Pucking Around the Christmas Tree A Pucking Wrong Christmas by C.R. Jane
So, what happens when a grumpy Christmas-hating heroine marries a tattooed hockey god with a holiday hard-on? You get A Pucking Wrong Christmas, C.R. Jane’s spicy, snarky holiday novella that serves heat with a side of tinsel.
Back for another round of pucking chaos are Lincoln, Ari, and Walker, though this one centers more on Ari and Lincoln, and boy, does it bring the festive feels and a whole lot of heat.
Ari hates Christmas. Not in a “bah humbug” way. No, she’s got emotional scars wrapped in glittery trauma. Meanwhile, Lincoln is fully committed to Operation Christmas Redemption, and this man goes all in like he’s trying out for Santa’s special forces.
Naughty, Nice, and Everything in Between
Let’s talk strengths. First off, Lincoln. Tattooed. Possessive. Devoted. He is peak cinnamon roll wrapped in sin, and I am eating it up with a fork and a wink.
Ari’s grinchy sass brings balance, and their dynamic sparkles with chemistry. The novella format keeps things snappy, and the cozy holiday backdrop gives this couple room to explore vulnerability without diving into angst overload.
Should You Read It?
Absolutely, yes. If you’re in the mood for a short, steamy Christmas romance that’ll warm your cold, jaded heart faster than a shot of peppermint vodka, A Pucking Wrong Christmas is your next one-sitting read.
Christmas might be the worst… but Lincoln? He’s the absolute best.
