Sarah Morgan has delivered a cast of likeable characters, an enchanting setting, cute banter, and cozy holiday vibes in this charming tale of family and love. The alternating perspectives offers an extra layer to the plot, and although predictable at times, the writing offers both heartwarming and hilarious scenes. Overall, this is a decent story but nothing special, and demonstrates the importance of not going it alone in life, and offered me a gentle escape from the realties of life.
