ETA: THIS CONTEST ENDED AS OF 12/7/18. But keep checking my blog for new posts because more contests will be announced soon 🙂.
As promised, I’m now starting the first of my Holiday Favs Giveaways! Yes, I know I called it the 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways last week, but then I caught the flu, so everything’s now been shortened to match my new state of sickness. Hey, at first I was going to rename it Frosts 12-Way Favs, and then I read that title out loud. Whoops ;).
Anyway, these giveaways are brought to you by SHADES OF WICKED, my latest release. So, before we get to them, let’s thank our sponsors, Ian and Veritas, shall we? Who are they? new visitors might be wondering? Let me introduce you!
The Rule Breaker
Master vampire Ian is unrepentant, shameless…and every shade of wicked. He’s made one too many enemies in his two centuries of existence, including Dagon, a demon who now lays claim to his soul. Ian’s only chance to escape Dagon is to join forces with a Law Guardian, but he’s never been able to abide by the rules for long.
The Law Maker
Veritas’ normal role is police, judge and jury to reprobates like Ian. But she has her own ax to grind with Dagon, so if she can use Ian as bait…well, all’s fair in law and war. As they scour supernatural hotspots to perfect their trap, Veritas soon realizes Ian’s devil-may-care, roguish image hides something much more powerful. And Ian discovers that Veritas has shocking secrets of her own. As they’re drawn to each other with a passion as intense as their peril, either love or justice will prevail. But each will have devastating consequences… Order: Amazon, B&N, IndieBound, Apple Books, BooksAMillion, Kobo or Malaprops.
Okay, shameless promo plug out of the way, let’s get right to PRIZE 1 of the Holiday Favs giveaways! First up are books, books, books! THREE WINNERS will get to choose from ONE of the books below, which contains ALL the novels in my Night Huntress, Night Huntress World, Night Prince and new Night Rebel series, with an added extended novella from The Bite Before Christmas anthology because it’s an important Cat and Bones story that I really should have just made into a complete book, but didn’t. I even arranged the books in my Author Recommended Reading Order because not even the flu can limit my ocd, ha! Anyway, here are the pretties. The three winners can choose to have them in either paperback or ebook. This part of the contest is open to US and international readers, although due to ebook restrictions, any international winners are limited to receiving their prize in paperback only.
But I don’t only want books! some of you might be saying. I hear you! How about some chocolate, too? ONE LUCKY WINNER will also get a box of Godiva chocolate PLUS any book from my collection featured above, in either paperback or ebook, winner’s choice. This part of the contest is limited to US readers only.
But wait, there’s more! What goes better with books than chocolate, you wonder? Books, chocolate, AND MONEY! 🙂 ONE LUCKY WINNER will get any book from my collection above, PLUS a box of Godiva chocolate, PLUS a $25 Amazon egift card! This part of the contest is open to US readers only.
THE RULES:
If you want your chance to be one of the five total winners, then tell me your favorite holiday-themed movie. For example, mine would be a tie between It’s A Wonderful Life and National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. I like the uplifting, timeless truths of It’s A Wonderful Life, but let’s face it, my actual holidays more closely resemble the mayhem of Christmas Vacation ;). This category is open to all holidays, of course. Or, if you don’t have an official holiday-themed favorite movie, holiday-adjacent is fine, too. If I were picking for that category, mine would be The Family Man, where the holidays are barely mentioned because it’s mostly a fish-out-of-water story combined with a meant-to-be love story, all wrapped up with a tinge of supernatural intervention. Hey, you can rock the holiday horror category, too. Gremlins was an all-time favorite of mine, and Santa’s Slay still makes me laugh out loud.
I mentioned a bunch of examples, but you only have to tell me one of your favorites to be eligible to enter. Reply in the comments on my website blog ONLY so I have them all together in one place. Winners will be randomly selected. Not sure if you’re at my website blog? Here is the link: https://jeanienefrost.com/2018/12/holiday-favs-giveaways-prize-1/
Contest opens NOW and ends Friday, December 7th at 9am Eastern time. Please only enter once per person. Thanks and good luck!

