After my mother was diagnosed with cancer last year, she has been on my siblings and I to get married.

Afraid that her time is running out, she just wants to be here for all of the milestones in our life.

Iโ€™m the last one left, the one who doesnโ€™t even have a girlfriend.

My family knows that my life is invested in hockey, yet they still continue to push.

I canโ€™t show up at my brotherโ€™s wedding alone and deal with their disappointment.

Instead, I need to find someone who will pretend to be my girlfriend for the week.

With my family gone for Christmas, it looks like Iโ€™m spending the holidays alone.

Until Asher Golding propositions me.

Weโ€™ve been friends since freshman year and swore to keep it that way.

Asher asks me to go to Maine with him, to be his fake date for his brotherโ€™s wedding.

He wants me to spend the holiday with his family afterwards, to make his mother happy.

Who am I to say no?

I donโ€™t have any plans, Asher is one of my closest friends, and weโ€™re just playing pretend.

My Review

OH HOLLY JOLLY!! ๐ŸŽ„I am aching for Asher and Sydney stole my heart instantly. I canโ€™t stop with Cali Melle and her wonderfully mouth watering Wyncote Hockey Boys. With every new book I find myself more and more entranced in this book world she has created and I never want to leave it. I sent Santa ๐ŸŽ… my list and it included lots and lots of Wyncote stories. Iโ€™m talking, Cali Melle can do generations if needed. Pretty Please with gumdrops and candy canes.  I just need these men like I need hot chocolate ๐Ÿซ this time of the year. 

Asher and Sydneyโ€™s short, sexy, and swoony little novella gave me everything I needed to take me out of my Christmas chaos. I was able to grab a hot drink, a comfy blanket and settle in while my kiddos took a long winterโ€™s napโ€ฆ SIKE! ๐Ÿ˜ My kids wonโ€™t nap. But the great thing- this is just the perfect length novella. I devoured it in the time it took for a round of the Grinch movie and an afternoon snack. Not one of my little creatures was stirring, but mamaโ€™s heat level sure was. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Fake dating ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ‘จ

Friends to lovers ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜and

Forced proximity ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

Sports romance๐Ÿ’

Hot couples ๐Ÿฅตand

Loveable families.๐Ÿฅฐ

Package that all up for me, ๐Ÿ’top it with bows.๐ŸŽ Oh I am such a big olโ€™ Christmas Ho. Ho, HOOOO! ๐Ÿคญ

Okay so my rhymes may need work, but this book does not. It will quickly become one of your favorite holiday reads. With heart, heat and some holiday cheer. Donโ€™t miss this standalone novella in the Wyncote Wolves series. FIVE CHRISTMAS STARS!!! ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŽ„

I will highlight a couple of my favorites but I recommend everyone grab this amazing collection to support this great cause and enjoy this remarkable collection. 

Ember byย Kandi Steiner

Ember gives us the short story of a chief stew on a charter yacht in the Mediterranean. She has worked her fanny off to get where she is at the lady in charge. While catering to the super rich and hot Ember finds herself at essentially a crossroads of sorts. She has been the one thus far to provide her charter guests will all the luxury and lavishness she can and now she is being offered a chance at being spoiled like that. But at the same time for a while Ember has been in a constant battle with the cook, Finn. Mr, hotter than anything coming out of his kitchen, Finn and Ember have been battling each other in some smexy tension filled banter for a while now and they just need to bang it out already. His whispers in her ear of the things he wants to do to her are hotter than anything he could possibly have cooking up on the stove. It is just the perfect short, but oh so explosive encounter!!   

  

Camilla~ Cali Melleย 

Camilla is the short novella where we are introduced to Camilla Knight and Owen Hart. Camilla is a hard working single mom to a young, Hockey loving son, Logan Knight. ( who eventually grows up to be our Hero in Cross Checked Hearts. Wyncote Wolves #1) She has spent years working hard and building a successful business and now at twenty-nine is CEO of her own company. When a business meeting introduces her to Owen Hart, who is obviously attracted to her. She shares in that attraction but where Owen is upfront about it she is more uncomfortable and tries to put distance between them. Letโ€™s just say his persistence pays off, and Camilla decides to give into what she really wants. I love how it literally goes from dinner to down and dirty so fast. YUMMY!! If you havenโ€™t met the Wyncote Wolves  Hockey series by Cali Melle you absolutely NEED to ASAP.

