Cheesy Christmas rom-com that was everything I wanted and more. I was obsessed with this story and didn’t want to put it down. I didn’t realize before reading that it was also going to incorporate Ireland so heavily which is a big plus for me.

 Eu absolutamente ADOREI essa história! E isso vem de alguém que geralmente não gosta de livros com temática natalina e de amigos para amantes. Curiosamente, antes de ler esse livro, eu li Snowed In, que é a sequência desse romance e assim que eu terminei, sabia que não queria me despedir dos personagens então não sosseguei ate que Holiday Romance apareceu no KU. O estilo de escrita da Catherine é divertido e puro escapismo em um cenário idílico da Irlanda. Se você tiver num dia ruim, tenho certeza de que esse livro o torna um pouco melhor. 

O que tem de diferente nesse quando o comparo com Snowed In, é que esse tem um pov só - o da Molly - e foi escrito em primeira pessoa, o que eu prefiro. A gente acompanha Molly e Andrew - com a história sendo contada em dois períodos de tempo diferentes - um após o presente e outro após uma década de viagem de Molly e Andrew à Irlanda para passar o Natal.

Foi uma experiência muito gostosa ver como essas duas pessoas que eram basicamente desconhecidos, desenvolveram seu relacionamento em amizade e depois em romance. Também quero mencionar que minha pessoa favorita nesse livro foi o primo do Andrew, cujo nome já esqueci, mas a personalidade permanecerá comigo por muito tempo. Os capítulos com ele foram os mais engraçados.

I absolutely loved this book. I am a sucker for a good Christmas time romance and this was a great one. The relationship buildup between Molly and Andrew over the last 10 years on their travels home gave such a good understanding of these characters and you can really see just how perfect these two are for each other. Loved the adventure these two went on getting home for Christmas on their 10th year and the stress to making their flight on time. Not going to lie I felt a bit stressed out myself that they weren’t going to make it in time. Really enjoyed reading this and will be checking out Catherine’s other books next!

Thank you NetGalley & Bookouture for giving me an ARC copy of this book to read!

This was so cute. Friends to lovers over 10 years and one crazy trip home for Christmas. Read the second in the series first without knowing it was a series and still found it so cute and cosy.

Molly and Andrew are Irish citizens living in Chicago. By accident they end up sitting next to each other on a flight from Chicago to Dublin to go home for the holidays. It becomes a tradition that is still going on ten years later.

This is exactly what I want out of a Christmas rom com. Smart, funny, and sweet without a trace of sentimentality (not that I’m opposed to sentimentality, but it can get a little thick this time of year).
