Merry Pucking Christmas: An away-from-home for the holidays novella (Bears Hockey II)
£1.90
Harley Reid
My holiday plans? Boxed wine, flannel pajamas, and Netflix minus the “chill”. I hadn’t planned on getting off my apathy until after New Years—until I accidentally crash into my ex’s new girlfriend’s car. But it’s the motivation I need to flee to my Aunt Nora’s place in NYC for Christmas.
Colliding with a typically grouchy New Yorker isn’t my best foot forward. But sweet Jesus on a cracker, he’s a lickable, Viking-size hunk of hotness. As we somehow keep running into each other, I begin to believe I can shed the hurt and humiliation and be fearless.
Nils Axelsson
My holiday plans? Spending my hockey team’s break alone. My friend Nora, however, won’t let me escape her vortex of holiday cheer, and I find myself agreeing to take her niece to a Rockettes show.
I was expecting an awkward teenager in braces, but it’s the same woman who plowed into me in the elevator. A knock-me-sideways stunning blonde whose beauty and kindness hits me like a puck to the chest. The more time I spend with her, the more I want as much as I can get before she has to go back home. Unless I can give her a reason to stay.

This is an engaging story with interesting characters.
It’s so full of Christmas cheer it will make your cheeks hurt.
Grab a mug of hot chocolate as this story will definitely get you into the Christmas spirit.
Harley and Nils are so adorable.
I loved Aunt Nora and liked that she had her own story running alongside theirs.

If you know the author you’ll know going in that this will be an engaging story with interesting characters. It’s full of Christmas cheer and the perfect thing to get you into the Christmas spirit, even if you’re a bit of a grinch about the holidays (like me). Harley and Nils are really cute together and I really liked them both right from the start. I also loved Aunt Nora and liked that she had her own little side story going on.
This isn’t my favourite of the authors books (as the competition is stiff and Christmas isn’t my favourite holiday) but I definitely enjoyed it. It’s the perfect read in the run up to Christmas and is making me want to book a trip to NY again.

Harley has no plans for the Christmas holidays except to chill out on her own, until she accidentally crashes into her ex’s new girlfriend’s car, and that has her motivated to head for NYC to her aunt Nora’s. Nils is a grouchy Viking hockey player, who wants to spend the holidays alone, but his friend and neighbor Nora, has other ideas. Harley collides with Nils, and when Nora convinces him to take her niece to a show, he comes face to face with Harley.
This is a well written story which is an emotionally charged, easy to read story, with loss, humor, witty banter, family, friendships, challenges, romance, and love, which leads to an entertaining and heartwarming page turner.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.
