A MM Holiday Christmas Romance

By: Annabeth Albert

***Coming this holiday season from the beloved author of The Geek Who Saved Christmas. A yummy buffet of fan-favorite tropes: older brother's best friend, military, fish out of water, coworkers, found family, first times, and of course, a big serving of grumpy/sunshine.

Sweet holiday romance.

Catered All the Way was a sweet, easy holiday read.
I really liked Zeb and Atlas. Gabe was a bit of a jerk, disregarding Zeb's career, but he came around in the end which made me happy.
I liked that there wasn't a lot of angst and drama, which is perfect for a light holiday read.

Love Alexander Cendese.

Super adorable!

Annabeth Albert’s holiday romances always hit, so I knew I was going to absolutely adore Catered All the Way! It was so cozy, cute, and spicy & I loved Zeb and Atlas so much!

Such a great listen, but I so wish this narration had been a duet!

Good Story With Business Men (Sexy)

This review is simple. I like stories that involve people involved in business and that shows the active business processes, especially if they are entrepreneurs. I find that sexy! The characters in this book are very sexy because they are working more than one business and are entrepreneurs. NICE!

Great Holiday Romance!

I really enjoyed this book! This was another great book from Annabeth Albert! This was a fun holiday romance and has low angst. I really appreciated that! I had a fun time reading this!

Zeb and Atlas were nicely well-rounded. I appreciated that neither of them was perfect, as this made the characters more relatable. The names of all of the characters were a little quirky but helped amp up the fun factor. I loved Atlas’s bi-awakening journey. I felt this was believable as well.

Overall this was a fun read with great characters! It made for a wonderful holiday romance! I definitely recommend it!

The audio narrator was great! I love listening to him and he brought a nice dynamic to the story!

All the feels!

It’s no shock- Annabeth Stubbs again with another amazing Christmas book.

Atlas and Zeb are the most adorable. I love that they both simultaneously want the best for one another and go out of each others way to show they are worth the love and effort.

Will read yearly

This was such a great book and perfect reading just before Christmas. I know I’ll read again next year! I seriously got chocked up by Renzo and Canaan’s cameos. Too bad the new team calls him Rooster! Another amazing book from an amazing author. And the narration was great too!

Fun and Light

This story was a fun listen. Just what I was looking for in a holiday romance. There’s something about Alexander Cendese’s narration style that really worked in this story. Well done!

adorable

this was a cute short story that I would listen to again. I wish the ending was a little longer I love HEA. Alexander cendese is one of my favorite narrators and did amazing with the characters.

A mild, merry go round romance

There was nothing bad about this MM romance, but it was remarkably bland. The cartoon cover suggested comedy, but the closest this came was a cute scene or two. The title promised holiday shenanigans, but there were mere crumbs of holiday activities. The advertised grumpy sunshine trope? More like sedate and sunshine… I’m not sure there was even one moment where Atlas was a grump. The best friend’s little brother taboo? Mere lip service. I’m all for low angst in my holiday romance,
but I need some peppermint zip in my Christmas cocoa.

The narrating was similarly washed out. The narrator was great for seniors and kids, but his voicing of Navy Seal Atlas and gamer Zeb was so similar that I frequently couldn’t tell whose POV was on deck.

One thing standing out from the vanilla was the sex. I think there were a half dozen detailed sex scenes. Maybe it was that I didn’t buy the premise of a 35 year old Navy Seal who never even questioned whether he liked other men. Or, maybe I didn’t buy how effortlessly he took to MM sex. Or maybe it was the
weird contrast between a mild, almost cozy story and the clearly (and frequent, lengthily described) sex. Maybe it was a combination of all of these, but the sex scenes did absolutely nothing for me.
I don’t regret listening; I’m just unlikely to remember anything about this a month from now.
