REVIEW: Cabin Nights (Christmas Novella) by Ashley John
'Oxford University student, Ben thinks a skiing holiday in the French Alps is his idea of hell, so when his best friend, Jonny suggests they spend Christmas there he isn’t impressed. Taking to the slopes like Bambi on ice, Ben isn't having much luck, until charming bearded beauty, Cal, comes crashing towards him in a flurry of snow at fifty miles an hour. From the moment Cal offers to help Ben get back on his skis, the attraction is instant and Ben is convinced that a man as perfect as Cal is out of his league. Womanizer Jonny wastes no time asking out a girl he meets on the slopes and he makes her promise to bring along a friend to keep Ben occupied that night in the Après-Ski Bar. When that friend turns out to be Cal, he's given the opportunity of a lifetime to wine and dine with a man of model like beauty, with a charismatic personality to match. When Cal invites Ben back to his Cabin, they find themselves trapped in an extreme whiteout and with the men forced to spend the Christmas holidays together, they quickly find they are doing more than roasting marshmallows next to the warm and inviting fire.'
REVIEW
So a quick review for a quick read! I bought Cabin Nights because it sounded like a quick read, about Christmas, with two hot guys, in a cabin, with snow and it was only 99p...
I got exactly what I wanted!
There’s a scene in a hot tub, that's right, it was DAMN hot! Gave me the FuFu Flutters something awful! Cal and Ben meet while skiing, Cal is an American traveller and Ben is a student from England, you wouldn't think they'd be match but they have great chemistry!
There’s a cosy little cabin they get stuck in and they snuggle up in front of the fire and make cookies together, it’s just SO lovely!! All the snow and the setting and the characters, it was just such a gorgeous read to fill an evening. If you like big, hot, bearded men then you will love Cal, he is very loveable and Ben is just as sweet!
I got completely lost in this story, even in the short amount of time I was reading it. Ashley painted the perfect picture of the snowy cabin, I almost felt like I was there, or I at least wanted to be!!
I would read so many more books like this, even out of the festive season (I’m a Christmas whore though), it was just a pure, sexy, joy to read! If you’re feeling chilly in these winter nights, this book will definitely warm you up!
