I would like to thank Storm Publishing and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book early.

This is such a cute and fun feel good romance.
I only wish I'd read this during Christmas. It's cozy, lovely and absolutely wonderful. Completely loved the relationships, humour and the banter. This is my first book from Kristen Bailey and you can be sure that I will definitely read all her other books now!

I have reviewed We Three Kings for book recommendation and sales site LoveReading.co.uk. It has been chosen as a book of the month.

I enjoyed reading We Three Kings so much. I loved how our leading character was a woman who held a higher position in the IT department she worked for. The work environment for our characters seem to be very genuine and real between the boss and coworkers, they were like family. It all changed when management threw a curve ball at Maggie right before Christmas! The characters were the best and I loved getting to know each of the male leads families and their interactions with Maggie outside of work for this Christmas adventure of hers!

The premise of this was really cute and something a little different than what I’ve read before, so it held my attention well.

I’ll be honest though, I thought the main character was going to consider dating all of three guys, considering the title. I’m glad it wasn’t that but I did love all of the characters regardless. I almost enjoyed the tale of all their friendships more than the main romance, which is kind of rare for me.

Maggie was the adorable, quirky, and so kind that it was easy to understand why the guys thought of her as a friend as well as their boss. The way their relationships really bloomed as she got to know them more personally was so damn heartwarming, I began to feel a little attached to them. I think my favorite was Jasper because who he seemed to be and who he really was, well it was yet another reminder that you really don’t know what someone’s life is like and shouldn’t be quick to judge.

I loved the way this was split up in different acts, too, each one their own adventure.

While I was able to guess what the ending would be, I enjoyed the journey nonetheless and still had a few things really surprise me along the way.

The one thing that might trip some people up is that she is technically into someone that reports to her at work. Had it been a guy who was the boss, that might not be as palatable.

But if you're looking for a really funny book with a great cast of characters that will give you all the cozy, warm holiday feelings, look no further!

Another great story set at Christmas by Ms. Bailey. This book was perfect for the holiday season. Watching this band of four IT nerds who work day in day out with each other find who each other are behind the scenes. Maggie, who is spending Christmas alone is invited to each coworker’s holiday plans. This band of brothers who have worked together for years really don’t know much about one another. Spending one on one time with each man Maggie learns more about their lives outside of work. She has only spent the holidays quietly with her parents in the past. She gets one wild adventure acting as a plus one for different events. Finding love and lifelong friendships along the way. Thank you to NetGalley and Storm publishing for this free advanced copy. I am leaving this review voluntarily

An adorable holiday read!

With her parents traveling, IT manager Maggie is going to be alone for the holidays. A trio of three very different men who are not only her work team but also her friends aren't going to let that happen.  Frank, Jasper, and Leo adore and respect her. They appreciate all she does to support them and make them feel valued in a company that doesn't seem to respect their role.  Each man offers for her to spend some time with them and their respective families over the holiday. From a "fake date" at a wedding,, to a party at posh family estate, and finally, spending Christmas on a farm family, Maggie gets to know each of them in a new and different way.

Through each visit, Maggie learns more about each man and they about her - their support of each other is fierce. What the men don't know is that Maggie is also grappling with the decision she needs to make in the New Year - which person on the teams position can be eliminated for redundancy?  In her eyes, each one is vital to their role, and their role is vital to who they are in their personal lives. Through their adventures together, their friendships deepen, and a holiday romance even evolves. How can she make this impossible decision without hurting or losing one of her closest friends?

It is a sweet holiday story about how the right people will stick by your side no matter what and that friends can also be your chosen family.

Thank you to NetGalley and Storm Publishing for the opportunity to read this ARC.

4 Stars

This was my first book by Kristen Bailey and was such a cute holiday story! It reminded me of Mhairi McFarlane’s writing & I really enjoyed it. It was funny, sweet & heartwarming.

Our story is about Maggie who works in an IT department with three lovable guys— Jasper, Frank & Leo. Since Maggie is going to be solo for Christmas this year the guys take it upon themselves to invite her to their various holiday festivities.

We Three Kings has romance but it’s not the main event! It’s about friendship, family & doing the right thing. It was giving PG-13 Hallmark Christmas Movie!

Thank you to NetGalley and Storm Publishing for the ARC of We Three Kings in exchange for an honest review.

Maggie loves her job as head of IT at a financial firm, and her three geeky but lovable work buddies. And when they invite her to stay with each of them for the holidays, she can’t resist the chance to get to know them better.

