Review A JOLLY POLY CHRISTMAS
A Jolly Poly Christmas: In Chicago is a wild ride! From the moment I saw the author's note, I knew I was in for something unique, and Latoya Nicole absolutely delivered. This book isn't for the faint of heart; it's unapologetically spicy, featuring a level of explicitness that's definitely not for everyone. But if you're looking for a steamy holiday romance with a healthy dose of humor and a surprisingly heartwarming core, then look no further.
The story revolves around Jayme and her relationships with Cooper and Caleb, two brothers who are incredibly devoted to her. The polyamorous dynamic is handled with a refreshing honesty and transparency, something I appreciated. While I personally wouldn’t choose this lifestyle, the author expertly portrays the love and commitment between the characters, making their unconventional relationship believable and even endearing. It's not just about the physical intimacy; there's a genuine emotional connection that shines through.
What really surprised me was the strong emphasis on genuine love and support. It’s not just a whirlwind of sex scenes; the characters navigate real-life challenges and conflicts, making their triumphs all the more satisfying. Jayme’s strength and agency are particularly compelling; she's not a damsel in distress, but a woman who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go after it. The way Cooper, in particular, dotes on Jayme and prioritizes her happiness really resonated with me. It's rare to find a male character in this kind of story who is so clearly devoted to his partner's well-being, and it adds a depth of emotion that elevates the narrative.
The Chicago setting adds a vibrant backdrop to the story, giving it a unique atmosphere that feels both gritty and glamorous. It's a character in itself, contributing to the overall feeling of the book. The fast pace kept me completely hooked from beginning to end; I couldn't put it down! I was genuinely invested in the characters and their journey, rooting for them to overcome any obstacles.
While some reviewers mentioned a few minor grammatical errors, they didn't detract from my enjoyment. The story's energy and the captivating characters more than made up for any minor imperfections. There's a satisfying resolution, a clear ending that ties everything up nicely, something that's not always the case in polyamorous romances. It leaves you feeling happy for the characters and with a sense of completion.
Overall, A Jolly Poly Christmas: In Chicago is a bold, fun, and surprisingly heartfelt read. It’s a spicy holiday treat that’s both exciting and surprisingly touching, making it a memorable addition to my Christmas romance collection. Just be prepared for some seriously steamy scenes! If you're open to exploring a unique and passionate love story, I highly recommend giving it a try.
