"The Santa Clause meets Husband Material in this delightful holiday novel! Patrick Hargrave and Quinn Muller have been married for less than a year, but their passionate romance is cracking under the pressures of domestic life and a cumbersome mortgage. That's until Christmas Eve when Patrick wakes Quinn up with: "I think I've killed a man." Quinn realizes the "burglar" Patrick knocked out is none other than Mr. Claus himself. Instructed by a harried elf to don the red suit and take the reins of the reindeer-guided sleigh up on the roof, Quinn and Patrick work together to save Christmas. But as the sun rises on Christmas morning, the sleigh brings them back to the North Pole instead of New Jersey, and they're in for a massive shock. The couple must assume the roles of Santa Claus and the first ever Merriest Mister or Christmas will be canceled... permanently. With Christmas-and their marriage-on the line, Patrick and Quinn agree to stay together for one year. But can running a toy shop together save their relationship, or will Patrick and Quinn be stuffing coal in each other's stockings come next Christmas?"--

In this sexy, emotionally satisfying LGBTQIA+ romance, a grumpy sommelier and a flirty mixologist just might be the perfect pairing…Rivalry never tasted so good. O' little town of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania-it may be charming, but Julien Boire can't wait to get out of there. Soon he'll be leaving to take an advanced wine course that will put him on track to become a master sommelier. Meantime, his OCD demands he keep clear of distractions, especially the hot new hire at his aunt and uncle's restaurant, Martin's Place. Which should be easy, because Greg Harlow is as ill-suited to Julien as a bold cabernet is to a delicate salmon entrée. As charismatic and confident as Julien is tightly wound, Greg is a TikTok mixologist who could charm a paper bag. One thing they do have in common: neither wants a relationship. Greg's history with dating is…complicated. Yet working together isn't. First, they're teaming up to launch a series of happy hour events at Martin's Place. Then they're agreeing to a no-strings sex pact that involves new worlds of experimentation. Nothing is off-limits. Except a future. It's exactly how Julien wants it. Except for the little part of him that wonders if maybe he's about to lose the kind of happy that could last much longer than an hour…

"Game show antics, idiots in love, and a healthy dose of steam…this book is everything I want in a romance novel!" -Alison Cochrun, author of The Charm Offensive and Kiss Her Once for MeReady. Set. Faux.Holden James picked the worst time to have a meltdown. His chance to audition for his favorite game show, Madcap Market, should have been a moment of triumph-a glorious, loving homage to his adored mom, who died six years ago. Instead, he's destroying the minibar in a grim Los Angeles hotel room…recently dumped, partnerless and sliding into misery.But at least the hotel service is sublime. It even comes with an unfairly fit and sexy (smart-ass) concierge who arrives at the door with pizza, Monopoly and deliciously distracting forearms.All Holden knows about Leo Min is that he's beautiful and unexpectedly sympathetic, and the chemistry between them is beyond. Maybe it's even enough to convince everyone, including the show's casting directors, that they're a real couple. All they'd have to do is crush the competition, win the huge cash prize and all of Holden's problems-his broken heart, his buried grief, his complete lack of money and direction-will be fixed.Of course, reality doesn't quite work out that way. But love is an entirely different game…From showing up to glowing up, these characters are on the path to leading their best lives and finding sizzling romance along the way.Don't miss these other fun titles from Afterglow Books:The Bookbinder's Guide to Love by Katherine GarberaThe Devil in Blue Jeans by Stacey KennedyFrenemy Fix-Up by Yahrah St. JohnThe Boyfriend Subscription by Steven SalvatoreManila Takes Manhattan by Carla de GuzmanFake Flame by Adele BuckOut of Office by A.H.
