"Yes, Santa," Gail whispered.

To use Christmas magic, the rules say there must be two Claus's. Traditionally, Santa had his Mrs, but Chris isn't interested in a Mrs. But the rules are the rules and Chris must bring in a second Claus. Chris’s father and mother the previous Claus’s expect big things from him.

Chris is happily living his bachelor’s life. He has no want or need to tie himself to someone forever. Marriage is a no go for him, just the thought of the word and he’s ready to hurl, but for him to truly be Santa, he must bring someone in.

Gail is a perfect fit for a temporary fix.

Their arrangement is set. Temporary, a loophole, short term, just for now, only till he finds someone better. There is no reading between the lines. Gail is simply there to be the second Claus and nothing more.

But what happens when they both find something in each other they hadn’t known they were looking for? Gail might be the perfect wrapped present and Chris the home Gail has always longed for.

My Rating - 5 Stars!

If you're looking for something unique, look no further. Brea Alepou's Finding Mr Claus is definitely a unique Christmas romance.

Gail's homeless when Santa falls upon him, setting them off on a new course in life. Gail's past is tragic, giving the reader an upsetting tone at times. Meanwhile Chris is a Dom who can't help but to act on his attraction to the straight Gail.

I love the idea of this book. Heck, a Dom Santa finding a sub Mr Claus? Hell yes! A kinky Santa in general? Bring it on!

The author's writing is great, with fun characters and a whole lot of humor and steam. Seriously hot steam! The first times, the D/s dynamics , everything is terrific. The magic of Christmas is well explored, elves and all. And damn, how I love it!

This story includes naughty times on Santa's lap, Daddy kink, and lots of banter and humor.

Chris's mom is wonderful. I seriously love her. 

This is a story of finding a family and realizing one's self worth. It's a story of finding some hope and love for the first time in one's life, and you'll love it all. I couldn't put it down. 

Finding Mr Clause expertly takes all we've come to know about Santa and the Northpole and twisted it all about and made it more fun than ever. Definitely pick this one up when you're interested in a different kind of Santa story.

Aiden Scott is the hottest thing right now in the online adult entertainment world. Women gush. Men applaud his techniques. And everybody wishes they could be his next partner. Thanks to one little video uploaded by an ex, he’s become famous. His family might disapprove of his methods, but Aiden embraces this notoriety and revels in the reviews. In typical Scott fashion, Aiden’s made a f**king career—out of f**king.

Aiden has rules in place to protect himself. He doesn’t date. He won’t do sleepovers. He's never been interested in someone longer than it takes to reach a mutual climax.

The rules work. They always have. Until he meets one nerdy film major, with big brown eyes and it has him questioning everything.

Skyler C. Bailey is a film major and twenty-one years old. It’s his junior year of college at Vanderbilt. He lives to capture people's raw emotions and life stories through a lens camera. A true introvert at heart, one night out and his whole world is turned upside down. He tries to ignore the growing feelings inside, he’s been there and done that. Been stomped on and pushed to the side. He doesn’t want to go through that again, but he can’t ignore his heart even if he’s afraid he’s about to learn the hardest lesson of all: never trust a p*rn star.

My Rating - 5 Stars!

Holy crap! Never Trust a P**n Star is an amazing read. It will catch your attention and never let you go.

The fun starts when nerdy Skylar is suddenly pursued by Aidan, who happens to be a famous gay porn star. The chemistry between Skylar and Aidan is amazing, and I love every moment of their journey. Seriously though, this is a story of a famous porn star pursuing a shy and awkward college film student. Of course it's a great story. Luckily for the readers, the writing is phenomenal, thus carrying out this remarkable story in a riveting manner.

I love this story. Both men are lovable, and I appreciate the way that the porn industry is illustrated. Skylar's view on sex, which is progressive and open-minded, is a fabulous thing to read. Too often we find characters who are jealous and closed minded. I truly love this aspect of the Skylar.


Adding to the fun, Skylar's school project is about the porn industry, allowing him to be passionate and understanding of Aidan's work.


Add in some supportive and entertaining secondary characters, just the right amount of angst, and you'll love this story. 

Next time you're looking to read about a porn star, jump into this Brea Alepou read. Never Trust a P**n Star is a stunningly sweet tale and it's one hell of a read that is sure to satisfy.
