December’s Book of the Month: Holidaze by Bella Jay

Below is Episode 35, and it’s full of spoilers. If you haven’t read Holidaze, skip down to our reviews.

Holidaze: the act of being so wrapped up in the joy and haze of the holiday magic, you might mistake something casual for something much more

Nola Brandy had one thing on her mind when she booked a two-week trip to a ski resort: write her book by any means necessary. And if that meant concocting a plan to make the stranger she was stuck with fall for her in order to get a story out of it, then so be it. Her plan was foolproof because Rubricks Anderson was far from her type. He was just collateral damage or at least that was all he was supposed to be.

The only thing that Bricks Anderson gave his time and attention to was his business. He’d made it a point to not get too close to anyone and women were no exception — even having sex with them had dropped off his radar. So when he laid eyes on the person he’s stuck in a car with for ten hours against his will, he’s conflicted about what to do about the instant attraction he has to her until she opens her mouth and he’s almost sure his body is out of its mind. Magnolia Brandy was too much of everything.

What starts out as a mutual dislike, quickly takes a turn for something neither Bricks nor Nola were expecting and once secrets are revealed, the true question remains: was all of it just a holidaze or was it real?

Bridgette’s Review

Let me just say I Love Love this book. Christmas is the time when you Need all the love, happiness and good sex (lol) you can get. Ms. Bella you did a great job. This was my first read, and not my last, from you and I am so glad I chose you! Cube and Magnolia sooo needed one another. I am happy Maggs stepped out of her comfort zone and took this much need trip.

Renée’s Review

What a unique story? There wasn’t a thing I didn’t love about Holidaze. His was the type of book that kept you smiling but also had you wonder what the heck went on in the past. Oh my goodness, I love when I don’t have the whole story and have to guess what happened to the characters in the past.

I absolutely loved Holidaze from start to finish. Even tho I got mad at a character a time or two, it was amazing. Now I wanna go to Colorado and write a book. Maybe I’ll run into my version of Bricks.
