“To everyone who loves a good Hallmark Christmas movie, but wishes they would just rip each other’s clothes off already.” This book gives you just that.

Only 4.75 stars because I struggled to get through the first few pages but then it was off to the races and I fell in love with this book and these characters. Frankie is a tier one book boyfriend.

Wow! I have to say this book was amazing! I didn’t think there would be a book boyfriend who would top Tristian from The Takeover. But…. Here came Frankie!
What I was expecting and received: a Christmas story full of spice and humour.
What I wasn’t expecting and received: being up until 2:30am crying (in a good way) because of this book.
I have fallen in love with Dirty Delta, including the amazing women that play a part in the book.
The spice = impeccable
The humour = out of this world
The book boyfriends/girlfriends = where can I find at least one?
The holiday cheer = festive
The romance = what dreams are made of
Love love love

2,5 stars for this one.
The plot was great, the writing too, but the amount of nonsense was just too much at times and so annoying.
1) We have a 34-year-old man who has a roommate, the biggest walking red flag in my opinion.
2) The FMC’s best friend has a boyfriend but doesn’t tell about him to the FMC, what kind of friend does that? Then said friend gets engaged a few days later and everyone is shitting rainbows about it. It was so forced and unnecessary. They didn’t know each other so much, just sharing a p*rn account. But also, if this was my friend I wouldn’t be so thrilled about my bestie getting married to someone that she kept as a secret.
3) We are talking about grown-ass adults who start a friends-with-benefits relationship because “I need to teach you how a real man does it”, and once they catch feelings they aren’t able to communicate about said feelings. I expect a lack of communication in a teen couple, but not from a man nearly forty.
I also felt a little bit fooled about this because by the previews it seemed like there would be a lot more coincidences that put the MMCs together, but they found each other immediately and were forced together since the beginning.
Anyway, this is just my opinion, but I think the plot needed a bit more work than this.

4⭐️ this was such a cute holiday read! I’m usually not one for hallmark type books, but this was a SPICY rated R hallmark movie lol. I will say it could have maybe been like 50-100 pages shorter. I felt like it dragged a little bit and I wish they would just accept being together cuz it was a lot of back and forth. The “miscommunication” at like the 90% mark was just unnecessary tbh and seemed so out of character. However, this was one of the funnier romcoms I’ve read I was cracking up at their banter!
