    I’m looking for romance book recs for the fall/halloween and winter/christmas vibe that don’t read like a crappy hallmark movie – I do tend to prefer my romance to have some depth, so if the plot is something to do with grampy’s family bakery going under and his granddaughter from the city who always loved the place as a child must return to save it; not my vibe lol. Not to say I won’t read it, but that’s not rlly what I’m looking for. I prefer deeper/darker person themes – recovering from injury or personal trauma and that sorta thing.

    Some romances I have enjoyed for reference:
    • Boys of Tommen series (not rlly strictly romance but I loved the depth)
    • Unsteady/Unloved (hockey)
    • chestnut Springs (cowboy)
    • Flight and Glory series (military)

    Honestly tho I’m open to anything so if you have a holiday book you really loved, throw it my way, I’ll read anything once lol

      Season’s Schemings by Katie Bailey. She just got dumped on television, he’s a hockey player who needs a green card >!(the book admits that’s a flimsy excuse and he really just needs to pay a lawyer to fasttrack forms but he’s also a bit sad)!<. They meet in Vegas and she drunkenly asks him to pose as her new boyfriend to the Christmas gathering that her ex will be at. He escalates the deal to them getting married. Did I mention that he’s the ex-boyfriend’s favorite hockey player and this is totally gonna ruin that man’s enjoyment of the sport…
