Cute, light & easy winter read! I found myself getting little tired of the drama of Josie not committing, but overall it was a sweet read.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I wished more than anything that the male protagonist had any type of personality outside of being a "small town guy" from remote Alaska. But after spending the entire book wondering how the book would resolve the big city girl and small town guy fall in love conflict without making her abandon her dreams, I was pleased with the ending. There was a lot of attention paid to secondary character, Jack, who I think was supposed to be endearing, but I found to be extremely annoying and unnecessary to the plot.

A good one to kick off my holiday reading with as I'm hopeful they'll only get better from here!

What a cute story! I really liked the romance in this one. I’m glad that Josie was able to go back to Seattle to find out if she liked working at the restaurant. I think if she would’ve stayed in Ponder she would’ve had a lot of regrets. I was so happy that Jack and Palmer went to surprise Josie at the restaurant. I’m also glad she quit; she didn’t deserve the pressure she was under. She should’ve quit sooner! The whole situation with Jack and Josie’s mom was weird though. I know why Macomber did it but it was still weird. Overall definitely worth the read!
