Yes I am aware it is May. I was in a reading slump and nothing gets me out of one like a cute holiday romance! This was cute, funny, and fasted pace. It felt like a hallmark movie and was exactly what I wanted!

ARC review
A cute roadtrip romance with a chance encounter. And, that ending was a TWIST if I've ever seen one. You never expect a twist in a contemporary romance.
I loved this book so much. I loved the sort of grumpy/sunshine aspect to it along with the unexpected meeting on the plane.
I've read a lot of Christmas romances lately and this one sticks out in a great way. HIGHLY recommend.

It's a cute little meet-cute that gives me almost a movie vibe I can't quite put my finger on, but there are plenty of laughs with Tessa.
Now that I think about it, it gave me Planes, Trains, and Automobiles vibes, but between a man and woman. Tess and Trey (Albin) have a run-in at the airport; it's no big deal until he's in her seat in first class on the plane. The plane she impulsively decided to get on to find her "true love" after only a few dates?
Whatever, we'll leave that plot hole alone...
But it's a fun ride, slow burn, minimal spice read, much like Piper Rayne's other books. But I enjoyed it a lot.

Wow, this was SO good. Honestly at first I wasn’t sure I would like it, because I feel like holiday romance like this is always insta love. Which it was, but in a way that worked for me.
Pros: I loved how they were like polar opposites. They were honestly so perfect together and the little road-trip was so cute and honestly makes me want to do that lol. I loved Tre’s family and the twist was so unexpected but I loved it. It honestly made things better. I felt like the story was really well put together and the banter, slow burn, and obvious chemistry made it a great holiday read!
Cons: honestly I don’t have anything really, I think it’s the perfect holiday read!
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is such a fiery enemies to lovers story and it’s such an emotional, heartwarming holiday romance.
It has all the things I love in romance wrapped up in a holiday bow.
The characters are intriguing and become so likable. The story has plenty of depth. There’s delicious, hot chemistry and emotions show up in a big way.
I was so charmed by this story and the characters journey. It’s a must read for the holidays!

A cute end to my holiday reads (at the end of January). Tessa and Tre were fun characters and I enjoyed getting to know them more as the story went on. There were places where there were more details trying to add some depth to each of them, but it felt a little rushed or not cohesive. Even so, their journey was full of fun pit stops and meetings. Overall, I enjoyed it!
