Although this book wasn't centred around Christmas as much as I'd have liked, and being a tad predictable, it was still a very good read. With all the elements of a good chick lit, this kept me turning pages till the very end.

I really enjoyed learning what it's like backstage to work at an Opera Theater. The romance was fun as two opposites always seem to attract one another. What I never like is people jumping into bed together one minute, then getting mad at each other and being sorry for their intimacy. And the ending seemed a bit anti-climactic to me. Most of it was lots of fun, though.

Thoroughly sweet and readable Christmas chicklit! And I loved the fact that it was set in the London opera world. My only gripe is that the author (and/or her editor) seem to have a massive aversion to commas, and the lack of them made some sentences difficult to follow. I'm not mentioning this because I want to be a "This is WRONG!" grammar Nazi, but when there are sentences like, "I'm going to get you Mary" or "I'm upstairs John" without commas, it's REALLY jarring, and pulls me right out of the world of the book. Plus it can change the meaning sometimes (hence the book "Let's eat Grandma!" :-))

I'm definitely keen to read some other books by Jules Wake, but I hope they don't all have this problem!

Very sweet quick romance with a You’ve got mail vibe. The two main characters bound over book recommendations that I am now adding to my TBR