Rena M. says
A Christmas Story is my all time favorite Christmas movie. Love Actually is a very close second.
Lannette says
Little Drummer Boy
Ashley See says
It is not necessarily a Christmas movie, but I love to watch The Ultimate Gift during the holidays. It is such a heartwarming story of a man learning how to love, work , and live life to the fullest. My second favorite would have to be Elf. That movie always makes me laugh.
Roseann says
As much as I love my family’s choice of movies, they chose to watch The Godfather on Christmas day, I’ll have to go with A Nightmare Before Christmas.
Amy I. says
Nightmare Before Christmas and Santa Claus Is Coming to The Town! I love all the Rankin-Bass movies!
Jaime says
My favorite holiday movie is Love Actually. I’m a sucker for a good rom-com.
Tairyn Ayala says
A Christmas Story is a must at my house, but I secretly love (since it came out) Office Party!
Sara says
“White Christmas” is mandatory watching. At least one viewing is required every December. The music, the costumes, the love?? What’s not to like?
Gina Rafkin says
National lampoons Christmas vacation! It’s not Christmas until we watch it,!
Stacy says
Jingle All The Way is mine! I grew up loving Arnold’s action movies and Sinbad’s stand-up, so this movie has always had a special place in my heart! 😊

David Shower says
I’m going to have to say Independence Day. Love me some science fiction mayhem 🙂

Emerald says
Mine would be a tie between Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas and White Christmas. White Christmas is a family tradition, one where we watch it every year while putting up the tree and/or on Christmas day. Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas tends to aid me in reliving a little of that magical feeling that Christmas used to inspire when I was a kid. 🙂
Jennifer Cooker says
Nightmare Before Christmas!
Lisa says
How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Love action and animated.
Lisa says
Live*
Julia Lehmann says
A Christmas Carol (1997) is actually my favourite Christmas movie <3 It's an animated movie and I still watch it every year since childhood. It's about the true meaning of Christmas and tells us to also think of others and to give rather than take. Also it's about how little things can already make a great change.
Jennifer says
I feel like Home Alone doesn’t get the love it deserves as a holiday movie, that’s definitely one of my faves!
Sherry Shepherd says
It’s a Wonderful Life!
Julie Li says
Home Alone but the Grinch is up there too.

I have to say mine is Home Alone. Watched all 3 for years every christmas.
Deborah Holland says
Santa Claus Conquers Mars. Preferably dubbed by Mystery Science Theater.
Amanda Marti says
White Christmas, it was a yearly tradition with my Dad as a kid. Hes been gone for 8 years now and this year is the first time i have been able to bring myself to watch it. Yes i cried but it brought back wonderful memories of us singing together (horribly) and dancing together with me standing on his feet.
Camille says
My faves are not movies, just the older xmas shows. Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, Twas the night before Christmas, Frosty the snowman, Nester the long eared donkey (always makes me cry), Santa Claus is coming to town. I’ve had them on vhs since my twenties (46 now). A family member found them on a 2 dvd set a couple years ago and gave it to me for xmas. I still watch them all every december.
Tamra says
National Lampoons! Love it.
Chris Bails says
I love Elf and Christmas Story. We watch those several times every year.

Elf is my favorite and we watch it every year.

Happy Holidays Jeannine! 💕 The Family Stone is my favorite holiday movie, there’d are so many wonderful characters!

Julie says
My favorite Christmas movie is Die Hard. I watch it every year. I also love Gremlins. 🙂
Melonie Morgan says
It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!
My son has autism and this was the first “movie” that really caught his interest. He loves to quote it! Watching my 5-year old light up when it comes on has made this my overall favorite.
For Christmas, The Year Without A Santa Clause tops my list. Heat Miser and Snow Miser remind me of me and my sister.
Sarah says
The Christmas Toy
Colleen C. says
Die Hard! 😉
Mary Jeanne Blum says
It’s a short film, but we watch it every year. “Mr. Kruger’s Christmas”
Cathy says
I think I’d have to go with The Last Holiday as my favorite Christmas movie. It’s just so darn cheesy and cute. Plus the cast includes Queen Latifah, LL Cool J, Gerard Depardieu & Timothy Hutton, which is pretty freaking cool on its own. What a crazy combination.
Monica says
Favorite Christmas movie would be a Christmas story since my sister and I watch every year after unwrapping presents with the family. I should say my sister and I are in our 30s so this tradition has been going on for awhile now 🙂
Rachel Slaughter says
Mine is a tie between Its a Wonderful Life and White Christmas. My son (age 4) loves the music in White Christmas and sings like Bing Crosby year round.

