After catching her boyfriend cheat on her, Taylor turns to her bestie Weston for comfort. Weston decides it’s time to let her know his feelings by making Taylor go on the the twelve “holidates” she had planned for her ex.

This was a cute Christmas novella about two best friends that don’t realize they’re in love with each other. I’m always a big fan of the friends to lovers trope so was excited to read this one. It’s the perfect feel good read for this time of year with some humor thrown in thanks to the dates not going as planned and Weston’s cantankerous grandma.

Although a bit predictable at times, I did really enjoy this story. I thought the holidates were cute and a fun take on a holiday romance. If you’re looking for some holiday cheer then this is the book for you.

Cute but too short to really fall for the characters. I liked the revenge for breaking her heart part though!

Very cute! Just too short as a novella to get to know the characters really well.

Cute and short holiday novella!

Taylor has planned out 12 Dates for Christmas with her boyfriend, only to catch him cheating on her during her first surprise. In steps Weston, her childhood best friend, who gives Taylor the dates she had planned. This book was a cute and quick friends to lovers holiday romance. The dates were fun to follow along with while I rooted them on from the sidelines!