August Whitley was just a flingโ€“someone fun to spend my time with no strings attached.

We broke things off before our feelings grew, but it was already too late.

After leaving town, I swore to myself that I would never look back.

And when I get surprising news, Iโ€™m completely committed to doing it alone.

Neither of us were ready for a commitment and after a misunderstanding, she left town without a single word.

I tried to find her, but it was as if she fell off the grid. It was messing with my head and becoming a threat to my hockey career.

Until one night, one date with another girlโ€ฆ I find Poppy working at the restaurant and sheโ€™s pregnant.

Holy Hot Hockey Pucksl!!๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ I am beyond obsessed with August and Poppyโ€™s addictively sweet and unforgettable story. I am allured by August, and Poppy is just positively perfect. This is a steamy and dreamy second chance romance with all the feels. A must read surprise pregnancy/sports romance thatโ€™s hotter than H-E-double-hockey-sticks!! ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ’

August is loving life, living his dream playing hockey for the Wyncote Wolves hoping it will lead to playing professionally one day. He lives, eats, and sleeps hockey and has no plans of letting anything get in the way of that. However, things just got complicated. Because when he runs into the hookup he hasnโ€™t been able to get out of his head his thoughts about what matters most for his future just might start to look completely different. For months he searched for Poppy and now here she is in front of him with an obvious bun in her ovenโ€ฆand Itโ€™s pretty likely that August is the one that put that bun in Poppyโ€™s oven.๐Ÿ‘ถ๐Ÿผ

Then comes the sweet and swoony side of August and oh he just stole my heart. โ™ฅ๏ธ This is a reformed playboy (with a heart of gold). Take note, I said play boy as opposed to Fork-boy. I always knew he was a good guy to his core. Even when he and Poppy were just hooking up, they were only hooking up with each other.ย 

Oh my sweet Poppy. ๐Ÿฅบ My heart just hurt for all sheโ€™d been through. She knows how August feels about commitment and that is fine with her until she finds out her future is about to change in a big way. ๐Ÿคฐ๐ŸผShe felt she couldnโ€™t do that to August so she did the only thing she could think of, she ran. She knew she needed to confront the truth and tell August one day. But a few months passed and she would confront him whether she was ready or not when they happened upon each other. While it seems like August quickly wants to jump right into the deep end, Poppy just wants to tread lightly in the shallow end and guard her heart. But she sees the changes in August. He is going out of his way to prove to her what is most important to him and that is quickly crumbling the walls sheโ€™s put up. He wanted to take care of her.

Oh my heart! I legit ATE.IT.UP. Heย  just made me melt. ๐Ÿซ The way he went after what he wanted. His patience with her, he was smexy, sweet, and sensitive. He went from a non-committal guy to just the guy that knows how to love you wholly. Mind, heart and body. Unselfishly. WOW! Is my love for August obvious or what?! ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ

I can not get enough of this series. These Wyncote Wolves are everything. My hubby was never into hockey but boy do they have me wishing he was. Lolย  Itโ€™s just so aggressive and testosterone filled and HOTT!! Good GAH! What a great group of guys too. They are just amazingly written characters and I want ALL of their stories. So far in each book we get enough snippets of the ones with stories to come to be intrigued and anticipating the days until we get them. I love that they are all so aggressive and alpha when they need to be.ย ย I find myself binging hockey teams on TikTok and picking out I think who would be my who.

Deflected Hearts is told in dual POV ( my personal favorite) and is the second standalone book in the Wyncote Wolves series. I am in love with how Cali Melleโ€™s writing just sucks you right into the story and I cannot get enough of her panty melting, heart stealing heroes and the strong willed and sassy heroines that bring these men to their knees. While you donโ€™t have to read Cross Checked Hearts before reading this book I would definitely recommend checking out Logan and Islaโ€™s story. It is a fantastic brotherโ€™s best friend’s romance as Isla is Augustโ€™s sister and Logan is his best friend.ย ย ย
