The one thing Luna wants for the holiday season is to take Ryan to her home colony of Pearlestria to celebrate their first Winter Solstice together. But when the chief mate of her pirate crew gives her a surprise gift that requires more work than she bargained for, Luna is forced to change plans and take Ryan to shore instead.
With only days until the celebration, Luna must summon some holiday magic and figure out how to turn the world’s worst present into something great for the seas. If she can’t, she will miss her favorite holiday and the chance to surprise Ryan with the gift his merman heart desires, ultimately losing her Winter Solstice cheer.

I was hired to proofread this book. The only aspects of the story that I influenced for sure were the spelling and grammar. If you feel that my connection to the book makes my review untrustworthy, so be it, but this is my honest review.
It's Luna's first Christmas since finding her mate, Ryan, and she wants everything to be perfect both on land and in the sea. Of course, there are problems with that. For one thing, she's not yet comfortable using her ocean magic yet and she doesn't feel like she can leave her fleet of ships to spend some quality time with Ryan alone for the holidays. And all of that is with good reason.
I found myself getting extremely frustrated with Ren because he's just making Luna's life more problematic than it needs to be, and his schemes are interfering with her happy holidays. And being a bit of a perfectionist, Luna seems incapable of stepping back and letting others help. I spent most of the story hoping for the perfect Christmas for Luna, but pretty much knowing it wasn't going to work out quite like I hoped. In spite of that, this book still provided most of the feel good cheesiness that I want from a holiday novel.
Overall I give Holiday Waters 4.387 stars. - Katie
