Candy Cane Challenge: A Cinnamon Roll Hero Christmas Romance (Christmas in the City Book 2) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 374 ratings

One year ago, Holly and Jackson met when their best friends Gemma and Cole got together. There was an instant spark between them, but they were looking for different things. Holly wanted a fling and Jackson was after love. When it came time for him to return to New York, they parted as friends and Holly stayed behind in London.

Now, Holly has come to New York for Gemma and Cole's wedding and to spend Christmas with the happy couple... and their best friend. It doesn't take long for Holly and Jackson to realize the electricity between them is still there, but the problem they had before hasn't gone away either. Holly thinks they should just have a good time,while Jackson's looking for a long time.

In the spirit of the season, they agree to a challenge. Jackson will try to win Holly's heart while she does her best to get him into bed. Whoever gives in first is the loser – though as the challenge heats up, it seems less about winning and more about enjoying the game.

When Christmas morning dawns, who will come out on top?

If you're looking for romance, you've come to the right place! I started reading romance novels in my early teens and writing them soon afterwards; growing up in small towns in western Canada, there wasn't much else to do! Luckily those early stories have never seen the light of day. :) Now I live in the UK with my husband and daughter and spend my free time diving into magical or just romantic settings where true love (almost) always wins.

    Love Holly and Jackson’s story. Who knew he was such an innocent. But dang a hot one at that. She is amazing but has had some awful relationships in the past. He hasn’t had much experience but knows what he wants and that is Holly. Enjoy their journey to their HEA. Thanks for the read.

    I wasn't taken with this book right away. I felt Holly was a bit of a tease and only cared about sleeping with Jackson. As the story went along and they confided more to each other I began to like the characters more. I liked the premise of getting Holly to fall in love but I think they just needed time from their original meeting to get together. Good story in the end and cute ending of both stories coming together.

    I absolutely, positively adored this book. Jackson and Holly were perfectly, imperfect people, just like the rest of us. I loved their chemistry, the instant attraction and comfort with each other. They both had a history of betrayal that heavily influenced how their interacted with the opposite sex. It was refreshing to read that Jackson was still a virgin. I am glad and applaud his decision to wait until he met "the one". He wanted that level of intimacy to take place when he was in a committed relationship. Holly, however having been burnt before by guys who did not deem her worthy of commitment but okay for sex, wants only a casual relationship. Sex with or without friendship.

    Over the course of two weeks, these two wonderful people will grow closer, develop a friendship with some benefits, and a love that will endure.

    Jackson and Holly have quite the adventure in this book. Their banter was well written and made it easy to envision them. This story was steamy enough, but not too steamy. Shows that sometimes you have to see the whole picture of thing’s before you make a decision

    I love the story but hated the ending. Why do you build up to the ending with holly and Jackson and only give them few pages that have skipped years.
    I would have like how Jackson felt about meeting holly family.
    And how holly found out she was pregnant what did she do.
    Not be 3 years later.
    And what did Gemma and holly call there second babies and was they Christmas Day. babies
