Actual Rating: 3.5 stars

I felt that this was the perfect holiday read. It was a quick fast paced, fun easy read.

The story was a cute fluffy winter contemporary, but didn't feel there was a lot of substance for the story. It had the makings of everything I loved: New York City, two people falling in love, and Christmas, but it fell flat in the story and I ended up just feeling like it was an okay read.

I had some minor issues with the characters, but would recommend to anyone who is needing a quick holiday/snow day/raining day read.

Read the German version and noticed that many scenes were left out or changed. So the story did not always make sense.

There wasn’t particularly bad about this book… it was just chronically mediocre.

Not really my thing, a bit too cheesy. Too many exclamation points, but it was cute ig.