All. The. Feels!! ❤️
Kathy Bohnenberger says
Growing up, my favorite was Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer – but in recent years, it’s been usurped by The Santa Clause. 🙂
Thank you for this opportunity!
Elizabeth Gilson says
My new favorite is Christmas Chronicals on Netflix with Kurt Russell. I love the day Santa but with a wholesome holiday theme 🎅🏻
Heather Shadix says
Die Hard and Gremlins!!!!!! Not a Hallmark Christmas movie type of person, no matter the season. Lol
Teresa Hartz says
White Christmas!!! We start watching it on Thanksgiving all the way through Christmas. Bing Crosby & Danny Kaye are the best.
Carolyn Slater says
#1 is Elf because it makes me laugh my ass off every time. Regardless of the fact that I’ve seen it hundreds of times and not always during the holidays.
#2 is White Christmas because my mom loved crooner music during the holidays and Bing was her favorite. Other has classic songs and is also quiet funny.
Carolyn Slater says
I’d also like to add How The Grinch Stole Christmas. I believe I grew up to become the Grinch 😉
Donna says
Hi, my favorite is Love Actually
Kim S says
The Holiday and The Last Holiday are my favorites along with The Grinch with Jim Carey😄😄
Star says
I enjoy The Holiday. 🙂
Chris Thom says
The Santa Clause is my favorite holiday themed movie due to the character growth and changes it shows. The whole idea of the card Santa carries with the fine print is all so novel and funny!
Arilyn says
Mine would have to be the Santa Claus trilogy, Bill Murrays Scrooged, and A Smokey Mountain Christmas.
Micki says
The Grinch with Jim Carrey!
Lucy Koegeboehn says
ELF! Love Will Ferrell….he makes me laugh!

The Muppets Christmas Carol
Gretchen Blacksmith says
I have to go with How the Grinch Stole Christmas because it came out in 1966 when I was the same age as Cindy LooWho, who was only 2.
Reena says
Either Elf or the Nightmare Before Christmas, depending on the mood. Though Nightmare is really a Halloween movie, but that’s a holiday, so…
Ruth Wojtkiewicz says
I love just about any version of “A Christmas Carol” and I have to watch and sing along to “White Christmas” at least once a year.
Sarah says
The Family Stone! Or on a slightly lesser holiday theme, The Joy Luck Club.
Anne Marie Wolfe says
A Christmas story, I can watch it over and over!!
MELISSA says
Elf. Its one of the last movies I was able to see with my best friend before she passed from heart failure. Every time I see it on it makes me smile because we laughed so much and so hard.
Brandy Pearcy says
Mr. Magoo’s A Christmas Carol!
Tina Roush says
Nightmare Before Christmas
Kelley Williams says
Nightmare before Christmas, because really we all need some Christmas spirit during Halloween and some Halloween spirit during Christmas. And you know Jack and Sally are relationship goals.
Amy Dutcher says
My all time favorite movie for the holidays and non-holidays is The Nightmare Before Christmas. I love my bone daddy. 💀
Ashra says
My favorite is probably A Nightmare Before Christmas. Spooktacular art style and songs, plus it merges my favorite holiday, Halloween, with my second favorite, Christmas.
Carol says
I love White Christmas. All of the music takes me back to when my mom and my grandma would play Bing and Danny music every season while doing Christmas baking. Also the good turn done in the movie is heart warming.
Misty Shirk says
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation!
Kristen K. says
Thank you for hosting this giveaway!
The Life and Adventures of Santa Clause is my favorite holiday movie. I love the old claymation classics, and this one was a unique take on Santa Clause backstory.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Life_and_Adventures_of_Santa_Claus_(1985_film)
Tina says
“A Christmas Carol” for the win. Patrick Stewart or Scrooge McDuck all versions are welcome 😁
Bobbi Gies says
I’d have to say a Christmas Carol or the Nutcracker.
Tiffany says
Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang. I love the scenes where they help at the Christmas factory and when the Truly pretends to be a wind up doll and dances. Dick van Dyke is always awesome.
Carol bierschwale says
National lampoon Christmas vacation and home alone.
Elli says
How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Elf!!! 💚💚💚
Happy Holidays!
Michelle A says
I have so many, I can’t wait until November/December when I can watch holiday movies. The Nightmare Before Christmas, the Gift of the Magi, National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, a Charlie Brown Christmas, a Christmas Story, The Grich Who Stole Christmas, Ruldolph the Red Nose Reindeer…..
Ashley says
A Christmas Story. It’s one of the movies my brother, dad, and I bond over, which is nice since we lived states apart while my brother is serving in the USAF.
Cindy Langley says
A Charlie Brown Christmas followed closely by the original How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Julie Palos says
It’s a tie between A Christmas Story snd Christmas Vacation
Kim Pickett says
Mine is Grumpy Old Men. Reminds me of my grandfather and all his own quirky ways which drove me crazy as a kid, but now I’d give anything to have back!
Sydnei says
My favorite holiday movie is definitely National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. I’ve watched it so many times, and I still laugh at the same things. Just Friends is a close second. It’s hilarious!

