I loved visiting with Reagan,Charlie and Jamie again. I was surprised by the inclusion of characters from 3 other stories well done. I cried when Reagan spoke to Mr Miller and again when Charlie had her talk with him. Nana saves the day with a good laugh. She is one cool lady. I hope we get to go to their wedding. Now I need to read the other stories as well

After reading the sheer amount of homophobia in Anyone But You, I probably should've expected the same for the sequel. I definitely understand how the parents couldn't have changed their opinions on their children's sexuality so easily, but I wanted a cute Christmas novella about a proposal, not constant homophobic comments. In addition, this seemed more for people who've read all of Lee's works and are familiar with her other characters, not casual readers. The scene where all the couples joined together at once felt awkward and disjointed to me (especially since I've only read the one other book by this author). Overall, Charlie and Raegan are an adorable couple and I loved their sweet moments, but I wish this novella was set with the non-homophobic parents instead of being subjected to even more prejudicial thoughts.
