BLURB:
When I go home for the holidays, Santa has a secret waiting for me…
I wandered far and wide in search of happiness, never finding what I sought. When I return to Christmas Falls to lick my wounds, the last thing I expect is for Santa to send me a golden-haired, blue-eyed man I once called my best friend—the friend who was taken away from me when we were kids.
Milo Montgomery is back in town, and he doesn’t wait for miracles to come to him. There’s a special sort of magic in the way he spreads joy throughout our town.
His chocolate shop might be struggling, but that can’t break his festive spirit. His optimism is contagious, and his cheerful mood makes me feel like I’m thirteen again, catching snowflakes on my tongue. As we walk down memory lane, recreating every Christmas Eve we spent together, our friendship becomes everything I’ve been missing.
Milo confesses I was his first and only love. But as a straight man, I can never love him the same way. Or can I? I’m beginning to question everything I thought I knew about myself. About the world.
Maybe happiness has nothing to do with a place. Maybe all it takes is the right person.
Christmas Falls: Season 2 revisits a small town that thrives on enough holiday charm to rival any Hallmark movie. It’s a multi-author M/M romance series.
REVIEW:
Imagine: deliciously looking chocolates filled with love and passion!
Milo runs a little chocolate shop Jingle Bites in Santa’s Village, but business isn’t going as he hoped. He still creates the most delicious chocolate.
It’s a small town, he understands Christian is back in town. Not just for a visit, but to stay.
Back in the days, before Milo had to leave town because of his parents’ work, he and Christian were best friends.
Milo had a crush on Christian, straight Christian, Milo not so.
Milo returned to town and started his chocolate shop, it took Christian longer to return, not voluntarily. In short, Christian is broke, depressed, and unhappy.
He’s not in a Christmas mood, but entering Milo’s shop changed everything for him.
It’s been fifteen years, reuniting was so easy if life could be just that.
Milo’s feelings for Christian are still there as if they never left, so sad Christian is straight.
Melancholic feelings all over the place, one feels so lonely and the other thinks he’s broken.
After Milo confessed about his crush on Christian, something happened, something changed, an out-of-the-body experience, something both never thought was possible! My heart!
“But as I couldn’t turn back time, I decided to be happy. And even that decision made me the happiest I had ever been.”
Milo with his golden heart, is so kind, delicate, warm, and soft, and always looking out for the others around him. For Christian, Milo is his safe place, something he yearned for!
Jingle Bites is heaven, the smell and taste of chocolate and the divine ingredients, yes, a little heaven on earth.
The soft touches brought to this story gave me goosebumps and touched my soul, it was pure poetry, full of kindness, love, and the good things in life!
Overall, it was a beautifully crafted Christmas miracle!
