What do you think?


Rocky Christmas
She’s the only thing he wants for Christmas, but she’s the senator’s daughter and off limits.
Rocky
I'm supposed to be preparing for my upcoming MMA fight, but then I see her, and all bets are off. She's the prettiest little thing I've ever seen, and I'll die if I don't find out who she is.
Holly
No one has ever approached me the way the big, muscled-up guy in the bar does. I know my father won't approve. I know what's expected of me, but Rocky is looking at me like I'm his salvation, and would it be so bad to have something just for me? This Christmas I'm going to treat myself. It'll be our little secret. I'm just going to get to know him. That's all.
That's what I tell myself anyway.

Just in time for the holidays! I loved this quick steamy holiday read.

Who doesn't love a big bearded teddy bear ready to protect you at all costs?
Rocky knew the first time he saw Holly, he had to have her, and nothing would stand in his way.
It was time for Holly to date someone other than her father's handpicked boys, and she knew Rocky was the one for her but would her father approve?

Rocky is a big teddybear of a guy, who happens to be an MMA fighter. Holly is the Senator’s daughter and is trying to have fun despite her controlling father. They meet in a bar and have chemistry. Holly is supposed to date only wealthy and socially connected guys her father hand picks, needless to say Rocky does not fit that bill. Now they fight to stay together and have a great time doing it. This is an enjoyable short story, with some hot moments. Interesting storyline and likeable characters.

MMA champion Rocky spots Holly in a little pub and is immediately taken by the beauty. Holly sees the giant man staring at her and isn't frightened she's taken with the gentle giant. Rocky is very determined to claim Holly as his and she's more than willing to leave home. Together they start a life that gives her the love she's been missing.

Fabulous read
Rocky didn't think he could feel what he felt as soon as he sees Holly. They both feel that burning attraction, and Rocky will fight for Holly whomever he needs, because he is keeping her no matter what. I received a free copy of this Audiobook via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

MMA fighter Rocky (H) spies Holly (h) in a bar and instantly knows she’s his. She insists they have to keep their feelings for one another a secret or they’ll face the wrath of her powerful senator father. Things heat up quickly between the massive protective Rocky and the younger Holly in this Christmastime romantic quickie with a side of heat.

This was good but sort of bland no real spice to speak of.

I enjoyed Rocky & Holly’s story. She’s the only thing he wants for Christmas, but she’s the senator’s daughter and off limits. It was an entertaining read. And am voluntarily leaving my review.
