Blurb
Rob Barker had plans for his weekend and they didn’t involve struggling through the pre-Christmas crowds with the five-year-old niece he barely knows. Left with no choice, he grudgingly takes Pearl to see the sights of London but, instead of following the list his sister-in-law gives him, Rob takes her to With A Kick, an ice-cream shop with a difference.
His plan is foiled when he discovers With A Kick is closed for a private children's party, but the owners kindly let Pearl join in. Rob’s mood improves considerably as he watches Father Christmas hand out presents. Not only is Santa a hot red-head under the beard, he is also one of his rugby team-mates, Mick, a man Rob has always lusted after. After Mick confesses a mutual interest, he agrees to meet Rob at With A Kick’s evening party—where there are definitely no kids - or girls - allowed.
REVIEW
My Rating - 5 Stars!
Bells and Balls is so funny! I found myself laughing at Rob from the very beginning, and even more when Rob interacts with the Nemesis and Peril!
And, of course, during Rob's day out with his niece, he runs into his teammate, who happens to be playing Santa.
Both men are closeted, and are happy to discover the other is gay.
The entire With A Kick series is fun and humorous, but I have to admit that it will be tough to beat Bells and Balls. This Sue Born book is pure comedy, with a good side of romance.
