A Merry Little Meet Cute by Julie Murphy

The whole idea of adding porn stars and behind the scenes staff of porn, asking them to keep their jobs secret, and working on one of these movies? Brilliant and funny. As someone who loves romance, I sure do HATE Hallmark and Women's Network romance movies, so I haven't seen one in a long time. You get a simple, chaste kiss, and that's it.

Because lets me honest - Hallmark movies are as wholesome and family friendly as they come. The situations Bee and Nolan get themselves into throughout the book lead to some laughs, and even the side characters who are part of the industry add a little something to the awkwardness of the situation they landed in. Which makes it all the more wonderful, and hilarious. It blends the very popular Hallmark wholesome Christmas movies with the adult entertainment world - in secret, of course. (Sept.The story in A Merry Little Meet Cute is great. Agent: John Cusick, Folio Literary Management.

Readers wanting romance with substance should look elsewhere, but for cheery holiday fluff this works just fine. There’s a lot of promise to this amusing premise and the authors admirably touch on many feminist themes, but Bee and Nolan’s narrative voices are virtually indistinguishable, and the romance itself remains disappointingly surface level. As chemistry ignites between Bee and Nolan both on- and off-screen, however, it becomes impossible for them to resist each other. Hardly anyone else on set knows of Bee’s other profession, and though she’s proud of her career as a plus-sized sex worker, Bee knows it would be catastrophic if her secret leaked to the conservative streaming service producing the movie. Though he’s determined to remain as “pure as driven snow” throughout production, this proves difficult when the producer unknowingly casts Nolan’s favorite porn star, Bianca von Honey (real name Bee Hobbes), as the leading lady. Notorious former boy band star Nolan Shaw is on a mission to rehabilitate his playboy image by starring in a wholesome family Christmas movie. Bestseller Murphy ( If the Shoe Fits) and Simone ( A Lesson in Thorns) take readers on a bumpy but enjoyable ride in this playful holiday romp.
