Great review as usual Alyssa!<br /><br />While I agree that women shouldn't be walking over a hero, it goes the same way. I feel like lots of romance books feature alpha males as well, bossing around women for the sexy times, and I find that I have little patience for those nowadays. That's why books where the love interests build a relationship on respect and balance are so attractive to me!<br /><br />- Aila <a href="onewayoranauthor.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">One Way Or An Author</a>Aila https://www.blogger.com/profile/18006135801041122020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-85802938423529211542017-10-29T14:56:27.094-04:002017-10-29T14:56:27.094-04:00I totally understand the...I like it, but feeling ...I totally understand the...I like it, but feeling when you finish a book.

This one actually caught my attention the other week when I saw it mentioned in an InkSlinger PR email; however, after reading your review I'm not too sure. First of all, a Christmas novella with little actual Christmas things? Now that's a cruel, cruel tease :( Also, I 100% agree with you on the heroines that c%%p all over the heroes. It's just not okay, there's so many other ways to be fierce and brave. Anyhow, great review, Alyssa! Glad to hear you did get your HEA ending even with the cons.

But yay for awesome man ;) But uuugh, awful girl is the worst thing in a book, and I'm sorry you didn't love this one at all. Sigh. But I'm glad you still liked the book :) And a happy ending? That is the best thing. <3Carina Olsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10962924929801205597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-84376386482545000552017-10-28T01:35:45.052-04:002017-10-28T01:35:45.052-04:00I am sorry to hear that this book didn't work ...I am sorry to hear that this book didn't work for you like you wanted. Honestly those super feminist heroines drive me bonkers. I am all about treating each other fairly. And no one *male or female* are above one another. We are all on the same page and so I struggle with authors writing heroines that abuse the hero. I am pretty sure I won't be picking this one up. However I still want to try this author out.
