Second Down Scrooge by Lisa Suzanne
3.5
This was sweet, heartwarming, and packed with festive cheer—a great pick for cozy Christmas vibes. Austin and the Kelly’s second-chance journey was emotional and hopeful, with a sprinkle of spice to heat things up. The co-parenting dynamic was handled with care, and their baby added so many adorable moments.
It was an enjoyable read, like sipping on hot chocolate with marshmallows and a dash of cinnamon spice. Perfect for fans of Christmas-themed romances looking for a balance of sweetness and steam.

My Review:
🇺🇸 This was exactly what I needed for a dark, twisted, and spicy Christmas romance! Chloe and Jack’s dynamic was equal parts steamy and sinister, with just the right amount of holiday vibes to make it feel festive in the most unconventional way.
Jack, as a firefighter with a secret obsession, was darkly captivating—his protectiveness blurring the line between love and something much more intense. Chloe, on the other hand, was a perfect mix of sass and vulnerability, making their chemistry both explosive and compelling.
The stalker romance trope might not be for everyone, but if you’re into a darker, kinkier take on holiday love stories, this book absolutely delivers. It’s a rollercoaster of tension, passion, and danger wrapped up in a holiday bow. Plus, the spice level? Off the charts! Jack's "secret Santa" vibes were twisted yet oddly endearing, and the plot kept me entertained from start to finish.
This isn’t your cozy, Hallmark-style Christmas romance—it’s the dark, sizzling alternative you didn’t know you needed. While some parts might have been over the top, it was exactly what I expected for this kind of story, and I had so much fun reading it.
