My expectations for this one were blown away! I really enjoyed the take on fate and the incorporation of the Chinese proverb of the red thread. The characters were so enjoyable (even though at times I wanted to shake them and scream "what are you doing?!"), and I loved seeing not only the relationships in this one grow, but also the individuals grow past their "flaws".

This one grew on me. I really didn't like Noelle at first and God, don't get me started on fucking Ed. But, I was really proud of the progress Noelle made in finding herself, taking chances, and really living her life. Sam was a gem. He and Noelle had great chemistry! Lia did a great job of genuinely making them feel like soulmates - the two ends of an invisible red thread. Overall, a cute story.

oh my god everyone this is not a drill! I am a converted romance reader it’s the end for me!!!
in separate unrelated news, this is definitely not a christmas novel lol. still super cute and AMAZING, but false advertising there lololol
all it takes is eight perfect hours for someone to meet their soulmate, especially if it’s on a highway stuck in a blizzard with no phone charger kind of day. at least that’s how it goes with sam and noelle (what a perfect name wow) - until they meet again … and again … and again. and to me, that certainly sounds like fate intervening.
I’m definitely not a meet cute fan, but I AM a firm believer in soulmates and wow did this book touch on that. it seriously brought tears to my eyes at how special noelle and sam are, and it gives me a lot of hope for finding myself and my future.
the writing was beautiful, sassy, and so relatable - I found myself really connecting to noelle on her balance between finding who you were meant to be and playing it safe of who you already are. it was really so much more than a romance.
I would read this over and over again, and I cannot wait to discuss this one with my book club :’)
