A PopSugar Best New Holiday Romance Book of 2022! Who's naughty and nice at Riverwood Mall? In this hilarious YA holiday rom-com, two rivals get together to save their families' livelihoods, and Christmas, too! Chloe Kwon can't stand Peter Li. It's always been that way. Their families don't get along either: their parents operate rival restaurants in the Riverwood Mall food court—Korean food for the Kwons and Chinese food for the Lis. Now it's the holiday season and Chloe's the photographer at the mall's Santa's Village, and Peter works at the virtual reality North Pole experience right across the atrium. It's all Chloe can do to avoid Peter's smug, incredibly photogenic face. But it turns out the mall is about to be sold to a developer and demolished for condos. Eviction notices are being handed out right before Christmas. Their parents don't know what to do, and soon Chloe and Peter realize that the two of them need to join efforts to try to save the mall. Just when it seems like they can put aside their differences and work closely (very closely) together, they discover that the Kwon and Li feud goes far deeper than either of them realize...

Will fake boyfriends become the real deal this holiday? It's the most wonderful time of the year-except ex-Marine Logan is jobless and getting evicted. Worse, he's a new single dad with a stepson who hates him. A kid needs stability-not to mention presents under the tree-and Logan's desperate. Then he meets lonely Seth and makes a deal. Can Logan temporarily pretend to be live-in boyfriends to increase Seth's chances at a promotion? If it provides a roof over their heads for the holidays, hell yeah. Logan considers himself straight-he doesn't count occasional hookups with guys-but he can fake it. Besides, with his shy little smile, Seth is surprisingly sexy. Make that damn sexy. Shocked that Seth has only been with one man, Logan can't resist sweetening their deal to teach him the joys of casual sex. No strings attached. No feelings. No kissing. No falling for each other. Easy, right? The Christmas Deal by Keira Andrews is a steamy gay Christmas romance featuring fake boyfriends, bisexual awakening, a clueless single dad with an angry preteen, and of course a happy ending.
