Fabled take hold of-up
It's years since I read most of the books in this series (2013). This has made me not only desire to re-read them but also the couple of newer ones that weren't out dorsum then.
This is a fabled fiddling catch-up and Nikolai still remains my favourite. I really need to re-read his books yet again.
Dimitri It's a Wonderful Life: A sweet moment in time from Dimitri's signal of view. Benny is pregnant and they are moving in
This is an anthology of short stories in Roxie Rivera'south Her Russian Protector series. In the reading order of this series, this anthology is #3.5--meant to be read afterwards Ivan, Dimitri and Yuri and before Nikolai and Sergei. Nosotros get where-are-they-now sweetness and sexy stories about Dimitri, Ivan and Yuri and we get teasers for Nikolai, Sergei, Kostya, Alexei, Danila, and Vasya.Dimitri It's a Wonderful Life: A sweet moment in time from Dimitri'due south point of view. Benny is meaning and they are moving into their new dwelling.
Alexei The Luxury Sleigh Ride: Alexei and his future heroine, Shay, make a connection i evening, leaving him aching for something more.
Vasya From Russia, With Love: Earlier in the serial we got a hint of the M/Chiliad story that was evolving between Vasya and Ty. Told from Ty's point of view, he and Vasya are on the cusp of starting a relationship on Vasya's terms.
Nikolai All I Desire For Christmas: Told from Nikolai's point of view. He is hosting a Christmas party at his restaurant, Samovar. Watching Vivian and interacting with her, the unrequited love and the seemingly hopeless situation brings sad, angsty feelings.
Kostya Ix Ladies Dancing: Told from Kostya's indicate of view nosotros acquire more about the mob cleaner and his attraction for his neighbor, Holly.
Danila Toys For Tots: A younger fellow member of Nikolai'south crew, Danila is playing Santa Claus for the troubled family next door. The oldest of the children, Macy, is 18 and Danny is sweet on her.
Yuri My Favorite Things: This story shows Yuri and Lena jubilant their starting time Christmas together in Russia. This is steamy and sweet.
Ivan Five Gilded Rings: This is Ivan'due south starting time Christmas with Erin and he's ready to suggest.
Sergei A Bright, New Beginning: When guarding Vivian for Nikolai, Sergei meets Bianca and becomes infatuated. But Bianca proves to be a tough nut to crack.
These stories are mostly a tease. They are really short and only whet the ambition for more. Having already read Ivan, Dimitri, Yuri, Nikolai, Sergei and The Connolly Brother's--In Kelly's Corner and In Jack's Arms, I've been curious about Vasya and Ty's story. Ty'southward character has been established as confident, self and brutally honest. But Vasya remains a mystery. The rest of these short stories are all told from the Russian hero'south POV--except Vasya'south. Nosotros are given a tiny glimpse of his dominant, controlling (must exist a Russian mobster thing) personality, simply we still aren't in his head. And so I'm dying to read their volume.
I'm not entirely sure how I'thousand going to similar Danila'southward book considering that they are young'uns, only I KNOW Kostya's is going to be awesome. He'south bad. He's the hitman and the cleaner and if anyone on the crew has blood on their hands, it's Kostya. I can't wait to see how he makes things work with Holly. Roxie Rivera can't write fast enough--I'm totally hooked.

It was amazing reading this. I cried a petty, laughed a bit and sighed more than times than I can count. Information technology gave and then many glimpses of what is to come, I'm fifty-fifty more than excited to keep reading the series.Plus, I loved the glimpses at the heart of these big burly Russians.

