Let’s ignore that the first book I’ve finished this year is a Christmas book. If we can have a pre-Christmas in November, what is stopping me from enjoying the season with a post-Christmas in January? 😂🎄

Anyways, this book was a messy, hilarious, and touching read for the holiday season. If you need a cute, gay Christmas romance in your life that has many of the classic cliche tropes, than this would be a fun read. 

This book does have an insta-love trope, which is one of my least favorite tropes, but it didn’t bother me so much here as it has in other reads. Maybe because the situation the characters find themself in is complex and messy, so we spend more time getting to know these charming characters and why they love each other.

It took me less than a week to read this, and it normally takes me far longer to finish a book. I really enjoyed it, even if it was a little predictable, I didn’t mind.

I loved the concept of this but the execution was just too riddled with miscommunication for me. Also, the way Jack didn't even pretend to understand in what different situations she and Elle were in — of course 200 thousand dollars would've changed her life. That's not something you easily say no to.

Extremely adorable and fun to read! After trying and bailing on several Christmas romances this year, I finally found one that was a keeper. Romance can be really hit or miss with me, and I was worried that this one, which combines tropes like crazy, wouldn't fly and I'm super glad I gave it a chance!