My favorite Christmas movie is A Christmas Story, but I love the classic cartoons and claymation as well. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Frosty, and the one with Heat Miser and Cold Miser.
Lea Lowndes says
My favorite childhood movie is AYear Without a Santa Claus. I just love heat miser and snow miser and The song is just so infectious. My favorite adult movie is White Christmas, because it’s just a great classic and I have a soft spot for musicals.
Shaeesta says
Elf. Buddy is so sweet and endearing. The scene where he eats the gum off the subway rails still makes me queasy.
I find myself answering the phone close to Christmas like this – “Buddy the elf, what’s your favourite colour.”
Sarah says
Love Actually!
Nancy Wilson says
White Christmas
Kimberly Windham says

Astrid Vietmeier Cahuich says
My favorite Christmas movie would be The Snowblow, although for Halloween it would be a Mexican movie called Macario, it’s old but very interesting.
I know it has nothing to do with the theme of the contest, but, you are my favorite writer, I admire you a lot, kisses.
Patricia Wilcox says
BACHELOR MOTHER. made in 1939 with David Niven and Ginger Rogers. It was redone with Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher. But I like the 1939 the best. They are both fun romantic comedies. My Mom and I watch them every year (both of the movies.)

My favorite is Home Alone. I watch the movies every single year even though I know the whole movie by heart. I guess they have became part of my Christmas traditions over the years. Also I love watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
Nicole says
My favourite is Home Alone. I am looking forward to introducing these movies to my almost 12 year old. It won’t be cold or snowing in Melbourne Australia, but lots of laughs nonetheless.
Wishing you all the best for a safe and happy festive season.
Bethany says
Die Hard.
I will fight anyone who says it is not a Christmas movie.
L.N. says
All time favorite – “It’s A Wonderful Life” – just love the story, the message, & emotions of it. & it’s such a well done story with great cast, still holds up today.
If my mom was still with us, she might say “Mister Magoo’s Christmas Carol” 🙂
& more recent, non story oriented, really enjoy “Celtic Woman: Home for Christmas”.
Merry Christmas to y’all, & have a great holidays.
Lorie Benton says
Mine has to be a tie between Rudolph the Red Nose reindeer the How the Grinch stole Christmas. I can’t choose between those two great movies 🙂

Saheli Bhattacharya says
It’s really hard to name a single movie as my favourite holiday movie but to mention a few…
Home alone, The Holiday, While you were sleeping, Love actually, Frozen
Kelley says
My favorite is “A Christmas Story”. It was filmed in my home state of Ohio.
For classics its “Charlie Brown Christmas”. & now “Die Hard” because of my favorite actor Alan Rickman.
Sherry says
My favorite is Rudolph cartoon movie. I grew up with 4 siblings, that’s the only movie that all of us would sit and watch and not talk and fight. It’s family tradition to watch it several times this month. Has been since I was born. I grew up wanting to go to misfit island. I still want too. But as adults we are all a bit on our own misfit island just trying to make it. Have a very merry Christmas, or happy holiday season 🙂
Tuija Ojala says

Amy says
I love Elf and the Polar Express! Both of which I watch ever year and have since introdyced my children to these.

Die hard is our favourite. This is the first movie we watch every season.
Yesenia D. says
Home Alone

I have two favorites, Home Alone because well, it’s home alone!! Best childhood memories watching it with my family, and now making more sharing it with my kids. The other would be Die Hard.

I’d have to say Home Alone – I love that movie even though I didn’t realize it was a holiday movie until maybe the 5th time I watched it 😂

My all time favorite movie is It’s A Wonderful Life. I have always been a fan of Jimmy Stewart. It also reminds me of how blessed I am.
Bethany Averie says
I’m not sure what my favorite Christmas movie is, actually! I really like “Elf” but I think perhaps I like “The Santa Clause” (1 & 2, 3 was not as good). I like upbeat happy, funny, and warm-hearted for Christmas.