, unfortunately it takes place after
, and though the spoiler was cypher surprising... it made me realize that the potential for other spoilers were there, and so I had to finish reading... which meant I of course needed to swoop right in to this one. I'm going to try to leave Kelly'southward Corner for a little while longer, and read something completely unrelated, but it is then difficult to leave a book I've already started.I honey the footling novellas, because they are generally 100% from the fella'south point of view. And what can I say? I'm a sucker for their insecurities and such like that.
Dimitri - It's a Wonderful Life: An adorable slice of life in the Dimitri/Benny world. They are moving into their new house, and they both desire to surprise each other. I actually practice get warm and fuzzies cheers to Dimitri.
Alexei - The Luxury Sleigh Ride: Alexei is a character I don't retrieve meeting earlier. It's possible that I did, and just not remember him. Either way, I practice rather look forward to his story.
Vasya - From Russia, With Dearest: Oh my goodness, I wasn't sure if we'd really get to see Vasya and Ty's story (as I hadn't looked at the rest of the series titles), considering not all authors are by and large brave plenty to throw a M/M story into their Rom Serial. I cannot wait until their story. Vasya is such a mystery.
Nikolai - All I Want For Christmas: Things are getting closer and closer to the explosion that volition be their human relationship. It makes me smile.
Kostya - Nine Ladies Dancing: I really look forward to Kostya'south book. It will be quite interesting I'thousand sure. He is not a good boy. Simply ooh it'll be an interesting ride.
Danila - Toys For Tots: A very immature member of Nikolai's crew, peculiarly considering so far, our boys in the series accept all been honing in on 40. I foresee quite a few mistakes existence made before he finds his feet.
Yuri - My Favorite Things: Sweet, but Yuri really is all about the wink and cash.
Ivan - 5 Golden Rings: Erin was less annoying in this ane, however... she still merely rubs me incorrect. Ivan thought about his back hurting because of how much he had to move the tree, and it merely nailed information technology that I however think she is a spoiled brat.
Sergei - A Bright, New Beginning: This will exist a fun one. Oh yep.

'Information technology's a Wonderful Life' Dimitri and Bennie prepare for the baby... beautiful but kinda boring.
'A Luxury Sleigh Ride' Alexie and Shay. He'south an ex underground fighter who at present owns several luxury car dealerships. Shay is one of the ladies who cleans the business at dark. I really enjoyed this but it is ultimately a teaser for Alexie's book #8
'From Russia, with Love' Ty and Vasya. MM.
These stories are either trivial teasers for upward coming books or rather boring extra epilogues to books I've already read.'Information technology's a Wonderful Life' Dimitri and Bennie prepare for the infant... cute just kinda deadening.
'A Luxury Sleigh Ride' Alexie and Shay. He's an ex underground fighter who at present owns several luxury car dealerships. Shay is i of the ladies who cleans the business organization at night. I really enjoyed this just it is ultimately a teaser for Alexie's book #8
'From Russia, with Love' Ty and Vasya. MM. Ty is Lena's business partner from 'Yuri'. Ty is a playboy, but Vasya wants something more lasting. Again, it's a teaser for an upcoming book. But Still enjoyable.
'All I Want for Christmas' Nikolai and Vivian. There's been a LOT of foreshadowing for their book and this teaser gets a wee bit tedious. I most feel like skipping their book(south)... but I know I'll read it sooner or later.
'9 Dancing Ladies' Kostya and Holly. Kostya lives a low profile in a suburban neighbourhood. He has a friendship with one of his neighbours, Holly and secretly covets her for more. But what would she think if she new he was part owner of a strip club and had ties to the Russian Mob? Withal, he is there when she needs him and kicks her no-expert date to the curb. Some other teaser, but I actually practise wait forward to this one!
Still reading;
'Toys for Tots' Danila and Maci
Maci is an eighteen year one-time living next door to Danny with her dead trounce dad, worn out mom and niggling siblings. Danny wants to give them a good Christmas so he makes sure the dead beat dad will stay at the casino and drops off some surprise gifts for the kids. It's pretty short and beautiful but nothing much.
'My Favorite Things' Yuri and Lena
Reads like a extra epilogue
'Five Gold Rings' Ivan and Erin
Some other read like an actress epilogue... blah blah apathetic
'A Brilliant, New Start' Sergie and Bianca.
This is too a picayune introduction to another book in the series, yous guessed it, Sergie's volume. Pretty boring really.
I beloved how all these alpha Russian domineering men love and protect their mates. The female mates may succumbed to their dominant partners but they are pretty tough themselves. These females are alpha cloth. All these characters lives crisscross like everyday people. Information technology's like shooting fish in a barrel for me to love all these characters with all their past traumas and all that their futures promise.
Beloved comes in wavesI dearest how all these blastoff Russian domineering men dearest and protect their mates.

