Blair Anderson only thinks of Caden Bell as his best friend’s younger brother, a straight-laced jock still dating his high-school sweetheart. They are as different as night and day. Caden has always considered Blair an enigma, the way he lights up every room with his self-confidence and perfectly sculpted cheekbones. But since childhood they’ve drifted worlds apart. Life as an international model isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, so when Blair escapes to his best friend’s beach house for some R&R, he’s shocked to discover Caden had the same idea. Apparently, he called it quits with his girlfriend and was looking for a little alone time too. Instead of rock, paper, scissors to determine who gets to stay, they decide to share the house and keep out of each other’s way. Easier said than done. As they reconnect, Blair is captivated by Caden’s bald honesty. And Caden realizes that Blair isn’t a mystery—he’s genuine and funny and still utterly gorgeous.

Seeing Blair in a new light short-circuits Caden’s brain, and before he knows it, he’s confiding in Blair about his bi-curiosity. Blair couldn’t be more taken aback as advice turns to solace, then ignites into an intense spark neither man anticipated. Blair had done and seen it all, so what could it hurt to help Caden experience some new things?

After all, it’s only a holiday hookup.
Until it’s not.

My Rating - 5 Stars!

Christina Lee's Beautiful Temptation is a feel-good Christmas romance. Blair and Caden end up sharing a place over the holidays, resulting in a developing romance between the men. Their history isn't friendly, as their high school years found them distance and in different crowds. It's a fun holiday hookup romance. Damn, I love these guys. Blair and Caden are complete opposites. One a jock, the other a model. To say that their life experiences are vastly different is an understatement. Despite being a short story, I found both men and their relationship to be well developed. The food issues resonated with me on a large scale. Knowing people who suffer like this, I find this aspect to be extremely well written, and a tough thing to read. I seriously love Beautiful Temptation. I am a sucker for a good best friend's brother romance and this one is spectacular. It's a perfect combination of best friend's brother and hookup turning into more. Add in the addition of all the holiday feels and it has all the makings of a heart-warming read.