Cassey Walsh says
Its SO HARD to pick my favorite holiday themed movie!! one of my most favorite things in the whole world to do (other than knitting and reading!) is to snuggle on the couch with my kids and watch holiday movies!!!! (and eat snacks!!!!)
I’d have to say HOme Alones or Elf. I LOVE them! The Home Alones bring me back to my childhood and give me such a warm nostalgic feeling and Elf is my kids FAVORITE so its become one of my favorites and is just a really happy sillly feel good family movie!

A christmas carol is my favorite.
Margaret says
White Christmas is my favorite Christmas movie.
Marty says
Polar Express and National Lampoon Christmas Vacation are my two all time favorites.

The Grinch who stole Christmas (Jim Carrey version) and The Nightmare before Christmas. Love these two movies; me and my girls will watch them over and over and over.
Liz S says
Holiday Inn is my favorite. I love the songs and the dancing. Thanks for the contest and Happy Holidays to you!
Eli says
I suppose my favorite Christmas movie is Love, Actually since it is the one Christmas movie I make sure I watch every year even though I find some of the story lines a bit creepy.
Jacqueline says
You Cast a Spell on Me (also listed as A Kind of Magic) with Nikki DeLoach and Ryan McPartlin. Although not a Christmas movie, more a “sort of” Halloween film. Just fun. For Christmas, A Charlie Brown Christmas and Mistletoe Promise. Charlie Brown is a tradition, even now. Mistletoe Promise, a Hallmark film, with Jaime King and Luke McFarland, is also different. Not a typical Christmas story. The “3 ghosts of Christmas” do come up, however.
Thanks for the Joy at Christmas, Jeaniene! AND for the Night Prince novels. I have re-read them often and they’re getting a little dog-eared. LOL!
Dannah says
My favorite holiday movie is Die Hard! I love John McClane! Alan Rickman might play the villain but he still warms my heart.
lacie lester says
Prancer is my favorite holiday movie! Because-Sam Elliott.
Katharina F says
One of my favorites is “Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale”. It is a Finnish fantasy horror thriller. 😀 But I also love “Home Alone”.
Janice says
The Santa Clause was very enjoyable. Hard to pick a favorite. I’ve also liked the quirky “Nightmare Before Christmas” which is also a love story
Jenn says
Christmas Vacation is my favorite Christmas movie. My family watches it every Christmas Eve.
Kim Valva says
My favorite holiday movie will always be Home Alone! I can still remember being an 8 year old girl and watching the movie with my mom. Now I get to share the tradition with my 2 girls! I still laugh at all the scenes with him torturing the “Wet Bandits” and love the meaning that in the end the best gift is family.
Melissa says
Christmas Vacation has always been my favorite, but i also love Elf and Krampus!
Jo says
My favourite is A Christmas Carol. But it has to be the 1951 version starring Alistair Sim as Scrooge. And it has to be in black and white – none of that colourized garbage which looks completely fake.
Jennifer says
Lady and the Tramp – My mom and I used to watch it every Christmas Eve, especially for the opening scene.
Traci Finn says
I love old movies so mine would have to be a Christmas story.
P. Noble says
Mine would be It’s a Wonderful Life, but my husband’s is A Christmas Story. We actually watch that one more during the holidays! LOL!
JESSIE says
Elf! It still makes me laugh and still brings a tear to my eye!

I’m not a big fan of Christmas movies so the only one I can think of is ‘How The Grinch Stole Christmas’. Thanks for the giveaway!

If we are going only Christmas themed, then hands down Elf, but if we can include any holiday I have to include Hocus Pocus 😉
Kathy says
It’s A Wonderful Life! Reminds us to think twice about how our decisions affect those we love!
Donna says
My favorite is the Polar Express. I have to watch that every Christmas.
April says
Home Alone is up there as one of my favorite holiday movies. Now I love watching with my Son who just loves it. His laugh is so contagious while watching the movie.
Danyelle says
My favorite holiday-themed movie is a tie between White Christmas and The Polar Express. I enjoy both of them equally!
Kendra Schiller says
I love the movie Elf!
Ann says
Love How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Lori Keen says
My favorite holiday movie is Die Hard. I know it does not seem Christmas to some people but the father who does what it takes to make his family happy at Christmas speaks to me. I love this movie. A Christmas Story is wonderful too with the all the family craziness.