A fun read nearly get-go Christmases together and also stories about new romances in the works. A great addition to the series. 😍
Enjoyed the follow upwardly in the characters lives of the first novels in the serial. Will there be a novel on Niels?

Full review:
I've read all the full current books in Roxie Rivera'due south Her Russian Protector serial and so when I was looking at the remainder of the series to see if I wanted to read any of the novella'south A Very Russian Christmas stood out the most for me as it was a little bit of a wrap upwards for the kickoff three books in the series {Ivan, Dimitri & Yuri} and a bit of a prequel for the other six books fifty-fifty though Nikolai and Sergei's books are already out now I still found it an enjoyable read, especially for the side by side books in the series.
It's a Wonderful Life, Dimitri and Benny have bought their own house and Benny is heavily pregnant and they're and then super happy almost the side by side steps in their life they tin't help but tear each others clothes off. Sweet but rather sickly in a nice way!
The Luxury Sleigh Ride is Alexei and Shay'south story and I am oh so very excited for this one. It was super sweet and lovely and I tin can't expect for their actually full length story. Out sometime this year!
From Russia With Honey is Vasya and Ty'due south story and information technology was very sexy and sweet for a m/m which isn't my usual loving cup of tea.
All I Want For Christmas is Nikolai and Vivian'southward story and I'm so glad I read their story earlier this or it would have annoyed me because you don't quite go why Nikolai won't make a motion but it's nonetheless a sweet introduction to these two. Who are currently my favourite couple in the series.
Nine Ladies Dancing is the prepare-up to Kostya and Holly's book and was a really sweet and interesting read considering up until now we haven't seen as well much of Kostya. He's been bit of a mystery and I like the set-up for his book very much. Excited for July 2014!
Toys for Tots is Danila and Macy'south story and while I really loved their introduction it was so sweet and heartbreaking and I take my fingers crossed that their story turns out alright in the finish, I'm not sure about this one considering Macy is very young and Danila isn't that much older, nigh vii years I think and then I don't know if Ms Rivera volition do their story young or make them wait and grow up a bit. Either way their story is meant to be out this twelvemonth.
My Favourite Things is Yuri and Lena and it was a very Yuri and Lena story. I don't know how else to depict this one.
V Gilt Rings is Ivan and Erin, another 1 which is sweetness and a little flake sickly just however lovely and not unexpected either.
A Bright New Start is of class the showtime to something betwixt Sergei and Bianca which I did relish even though I've read their full story. Which I enjoyed an do recommend.
Forth with the entire series.
A Very Russian Christmas is a great read whether yous're a fan of Ms Rivera's Her Russian Protector series or not and I didn't find it to be over Christmas-y either. Then I could read information technology and savour it outside of the Christmas catamenia.

There where some grammar bug in the novel that hopefully will be fixed in a later edition. The glimpse into the lives of the characters for her three promised upcoming books really wets your ambition for them. The bad part about the collection exciting the reader for these novels is that the author is already a yr by her stated publish appointment. Unfortunately, co-ordinate to her website, readers take longer to wait because all three books publication dates are at present listed as to be determined. My hope is we will not have to await much longer. ...more

Information technology'south just a shame that we get introduced to some of these couples who some readers have been looking forward to for years and it will be another few years before we always become their books. I would recommend if you non read Kostya'southward, Vasya's or Danila'south stories. They are only teases of their stories that we most probable won't see for another few years. (Yep I will admit I'thou bellyaching and aggravated that an writer volition ready release dates, simply withal they get constantly pushed back. For example we should've already gotten Kostya'due south volume in 2014!)
