Eh. This was fine. This was one of those books that was really easy to read, and while reading it, I felt no desire to stop, but I didn't get much out of it. The trope and setup are really cute: f/f sister's best friend romance, black love, mutual oblivious pining, they reconnect at the family home after long years apart. But the decision to have them be like, just meeting after so many years apart was a bad one, imo. This novella is so short, and I don't think enough of a connection was established between them, neither in the past nor present. No meat on the bones of this relationship at all. And like, I picked this up because it's a Christmas romance and I'm in my holiday ho era, but the Vibes™ just were not there. They wrapped some presents once; that's about it.
Nothing egregiously wrong with it; it was short and cute and hot, and I really liked how nerdy Rocky was. But also... eh.
