When I saw the cover on this book in Netgalley I knew I had to read it. It looked like it would be a fun and entertaining read. I can honestly say that it did not let me down. This book was awesome. It was such a heartfelt, funny book. A Rom-Com like the movie with Sandra Bullock “The Proposal”.
In this story Cinsey Baldwin has just been dumped by her boyfriend over the phone. Yes! I said over the phone. What a jerk!! Well Cinsey is devastated and her co-worker Nick LeCrone invites her to spend the Thanksgiving Holiday with his family instead of alone crying. Cinsey accepts his invitation. I mean what is worse. Spending the holiday with strangers or home crying her eyes out.
Nick is kicking himself. Why did he invite Cinsey to spend the holidays with his family? Because he doesn’t know how to deal with a crying lady. Ugggh could this be a mistake.
He has stressed to his family that she is only a co-worker. But when a pearl ring is on the wrong finger rumors fly and things get worse for Nick. How will he let his mom down without breaking her heart.
Cinsey shows her real side to his family and they are eating her up. Nick is kicking hisself harder. Why does she have to be so perfect? Why can’t she be the mess that she is at work? What does God have in store for him?
I fell in love with the characters in this book. They were so down to earth and sweet. Cinsey is so full of life and she holds back her true self in order to please her father. Nick is sweet, caring fun and a believer. He is stuck in a group that hides his true self. He really comes alive around his family and shows his true nature.
The story was wonderful and it flowed so smoothly. It is a page turner for sure. I could not put this book down. Just reading about Cinsey and Nicks adventure to self discovery is an amazing journey that you would not want to miss. I highly recommend this book to all you romantics out there.

Fun read! As someone who works with actuaries, there were a lot of laughs. Would definitely recommend, loved how it read like my new favorite Hallmark holiday movie.
Zoe M. McCarthy weaves a light, heart warming read on Calculated Risk. Cisney has recently been dumped by a man who has her father's approval. Her coworker, Nick, invites her to his family's house for the Thanksgiving holiday. Over the holiday, both realize the folly of judging a book by its cover and the dangers of assumption. As Cisney's faith grows, her judgement improves and her self-awareness comes into play. I look forward to reading more from Ms. McCarthy.
