This book was so cute, I love the progression of Luca and Stella’s relationship. The plot had lots of different turns, and I really enjoyed this rate, definitely an adorable Christmas Reid and I will be reading the next few books in the series. This book is sexy, cute & hits your feels in all the right spot.

A very sweet, steamy, small town romance featuring a friends to lovers relationship. The way this man was a complete simp for Stella 😌

If you adore a friends to lovers romance, small town setting, “he falls first” with the most cozy vibes— definitely pick this up! 

For maximum coziness, pick this up during the fall/winter💛

There’s pretty much no diversity in the book, and the cops are helpful “good guys” (lol) so this holiday story is as white as an actual Hallmark movie. That said, the spicy aspects of the book are really comfortable and cozy, which isn’t something you find too often. Tropes include

friends to lovers, found family, and a good dose of not sharing their feelings

. So if you’re looking for something easy and are willing to overlook the lack of diversity, it’s actually a pretty cute romance.

So so so cute, very well written. Awesome chemistry between them the whole time, really rich side characters and world.
2 sex scenes (plus a bonus chapter that is another sex scene on the KU version, idk if there’s another version)

Minor: Alcohol, Cancer, and Death of parent

Abandonment:

Estelle’s father left her mother when she got pregnant, he had a wife & another child (born shortly after Estelle) that didn’t know about her. Overcoming her fear of being abandoned is the main part of her character development, as she worried Luka & her two business partners will leave her.

Alcoholism:

Estelle’s father shows up to Thanksgiving Dinner intoxicated and ends up passing out, it is implied that that happens a lot

Infidelity:

Estelle’s father was unfaithful to his wife when he impregnated Estelle’s mom, but additionally it’s mentioned about 90% of the way through the book that his wife is leaving him because he was cheating with multiple ppl at his office

Cancer, Death of parent, Grief:

Estelle’s mom died of Cancer before the events of the novel, she mentions her mother & missing her/keeping her memory alive multiple times; Luka’s father died when he was a kid (exact cause unknown, but not cancer) and they mention it & his & his mother’s grief multiple times
