I love New York and the Plaza Hotel being at the center of the story, these two elements made the book. Also, loved the backdrop of the Eloise books. I thought the best story was Grayson and Veronica. The Ian & Sabrina story did not do much for me. Overall, I was entertained.

My first Christmas read of the season. I really enjoyed the dual timeline of this story. Sabrina is a ghostwriter for Grayson Prescott and as he is recounting his time at the Plaza being a butler for Kay Thompson, among others, we also get to see Sabrina having her own romance with Ian Westing. A cute holiday romance that would be perfect for the Hallmark Channel.

I really enjoyed this holiday romance. It was predictable but I liked the multiple points of view and the backdrop of New York City. I enjoyed all the main characters and how one of them from the past was interwoven unexpectedly into the plot. A 4.5/5 for me.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

There is nothing like Christmas at the Plaza...

This book will easily fill your heart with so much emotion and joy as you follow not only Ian and Sabrina's romance, but also Grayson and Veronica's tale as old as time. Hands down is THE Christmas book of 2021!

As you read, you quickly learn that love is worth all the hard work you have to put in for it to be successful and that it is so timeless. As one of the characters in the book says: “Love isn’t a game of poker, where you see who ends up with the best hand. It’s about two people coming together and creating fireworks that only they can see."

Do yourself a favor and get this book as soon as you can for you or a friend who loves Christmas, or honestly love itself.

Thank you NetGalley! This story was straight out of the best Hallmark movies I have seen. I loved the dual timelines and Sabrinas character is funny and so lovable! The plot is a tad Pretty Woman but I thought it was a cute enough Christmas read. .

Sabrina is living a dream, spending the week between Christmas and New Year in a suite at the Plaza Hotel as she ghost writes a memoir for an art dealer that once was a butler at the Plaza Hotel. When Sabrina meets Ian they each assume something about the other based on circumstances. As they get closer will the truth change things between them? A holiday story that leaves the reader smiling.

Thanks to the publishers and NetGalley for providing an arc for my honest review

Never have wanted to stay at the plaza more in my life. Truly my this book should be called “a magical plaza Christmas”

But I really enjoyed it all the way through.

Wow this was awful. I'm not sure why I didn't just DNF. This wanted to be a good book but it just was so boring, bland, predictable, and infuriating. I never brought Sabrina and Ian having feelings for each other and there was just such poor writing through out the book. I wanted to love this book I wound up hate reading it instead.
