so called hero who let our heroine just leave. Then it's all tied in a messy bow a month later but no real conclusion. It just ends with a Maybe they'll date??? Have read other from this author so had expected better
