This was so unrealistic and so cringe. I didn’t find anything about this cute. I hate insta-lust mistaken for love. Christmas cringe is not for me.

This festive romance delivers all the cozy charm you'd expect from its wintry small-town setting—complete with flannel, family dynamics, and holiday magic. Gilmore’s writing is warm and witty, and the setting feels like a Hallmark movie come to life. While the overall tone is sweet and the story arc comforting, the unexpectedly explicit sex scenes felt jarringly out of step with the otherwise wholesome vibe. If you’re looking for a lighthearted holiday read and don’t mind some spice in your cocoa, this one might be for you—but it wasn’t quite the blend we were hoping for.
