I was going into this with low expectations, but then found I was really enjoying it! It had the cozy vibes of Dan in Real Life with a Groundhog day twist.

I was fully prepared to give it 4 stars, until towards the end,

when the guy completely froze her out, refused to communicate, said he was going to leave early, fully made her believe the relationship was over, and then later laughed it off and said it was just their first fight. Girl, if that's how he fights, do not stay with him, your life will be a nightmare of silent treatments and gas lighting.

If their "first fight" had been handled differently, I would have liked it way more.

I agree with all the other reviews that describe this book as a Christmas romance meets the movie Groundhog Day. At the end of her family's annual week with friends at their mountain cabin, single Maelyn makes a wish to the universe to show her how to be happy in her life. She's tired of jobs and relationships that go nowhere. Then begins several days of her starting this vacation week over again. An accident at some point keeps sending her back to the beginning, but fortunately for the storyline, this pattern only continues for a few repetitions as she realizes she has done something wrong each time. Once the week begins to progress, and she sees how to make some changes in her life, it's easy to get invested in wanting everything to work out for her. There are bumps along the way, but it's a very sweet romance with the shared history of growing up together and parents being best friends.
