Niente di speciale, la coppia di MC non mi ha molto coinvolta.

This book is cute. I enjoyed it very much. Clara and Nash have great chemistry.

If you're looking for a quick, fluffy holiday read then this will be perfect for you. The author did a great job of crafting a novella that still managed to explore characters in-depth without feeling rushed or forced.

I have never read a Nutcracker re-telling, but I have to say this one definitely worked for me! And the author didn't dwell on the 'benefits' part of Clara and Nash's fwb arrangement. In the story, there is much more care taken with the 'friendship' side, and that helped make the romance so much more convincing, especially for such a short story. By the end, I was rooting for them HARD!

As far as steamy holiday books go, this one might be one of my new favourites. Highly recommend!
