Description
It all started with a game of Truth or Dare…
It’s bad enough I got arrested for prostitution on Christmas Eve. Alleged prostitution, mind you. I didn’t do it. Of course I didn’t. The cops say I offered up a certain sex act for a $5 gasoline gift card, but honey?
My sex acts are worth way, way more.
So when I tried to explain what happened to the person who came and bailed me out of jail, she wasn’t exactly impressed.
Because it was my boyfriend’s mother.
Now, I got two boyfriends, so Murphy’s Law said it had to be the mother I hate the most. And she hates me right back. Even more now that I lost her son.
That’s right. Where in the hell are Joe and Trevor? It’s Christmas Eve, and I keep getting pictures on social media showing Joe and Trevor all oiled up in g-strings that look like candy canes, dancing with a bunch of well-coiffed older women.
I, on the other hand, am wearing Santa pants, flip flops, and smell like jail cell pee.
That game of Truth or Dare turns out to be way more dangerous than anyone expected.
And our savior? It ain’t the baby Jesus. Not the three wise men. No little drummer boy. Not even the donkey that carried the Virgin Mary on its back while she howled for an epidural.
Nope. Can you guess?
That’s right.
Mavis the Chicken.
Can she help us out of this clustercluck?

Love this series!
5By Ned1364I have read all the Random books and love them all! Erotically funny! Keep them coming Julia!Lots to Love about This 'Random' Gift!
5By kek219The latest in Julia Kent's 'Random' series is an unexpected holiday gift! Darla, Joe and Trevor are once again up to their usual antics. This time around a game of 'Truth or Dare' ends up landing Darla in jail while her men are fill-in strippers at a holiday party. Throw in Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer nipple clamps, a homeless guy with a pet chicken, a case of eel-induced food poisoning, and a 'hover mother' and you've got the makings of a Christmas holiday that can only happen to the 'Random' crew. It's another rollicking adventure for these characters. Every time I think Ms. Kent has exhausted the list of all the things that could go wrong (and right) for these three, she keeps surprising me. Loved it. Can't wait for the next installment! **An advanced copy was provided by the author for an honest review**Hilariously Sexy!!!
5By jbebout1295Julia Kent has given us all an extraordinary Random offering this holiday season! Merry Random Christmas is the eighth book in the New York Times bestselling Random series, and could not have been more entertaining! Once I started reading it, I quite literally could not put it down. I read it all in one sitting. The characters in the Random series are all so real and complex and flawed and crazy and funny and so beautiful in their imperfection. You just can’t help but fall in love with them or to become invested in their lives. This book hooks you right from the first page read and it never slows down. It is completely and utterly riveting. I was glad I was reading the book alone so no one thought I was crazy laughing out loud at every other page. That’s not to say there weren’t also scenes that threatened to burn up my tablet because there definitely were. This book really had it all. Overall, I found it to be compelling, humorous, intriguing, romantic, and completely enthralling. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hilariously sexy read. * I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.
