Red, White & Royal Blue meets The Nightmare Before Christmas in a sexy, quirky rom-com where the golden-hearted Prince of Christmas falls for the totally off-limits Prince of Halloween.
Nicholas “Coal” Claus used to love Christmas. Until his father, the reigning Santa, turned the holiday into a PR façade. Coal will do anything to escape the spectacle, including getting tangled in a drunken, supremely hot make-out session with a beautiful man behind a seedy bar one night.
But the heir to Christmas is soon commanded to do his duty: he will marry his best friend, Iris, the Easter Princess and his brother’s not-so-secret crush. A situation that has disaster written all over it.
Things go from bad to worse when a rival arrives to challenge Coal for the princess’s hand…and Coal comes face-to-face with his mysterious behind-the-bar hottie: Hex, the Prince of Halloween.
It’s a fake competition between two holiday princes who can’t keep their hands off each other over a marriage of convenience that no one wants. And it all leads to one of the sweetest, sexiest, messiest, most delightfully unforgettable love stories of the year.
A Macmillan Audio production from Bramble Books.

I have to say, Prince Hez mentions near the end of this book that he experienced the whole spectrum of human emotion in 40 minutes. I did so in the 15 or so hours of this book. It's a feat not every author or narrator can pull out of me.
So this is a fictional fantasy young adult rom-com where each holiday is like a monarchy with a full Royal Court and ruling family. Our main boy is Coal, the Prince of Christmas, who is bissexual and obviously emotionally scarred by his tumultuous family life. One day, while traying to spread joy to the world, Coal commits what seems to be a colossal mistake, which leads him to a drunken yet life changing ecounter with a mysterious dark stranger.
Months later, as Santa Claus plots to pretty much conquer the whole world, this dark figure comes back to his life as none other than Prince Hex of Halloween, a suitor for Princess Iris of Easter in a twist not-quite love triangle, and the attraction is undeniable, setting Coal on a whole new path in life.
A lot of people have been saying how impossible and non-sensical this book is but... it is romantasy as its core, I think, so I think it makes sense in its own way. I actually think this worldbuilding is pretty thorough and crearive, I quite like the humor in it. I think there is a certain degree of self-awareness.
I loved how nuanced the characters are, I became really invested in all four protagonisrs, but especially Coal and Hex, who are pretty much thorougly explored in all of their facets here. I really liked them, I think they were really welt built and fleshed our. I love how the love story progressed. It was fun, and wmotional, and very true I felt like. Oh, and very sexy, to the pooint that it got me bothered in puublic transportation. Also often laughing out loud and treay eyed at times. Sreiously rare.
Finally, as for the woke metaphors and messages... I don't think it's that deep,or that political, to be honest. It's just a social commentary, and in my opionion quite clever at times.
I really wanna see Kris and Iris get their respective happy endings now. NOW
Brilliant, a firm favorite already
