This book was the last one on my must-read-before-Christmas list, and I’m honestly surprised how much I loved it. The characters had great banter all around, it was realistic enough in a “you wouldn’t believe my life” kind of way. The book itself probably could have been a little shorter, but I honestly didn’t mind. I loved it and now I’m scoping out the real Coconut Creek.
One of my favorite reads so far! Just loved this story and the characters!

I was so excited to read this book, but honestly it just felt like it was never going to end. It got extremely repetitive and once the tension actually got to lead somewhere, the build up felt anticlimactic.

Fun and easy Christmas read! No 3rd act break-up, no miscommunication. Loved their banter.
Nat & Mateo definitely deserve a book of their own!

honestly this is my second time reading this and i just love everything about this
*Christmas in Coconut Creek* was hands down my best read of November, and it’s officially set the bar for holiday romance for me! This was my first dive into the genre, and I’m so glad I picked this one up. The meet-cute between Frankie and Ophelia was absolute perfection—though I’d call it more of a "meet-funny" than a cute one, given their hilariously awkward first interaction. It was such a refreshing change from the typical romance setup and had me smiling from the start.
The chemistry between Frankie and Ophelia was *fire*, and honestly, the plot never slowed down. It kept me hooked from beginning to end, and the spicy scenes? Let’s just say they were definitely spicy enough to keep the pages turning. Frankie, the MMC, is everything I love in a romance hero: broody, a little broken, but still oh-so-sexy. Plus, the veteran trope? It’s always a winner for me—there’s just something about a hot guy with a little trauma and a lot of heart.
I’m also a huge fan of dual POVs, and this book did it perfectly. Getting both Frankie and Ophelia’s perspectives really allowed me to connect with their individual journeys and their growing relationship.
This book set me up to be *extra* excited for the holidays and gave me that warm, fuzzy feeling I crave in a holiday romance. It was the perfect mix of steamy, sweet, and heartfelt, and I’m so glad I picked it up. If you’re looking for a holiday romance that’ll leave you smiling long after you finish it, *Christmas in Coconut Creek* is definitely the one!
