Summary

My name is Jake Sheppard and I’m ambivalent about Christmas and the Christmas-themed town I grew up in。 But when I find out my late uncle left me an old barn and acres of land, the decision to return home to build my dream golf course is an easy one。

Imagine my surprise when I arrive and find out I have a squatter。

An incredibly sexy squatter, with wavy blonde hair, green eyes, a free spirit… and a herd of goats。

Sutton hates my guts。 Apparently evicting a non-paying non-tenant and her goats weeks before Christmas is grounds for war。

Except Sutton's version of war includes flinging her clothing at me and, as it turns out, I might be in way over my head with this girl…


Warning: Christmas in Reindeer Falls is more naughty than nice。 These stories are over-the-top festive with merrily-ever-afters guaranteed。 Novella length for quick holiday binge reading。 Enjoy!

This is the cutest story。 I laughed and melted with this wonderful novella。 Sutton is a free spirit with a heart of gold。 She is a proud mama of rescued goats and makes soap from their milk in a farm she just adopted along the way。 So many hilarious moments there with her adorable inner dialogue, the lively goats, and especially a surprised lawyer from the city that plans to evict her。 Of course, that goes out the Christmas-decked window as soon as he tastes her wild life, the benefits of farm w This is the cutest story。 I laughed and melted with this wonderful novella。 Sutton is a free spirit with a heart of gold。 She is a proud mama of rescued goats and makes soap from their milk in a farm she just adopted along the way。 So many hilarious moments there with her adorable inner dialogue, the lively goats, and especially a surprised lawyer from the city that plans to evict her。 Of course, that goes out the Christmas-decked window as soon as he tastes her wild life, the benefits of farm work, and her many charms。 It's so pretty and sweet and fun! And also hot。 I love the bunch of friends and their conversations。 Can't wait for the third story。 。。。more

Jake and Suttons story will definitely put in the holiday spirit, I mean who doesn’t love goats!!!! These two couldn’t be more different but I was all about it, Jake is all buttoned up and aggravating at times with his attitude and Sutton owns goats, enough said there lol!! I loved everything about Sutton and her goofy personality, she was exactly what Jake didn’t know he needed!!

One Night with a Nutcracker by Jana Aston is the fifth book in the Reindeer Falls series and I loved it!

This a great addition to the Reindeer Falls collection。 I love the fact that Sutton Stewart is essentially squatting with her goats on a piece of property that Jake Sheppard has inherited。 But her thought process that was empty for years and no one came looking makes sense。 The goats and their names were a great side character to this story, and the way in which Sutton treats them is great。 These two butt heads over so many things, but the reaction that Jake has to her goats and the way she live This a great addition to the Reindeer Falls collection。 I love the fact that Sutton Stewart is essentially squatting with her goats on a piece of property that Jake Sheppard has inherited。 But her thought process that was empty for years and no one came looking makes sense。 The goats and their names were a great side character to this story, and the way in which Sutton treats them is great。 These two butt heads over so many things, but the reaction that Jake has to her goats and the way she lives is so similar to the way his brother acts。 The fact that he wants to turn this property into a golf course is a tragedy to Sutton and she tries to show him all the mazing things her goats have to offer。 There are moments that you question what is going to drive Jake to stay…but there is a moment with an inspection that he throws down in defense of Sutton and the way he changes his tune about the goats is adorable。 I wanted a little bit more interaction between the friends, and we have yet to truly have any interaction between the brothers, but I am really enjoying these quick and steamy holiday novellas。 。。。more

A holiday romance with some sugar, a whole lot of spice, and everything nice。 Well, maybe not everything。 Some should be on the naughty list。I highly recommend reading this quick, fun and festive enemies to lovers/opposites attract romance with over-the-top, awkward moments involving goats (yes, goats), lots of laughs, sizzling attraction, & the perfect touch of emotion。

Cute book!This book is a bit of an emotional rollercoaster。 In a good way。 Sutton is a squatter on some land and Jake comes to tell her to get out。 These two mesh so well。together。 The hippie and the lawyer。

Goats GaloreJake Shepard is back in town to claim his inheritance and turn it into a golf course。 Sutton, the goat farmer who’s been squatting on the land has quite a bit to say about his plans to evict her, right before Christmas。 Can you say GRINCH? But while these two battle it out, the insidious but ever so heated attraction between just keeps popping up。 Will Jake be swayed by the Christmas spirit? Or will Sutton and her goats weave their way into his heart? Super holiday fun read!

Sutton is my spirit bestie。I think this has been my favourite book of the whole reindeer falls series。 I had a few quotes to put in my review but I'm fighting with myself to add them or not to add them。 My reason for adding them is selfish they highlight why I love Sutton so much。 The reason I don't want to post them is I really really don't want to spoil these parts of the book for you。 So I'm not going to。 But please believe me I had quite a few moments in this book that I wanted to shout from Sutton is my spirit bestie。I think this has been my favourite book of the whole reindeer falls series。 I had a few quotes to put in my review but I'm fighting with myself to add them or not to add them。 My reason for adding them is selfish they highlight why I love Sutton so much。 The reason I don't want to post them is I really really don't want to spoil these parts of the book for you。 So I'm not going to。 But please believe me I had quite a few moments in this book that I wanted to shout from the rafters to share my joy。 I think Sutton and Jake compliment each other perfectly both stubborn but compromising and every woman would love to have a Jake of her own。 Such a great read, I have so much to say but I don't want to spoil the book。 Enjoy x 。。。more
