No, I’m not referring to the movie. I’m referring to me. Library Journal reviewed KISSING SANTA CLAUS – yay!! It named the authors as “Kauffman, Donna & others”** which, believe it or not, is not the most flattering thing ever. Oh, well. At least the book is in there and the reviewer liked it!
Kauffman, Donna & others. Kissing Santa Claus. Brava: Kensington. Oct. 2009. 326p. ISBN 978-0-7582-3884-9. pap. $14. CONTEMPORARY
Continuing the Brava tradition of sexy holiday anthologies, this trio of steamy stories takes readers from cozy wintry towns to lush tropical resorts, providing romance with all the sizzle fans have come to expect. Holly Berry Bennett reluctantly returns to Willow Creek when her parents leave her in charge of their Christmas store and finds love—and uncovers secrets—with an old school friend in Kauffman’s “Lock, Stock, and Jingle Bells”; the owner of an endangered bed-and-breakfast is forced to give shelter to the gorgeous lawyer who’s threatening to foreclose in Jill Shalvis’s “Bah, Handsome”; and a woman with an unbelievable run of bad luck is stranded on Kauai, HI, during the holidays under the watchful eye of a determined cop in HelenKay Dimon’s “It’s Hotter at Christmas.” VERDICT Unforeseen romance, a dash of mystery, and Brava’s brand of hot sex add zing for fans who like their holiday reading on the lusty side.
**Others = Jill Shalvis & HelenKay Dimon, in case you didn’t get that.

Well, yay for the good review but O_o “and others?” Really?
Burn. You and Jill definitely aren’t “and others.” Silly reviewer.

by Jill Shalvis October 29th, 2009 at 7:25 amThose others are my favorites.
Glad they liked it though
