Book Review: All I Want For Christmas by Ros Clarke

All I Want For ChristmasAll I Want For Christmas by Ros Clarke
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Last night, Anna Gardner was the life of the office Christmas party—right up until she threw herself at gorgeous advertising executive playboy, Hugh Munro. Again. Last year, Hugh let her pretend their passionate kiss never happened, but this year he’s determined to make Anna admit she wants him as much as he wants her. 

Except, Hugh doesn't know the office party is the only night of the year his friend lets her hair down. That every hour she’s away from the office is spent caring for her sickly mother. That her mother’s condition, early-onset Alzheimer’s disease, is hereditary.

When Hugh finds out what she’s been hiding, he’s forced to do some serious soul-searching. It's not fair to Anna or her mother for him to get involved casually, but casual relationships are all he knows. Can he prove to himself—and to Anna—that she’s all he wants for Christmas?


    When I was asked by Entangled to review this, I agreed immediately. And let me tell you, I did not regret reading it.

    It’s short and meaningful. It wasn’t hastenly written for such a short story, plus it’s perfect for the holidays. This is the kind of read one should have before a kindling fire and a hot mug of chocolate. The story itself holds a nice lesson that love must not be conditional and I just love how the story was written. REad on! Happy Christmas!
