Melody and Beat - two intricately linked parts of a hit song. And the children of feuding, epic rock musicians. When Beat Dawson and Melody Gallard are approached by a production company to get their mother's band back together by Christmas - after 30 years of estrangement - they themselves become a sensation more stirring than their parents' chart topping songs.

This was a fun steamy read. It has all the hallmarks of a Christmas romcom, with the deprecating with of Melody offset by the protective, brooding sexiness of Beat. We have the polar opposite rock stars - Octavia in her gold and white chic apartment and Trina barefoot in a hippie commune - the behind the scenes sexual tension of the production company, the well written sex scenes themselves, and a fun romp around New York followed by hordes of adoring fans.

This isn't all fluff and influencers: we also see the less welcome side to instant fame, learn family secrets, and explore the different relationships between mothers and their children.

But it is mostly a fun, fluff read! I smashed this out in a day.

'Wreck the Hall is a fun-loving book that keeps you guessing, and you just want more.....
If you love romantic, passionate steamy rom-coms set in New York at Christmas time, this is the book for you. I was hooked & I couldn't wait to find out what happens. I loved the drama between Mel and Beat, but the chemistry was electrifying.
Thank you to Netgalley and Harpercollins for the opportunity to read this ARC.
