Derek needs a fake boyfriend for Christmas — and Luke needs money to save his family’s bar. It seems like the perfect arrangement, but when the holiday spirit sparks feelings they never expected, could love take them by surprise? Hiring a boyfriend for Christmas? What could go wrong?
Derek is facing yet another Christmas where his life feels out of control. He has a new career that doesn’t feel like his, and parents who would just love to see him settled down. All he needs is a temporary buffer for the parties he has to attend, and for his parents to leave him alone. Enter, Luke.
Luke is twenty-thousand dollars short for the renovations on Halligans; his family’s bar in New York’s Financial District. A favor for a buddy has him agreeing to play the part of boyfriend to a guy with more money than sense.
But when the spirit of Christmas works its magic on the two men, and they begin to fall for each other, Derek runs scared, and Luke needs space.
It doesn’t matter what obstacles you throw in the way of love, or how much you run in the other direction, because, when you’re least expecting it, whether you want it or not, love happens anyway.

The Love Happens Anyway cover looks adorable, I think the story could well be my favorite Christmas romance.
There are just too many great Christmas stories to choose from, I can’t pick just one.
Christmas Romance books, love reading them.
Thanks for the opportunity!
The Christmas Throwaway!
Mr naughty list by Leta Blake is aone of my favorites!!!
It’s too hard to pick a favorite Christmas story but I can tell you that you and these other authors have written ones that I love: Victoria Sue, Ali Ryecart, Con Riley and probably several others that I’m forgetting at the moment.
Don’t have a favorite. I love reading them all. But the Christmas Throwaway is a good one.
Having just finished it, I think Love Happens Anyway is my favorite winter romance!
I reread Love Happens Anyway every holiday season!
Haven’t read any holiday romance books
Just finished it but the best winter novel is A Reason to Stay. Maybe cause I loved the sanctuary novels & wanted Victor’s story.
If it’s a Christmas story, I will read it. I read them year round!
I think my favorite is a tie between Christmas Throwaway and Satan Claus is Coming to Town by Catherine Lievens. It depends on my Christmas mood.
I’ve been rereading some of the books I really enjoy. It is hard to pick just one author! I loved your Montana series, I am currently rereading Aiden Bates, love Lucy Lennox and May Archer. Ann Katrine Byrde & Nalina Singh
I read tok much to pick a favorite but Christmas and winter Romance are some of my favorite
There are too many great Christmas romances to choose from. My favorite is always the one I read last. Thank you for your contributions.
The Christmas Throwaway is the first that comes to mind. There are so many others.
It’s a toss up between The Christmas Throwaway by RJ Scott and Backwoods Asylum by Megan Derr for my favourite winter themed romance. I do love reading all the new ones every year though so that is subject to change 😀
I don’t really have a favorite Christmas romance, they all bring their own holiday magic.
There are so many good holiday stories. Of yours, The Christmas Throwaway has stuck with me.
I love all Christmas stories, but The Christmas Throwaway will always be a favourite
Merry Measure by Lily Morton. That book just lifts my spirits and Amsterdam is one of my favourite cities.
Dear Santa by KC Wells. The book is set in an area of London I live in, can’t help to love it.
There are so many good Christmas books out. I just love them and snap them all up.
I love Love Happens Anyway! That cheeky snowman on the cover drew me in in the first place but the story quickly landed in my Favorites folder on my kindle. I love the fake dating into real love trope. So good!
Con Riley ‘His Last Christmas in London.’
How am I supposed to pick my favorite winter story? There are WAY too many to choose from, or really I should say that I have read too many. I enjoyed both Breakfast Included by L.C. Chase and Stop the Wedding by RJ Scott.
Two of my favorites are yours which I love Christmas Throwaway and Deefur and the Great Mistletoe Incident.
Another of my favorites is by by AKM Miles Something More for Santa.
If I were to recommend my favorite RJ Scott Christmas books, I’d include all of my 5 stars rated ones;
Snow in Montana
Home for Christmas
Angel in a Bookshop
The Road to Frosty Hollow
Jesse’s Christmas
The Christmas Throwaway
And
Love Happens Anyway.
Love, hope and all the ‘feels!’
Fave might be Love Actually 🤣
The Christmas Throwaway is my favorite.
My favourite is Something From Tiffany ‘s by Melissa Hill it’s such a wonderfully beautiful Christmasmassy love story. Thanks so much 💜
A villain for Christmas abd the northpole city series are probably my favorite winter books
The Christmas Throwaway immediately came to mind so I will choose that even though there are many other great books.
One of my favorite Christmas stories actually is Love Happens Anyway! I’ve reread it, still enjoy it! Love your stories, thank you for sharing them!
It’s difficult to choose my favorite winter romance, but I’ll go with Roe Horvat’s Ugly (Winter Sun Book 1). Sweet and SO hot!
Dear Santa by KC Wells
The Holiday Disaster by Rye Cox
I can’t pick a favorite, but I love all the collabs authors do for the season.
I love most Christmas stories but my all time favorite is Christmas Throwaway. It is one you can read over and over.
Devil in Winter comes to mind.
Like a lot of other readers there’s so much choice to choose from. Christmas Prince, The Texas series and The Christmas Throwaway, Love Happens Anyway to name a few and asking us to choose ONE is like finding a needle in a haystack, you and many other Authors write so many really good Christmas stories it becomes impossible. A rollercoaster ride of emotional, angst, loving and funny, suspense and so much more.
All I can say is THANK YOU ALL for giving so much JOY amidst the sadness that’s around today
My favorite Christmas/Winter romance is COLOR OF YOU by C.S. Poe. It’s one of my most re-listened to audiobooks because I adore the story AND Grey Boudreaux does a fabulous job of bringing it to life.
North Pole series by Charlie Cochet.
Mr Sparkles by you. I always re-read this book! When
Love Flue In by Lillian Francis is my second favourite.
My favorite is The Remaking of Corbin Wale by Roan Parrish. Looking forward to reading Love Happens Anyway!
So far, I like Lily Morton’s Merry Measure and Jamie Fessenden’s The Christmas Wager.
I’ve enjoyed so many winter romances! One favorite is Lucy Lennox’s A Very Marian Christmas and also Annabeth Albert’s the Geek who Saved Christmas.
