“So if you like holiday-themed books that are spicy as they are sweet, then I would definitely recommend this book.”
~ Under the Covers

I’m really not surprised to see another holiday-themed book from Jill Shalvis. In fact, they are probably one of my favorite books to read by her.

WRAPPED UP IN YOU is book eight in the Heartbreaker Bay series. I really love seeing how she incorporates the holidays in these types of books. Just as you would expect, this book is rife with charm and humor and this is played up even more because of the hero and heroine.

I found that I really liked the couple this time. Ivy and Kel felt refreshing and I really liked their dynamics together. Sometimes I can feel like the books are too similar with this series, but perhaps Shalvis is starting to mix things up again.

I have noticed that there are some issues with continuity in some places like for example, the previous characters who make cameos tend to act differently than in their books. Hopefully that and the other things I’ve noticed get fixed quickly and don’t occur again.

I liked the concept of trust in this book because it was nice to see how two non-trusting people could fall in love. It just made Ivy and Del feel more relatable to readers. So if you like holiday-themed books that are spicy as they are sweet, then I would definitely recommend this book.

Blogger/Reviewer at Under the Covers Book Blog

I’m an obsessive makeup junkie and a compulsive reader. I like to call Under the Covers Book Blog my stomping ground, but when I’m not talking about books with my girls, I write New Adult Dystopian and Contemporary Romance under the pen name Ana Jolene (http://www.anajolene.com). I also work as a virtual assistant for authors. You also can find me as a reviewer and columnist for FreshFiction.com.

When it comes to books I’m pretty adventurous. I read everything from Paranormal Romance to Urban Fantasy, New Adult, BDSM, LGBT fiction, Cozy Mysteries and even YA. If it’s got the littlest trace of romance in it, then I’ll probably read it. That being said, my all-time favorite authors are J.R. Ward and Karen Marie Moning.

When I’m not submerged in a good book, you can find me musing about makeup and planners or dreaming about Kpop boys and beaches. Until then, check out my reviews and let’s talk books!
