not bedtime reading but very good!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

A collection of 23 different authors come together to bring you short stories set around the winter season or Christmas.

Not a single one of these authors have I read before, and there is a varied bunch of tales here. Some are just sad but some are downright scary!

Loosely, they are "holiday" stories, but more are winter ones, rather than Christmas.

An eclectic bunch of tales that can be read at any time, but I'd recommend NOT at bedtime! You might stop on one of the scary ones, and get some weird dreams as a consequence, like I did!

I didn't read them all, I will be honest, but the ones I read were very good, or excellent. Just on the short side. but 23 stories across 360 odd pages is never going to produce novel length books.

4 stars

Oh Satan...You Devil!!!
Side-splitting, hysterical, lighthearted, sassy, and smexy read.
This has to be one of the top hilarious books from Ms. Peterman's.
Bad boy Satan wants his HEA, and being the Harbinger of Evil, he know just how to get get it. Of course, with a little help from his certifiable family.
A total must read to heat up this cold winter.
But recommend you read Fashionably Flawed First!!!
  
I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

This book is so much fun!

The mc Sadie gets embroiled in winter activities and murder when a snooty homegrown chef takes an ice pick to the chest.

Pretty much everyone who met the dingus chef had a reason to want him dead so Sadie has her hands full when a friend us fingered as a suspect.
