Description

Laurel Darby is no stranger to wealth, but her upbringing was defined by cold formality rather than holiday magic. Having never experienced a true Christmas, she has navigated life without the warmth of traditions or the comfort of family connection. That is, until she enters the orbit of Dallas Hayes. When Dallas invites Laurel to join the Hayes clan for the holidays, she trades her stiff, hollow traditions for the raucous, heart-filled chaos of a crowded farmhouse. For Laurel, the transition is equal parts enchanting and overwhelming. Surrounded by the unfamiliar noise of a loving family, she finds herself bracing against the very joy she has always secretly craved. Dallas is determined to rewrite Laurel’s narrative, turning the season into a sanctuary of warmth and acceptance. Between crackling bonfire gatherings, quiet stolen moments in the cold night air, and the soft glow of endless fairy lights, they embark on a journey of discovery. This cozy, sapphic holiday romance explores the healing power of being truly seen and the profound intimacy of building your own traditions. It is a tender, heartwarming reminder that the best gift one can receive is a place where you finally feel at home.

Sweet tidings

This was a spicy, cute catch up with the MCs. Told only in Laurels POV. The spice was sexy fun. I enjoyed this quick read into some beautiful characters. Only second book by Katie Trapped that I have read, but already a fan and went to purchase her contemporary romances. I look forward to more.

Perfect Christmas!

An ode to body positivity and Sapphic love is what this little novella is in a nutshell. I loved these characters already in A Shot of Her, and now they are definitely on the way to their happy ever after.

Sweet and sexy!

A Christmas with Her is the newest offering from Katie Trapp and her first Christmas novella! If you've read A Shot of Her, you'll be pleased to be reunited with Laurel and Dallas. If you haven't, this is easily read as a standalone story! If you're looking for something short, sweet and sexy as hell to read over the holidays, look no further! This is Laurel and Dallas’ first Christmas together and they're heading to see Dallas’ big family, and I mean extremely large, compared to Laurel's tiny family. Laurel is understandably nervous and wants to make a good impression. She also is a little freaked out about having to stay in the tiny camper Dallas surprises her with right before they leave. Without giving too much away, I can safely say that the family welcomes Laurel with open arms and the camper is put to VERY good use during their alone time. Especially when Laurel wears the outfit from the front cover! (Illustrated by Katie herself!) Trust me when I say you do not want to miss that scene! Go grab this sweet, sassy, sexy novella today! It will cheer up even the grinches among us!

Sweet meeting the family at Christmas novella

This novella takes place after A Shot of Her and continues the lovely journey of Laurel and Dallas. The novella is about Laurel going with Dallas to spend the holidays with Dallas’ family. Laurel is not used to large, boisterous family gatherings so has some trepidation and is worried about fitting in. Dallas’ family are wonderful though, so this is fun, low angst slice of life. I enjoyed spending time with these characters again.