But then her boss tells her she has to make one of her beloved team redundant, and Maggie is distraught. Frank’s work is his world, Jasper’s sarcastic humour is everything, and Leo…well, he’s talented, professional, confusingly attractive, dependable, and funny… Maggie definitely doesn’t want to lose him.

With her career and her heart on the line, Maggie sets off on the Christmas adventure of a lifetime, from playing fake girlfriend at a lavish wedding, to rescuing baby foxes on a posh country estate, to chasing a very confused donkey on Christmas Day in the Lake District. She can’t ignore the sparks between her and Leo – but she also can’t avoid her dilemma.

Can she find a way to keep her work family together, and maybe even find true love under the mistletoe?

If you're craving a cosy Christmas read, this one hits the spot! The characters are real, the humour is spot-on, and it beautifully captures the idea that your work family can be just as important as your real one.
Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC

Thanks to Storm Publishing for the widget. While this story takes place during the Christmas season its not really a Christmas story if that makes sense. Maggie must make a decision to lay-off one of her 3 co-workers. Frank, Jasper, or Leo she is the supervisor in the IT department. Without wanting to give anything away this book is so funny and just goes to show that there is such a thing as a work family. I resonated with Maggie in the case that I'm the only girl in a office full of men as well. I enjoyed their story and all the adventures and misadventures that they got into.

This is a heartwarming Christmas romcom centered on Maggie, an IT supervisor who has worked closely with her three colleagues—Frank, Jasper, and Leo—for the past four years. The four have grown into a tight-knit group, almost like family. When the guys discover that Maggie will be spending Christmas alone, they make it their mission to ensure she isn’t. Maggie ends up spending time with each of them and their families, deepening her connection with all three men.

However, Maggie faces a difficult dilemma just before the holidays: HR informs her that she must choose one person from her team to be made redundant in the new year. As she spends the holidays enjoying the company of her colleagues and their families, this tough decision weighs heavily on her mind.

The story beautifully balances humor, warmth, and the strong bonds of friendship, with plenty of amusing moments that highlight the dynamics between Maggie and the men. A twist at the end helps preserve their closeness, while her budding romance with Leo adds a sweet touch to the tale. Full of festive cheer, it’s a feel-good read that’s perfect for the holiday season, even if the plot feels predictable at times. The book’s sense of family, friendship, and holiday magic makes it a delightful and charming read.

If you're craving a cozy Christmas read with all the right ingredients—found family, workplace romance, and friends-to-lovers magic—this one hits the spot! Sure, the plot is a bit predictable, but that’s part of the charm. The characters are real, the humor is spot-on, and it beautifully captures the idea that your work family can be just as important as your real one.

Big thanks to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for letting me get in on this festive treat.

This did exactly what it says on the tin - it was a heartwarming but predictable rom-com, and sometimes that's exactly what I'm in the mood for.

I liked following Maggie as she explored her relationships with the three men she works with. They all seemed lovely in their own ways, and I enjoyed getting to know their families and individual storylines. Was it obvious how it would all end? Yes, but I really enjoyed the journey of getting there.

I would recommend this for anyone who wants a lighthearted, festive story.

Lovely, reallyenjoyed the interactions and caring between the four friends and their very different families.

One of the best rom com writers around - Bailey was once likened to Mhairi MacFarlane and I can’t think of a bigger compliment than that.

Wonderful characters that you wish you could bring to life off the page and fantastic comedy - there’s little more that you could ask for. Highly recommended as usual.

This was such a fun, thoughtful holiday read.

Maggie is the head of an IT department and enjoys working with her three co-workers. When they find out she's spending the holiday alone, they scheme together and decide she's going to spend it all with them. She heads off to a wedding with one, a posh country estate with another and a hometown visit with the third. Along the way, she learns all about them and their families and what the holidays mean to them. It's a fun story, but deep character interactions. I really enjoyed this one!

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for a temporary, digital ARC in return for my review.

A cozy Christmas read, with realistic characters, humour and although it’s fairly predictable, I enjoyed the story line. I like that it shows that men and women can just be friends, that your work family is just as valid as your real one and that you should always be yourself. One for your Christmas stocking.

Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publishers for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Kristen has become one of my favorite Christmas authors. I really enjoyed We Three Kings and Maggie was such a sweet and funny FMC. I found myself wanting to be part of the quirky IT group. Kristen does a wonderful job of bringing a complex story with mini adventures to page.
