DOWN UNDER HOLIDAY SPIRIT #mmromance #mmholidayspirit #giveaways

holiday-spirit-with-authors-twitter-v3
Thank you so much for joining me over the last few weeks and meeting some of my favourite Australian and New Zealand authors of m/m romance. I hope you’ve enjoyed hearing their Christmas stories, viewing the clips, and maybe gathered a recipe or two.
And hopefully you’ve won a prize from all the daily giveaways. There’s one more daily giveaway to go and still time to enter the Rafflecopter, so make sure you check out the giveways below.
I want to wish you all a very joyous holiday seasons, no matter how you spend your day. I hope you are surrounded by friends and family, and lots of love.
I’ll be spending time with my family. This year it will be my husband and our two daughters, my mum, my brother, his wife and their three young boys, plus a few extras. It will be a day of eating, drinking and swimming. We will exchange presents, plus Skype with the family members who can’t be present. Mainly it’s a time of relaxation and enjoying each other’s company. On Boxing Day, with no cooking to do, I’ll definitely be putting my feet up and hopefully spending the day with some good books.
Here’s my Christmas story from last year, if you’re looking for something from your holiday reading list. It’s an Aussie ‘orphan’ Christmas.

Blurb:  The Proof is in the Pudding

TheProofIsInthePudding_432Steve never expected making a Christmas pudding would bring him the man of his dreams.
Steve Hayes is away with a group of friends who are spending the Christmas break together. He’s determined to put his two-timing ex-boyfriend in the past, and enjoy his week away. Steve is happily surprised to find that Corey Oh, the guy he’s been admiring from afar, has been invited along too. But Steve knows there’s no way someone as wonderful as Corey, who could have any man he wanted, would be interested in him.
However, thanks to a misadventure with a Christmas pudding, Steve will find that dreams can come true.

      It’s been a good start to summer already and I’m looking forward to spending time with my family over the school break. I’ll probably be itching for the kids to get back to their studies before too long but I’ll make the most of it until them 🙂 I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the posts.
