A heart-warming, steamy holiday vacation romance that will leave your heart full. Ten Reasons to Have a Holiday Fling… That's either the title of a holiday listicle I'll be submitting in the hopes of strumming up extra cash…or it's the mental game I'm playing during après ski. Take a guess. (Hint: You can't get it wrong.) My first impression of the snowboarder balking at the top of the ski run wasn't the greatest. But a couple of drinks in, with his ruffled hair, whiskey eyes and southern twang, Oliver transforms from just another vacationer to sizzling dreamy Texan. This is the year I'm supposed to turn my life around. This is the year I'm supposed to live my life for me. What better way to kickstart my new life than with a holiday fling? Plus, it's my first Christmas without my family. And Oliver's alone at Christmas too. No one should be alone at Christmas, right? That's my logic. Those hot jingly nights keep us warm and toasty through my most unforgettable holiday ever. And then it's goodbye. A sane, healthy, mature parting of ways and the kick off to the Year of Me. But when an impulsive text rekindles the holiday spirit, it's clear the fireworks didn't end at New Year's… Christmas magic abounds in this love story that begins as a carefree holiday fling and transforms in the New Year, through all the seasons, and winds up right up back on Christmas Tree Lane. How to Survive a Holiday Fling is a steamy, standalone holiday romance novel written in dual first-person POV. CLICK 'BUY NOW' TO START YOUR HOLIDAY FLING TODAY! See what reviewers are saying: "Oooh, Isabel Jolie stole my heart with Oliver and Kate! Another absolutely wonderful Holiday Novel and this one gave me a lot of yearning and angst for both main characters...The side characters, especially the Duke family, Sandra, and Noah, are WONDERFUL!! The ranch and the Tetons seem to be their own characters, and really they should be - they're so vast and they take up so much space and love in the book, Ms. Jolie knows how to give them their true meaning in life, the land really can have that kind of impact on people.... Five out of five stars for a book filled to the brim with love, angst, and so much emotion, it left my heart full." -Bex Book Revieux "Hot without being dirty. Ridiculously sweet without being cliche. Trust me, whatever you think you know about romance, Isabel Jolie is at least 10 steps above that, and she surprised me at every turn. Oliver is rugged, in control, and ultra-masculine, but he's also man enough to let Kate make her own decisions and support her while she makes them. And Kate is a delightful mix between fierce and vulnerable, but those vulnerabilities never stop her from fighting for what she wants, and never backing down from anything. How To Survive A Holiday Fling is a must read, written by an author who truly has an instinctual and impressive grasp on both the genre and the human heart!" -International Review of Books Similar to Books Like: Cowboy Kiss Me At Christmas by Genevieve Turner Impossible Love by Kimberly Readnour Snowflake Hollow by Lexi Timms Search Words: Holiday romance, new adult romance, hometown romance, sexy, hot and steamy, happily ever after, sweet love story, romance love, romance billionaire series, billionaire romance, holiday, holiday romance, romance, billionaire, women's fiction, New Years Romance, Christmas Romance, Christmas fiction, vacation romance, long-distance romance, small town romance, sports romance, cowboy romance

Christmas is coming – and so is love. Love is in the air this Christmas, and three couples are finding that working at the holidays comes with an unexpected benefit – a soul mate. This holiday anthology includes three previously published novellas, together for the first time in one collection. Each steamy story features a midlife couple, an alpha male, an independent woman, meddling friends, and a guaranteed happily ever after. Dating Santa: A Hot Workplace Seasoned Romance Forty-year-old Samantha has never had much interest in falling in love. Her troubled childhood taught her that the only person she can rely on is herself. She’s done well for herself, working her way up to manage the second largest department store in the Pacific Northwest. She has a good job, friends, and a little dream house with her very own garden. Everything would be perfect if she could just get through the busy Christmas shopping season and find the perfect Santa to work at the store. It turns out the perfect Santa is also the perfect man for her. Recently retired after twenty-five years in the Navy, Dominick is taking some time off as he plans his next move. When his sister asks him to help her employment agency by applying for a Santa job, Dom figures it will be an easy way to pass the time. Little does he know he’s about to meet the woman he’s been looking for his whole life. She claims that she hates Christmas, but he’s going to make it his mission to make Sammie fall in love with Christmas. If he has any luck, she’ll also fall in love with Santa himself. Maid for Christmas: A Hot Female Billionaire Romance The woman sweeping the floor isn't who he thinks she is... When Nina slips into James' office to clean one evening, he assumes she is the maid. It's an understandable mistake, given that Nina is filling in for one of her vacationing employees. The high-powered CEO of Johnson Janitorial enjoys playing undercover boss to stay in touch with her employees and keep herself grounded. When James asks her out, Nina is cautious. She doesn't want to date a guy who hits on her staff and flaunts his wealth, but he finally wears her down. After years of guys trying to use her or feeling intimidated by her wealth, Nina likes the anonymity of being plain old Nina, cleaning lady. But as their holiday romance blossoms, it becomes harder and harder to justify not telling James who she really is. When her secret comes out, will James still like her when he realizes her net worth is so much higher than his? Or can this unlikely couple find a love that lasts longer than the holidays? Santa’s Claws: An Instalove Paranormal Christmas Romance This year Santa is getting a Christmas present…a brand new mate! Tony is transitioning back to civilian life after twenty years in the military and trying to figure out his next steps. When his mom signs him up to play Santa at Greysden's annual holiday festival, he's not happy about it. After so many years away from his family, he's lost his love of the holiday, and the last thing the grumpy wolf wants to do is spread Christmas cheer. Marissa just moved to town, looking for a fresh start to heal her broken heart. When a growly Santa tracks her down and says he's her fated mate, she wonders if he's got some kind of brain injury. Humans don't turn into wolves, right? Even crazier…falling in love with someone she just met. But is it real? Or just a Christmas romance?
