I'm a sucker for second chances add in a wintery Christmas setting and this just wonderful. It continued the soapy over the top family drama of the first book in this series which is exactly what I loved about the first book as well. Perla's continued redemption fits and i am so glad we got to see her story!

I really enjoyed this steamy, second chance Christmas romance between a Hollywood actor and a casting director. Featuring two Latinx MCs, this was great on audio narrated by Lola James and worked as a standalone. If you're looking for a fun and heartfelt holiday read this was a perfect little treat by one of my fav new authors! Definitely recommended!

Second chance romance is not my fave, but these characters showed the necessary growth. Also, the cause of their break-up was more external than relationship-oriented, so that helped.

I was tickled to discover the mention of Alexis Daria's character from You Had me at Hola, Jasmine Lin Rodriguez. If Adriana and Alexis ever decide to co-write a book about the making of the fictional series starring Gael and Jasmine (and hopefully featuring their significant others, too), I would snap that up in a heartbeat!

 This was just so good! I loved their time together, the food descriptions, the time with his family, the steam. It reminded me of the old holidays with my family. What a great book.

What a great book!! I absolutely enjoyed this book. I love this author!! The LatinX representation is always a plus for me. This was a quick and easy read with plenty of spice, loving and lol moments.

4.5/5 - super quick and steamy second chance rom com! Definitely felt the tension between Gael and Perla. Wish we got some flashback scenes. Overall worth the quick holiday read.

second chance romances are really hard for me to enjoy yet i still pick them up??? 🤦🏽‍♀️ i did have a good time with this one though!! the forced proximity aspect was great & i just loved the whole betrayal aspect by [redacted]. it was a little cliché but it was my kind of cliché.
