I would've loved this book had it been about 100 pages shorter. 

I know this is the third book Chelsea ever put out, so with that in mind, it's pretty dang cute. The plot, the characters, the possibility of more stories to unfold featuring our favorite meddling side characters. It was all holly, jolly perfection. 

It just didn't need to be almost 400 pages.

The slow burn could've been sped up, and a lot of the random fluff could've been left on the floor of the editing room. I found myself kind of wanting to skip to the end just to see them get their HEA rather than spend more time reading extra smut scenes.

The perfect holiday read. Read if you love;

8% in and I am head-over-heels in love with Theo.

Chapter 28 is so fucking hot. It has no business being as hot as it is.

64% THEO WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK?!?!

71% Oh my God, Theo. Oh my God.

FINALLY! A MMC who can only have a realistic number of orgasms in a night!

75% Whoa. Theo! The filth! The praise! I think I blushed just reading it!

85% There’s the freak out! A bit later than I imagined. And a bit different. He knows he’s being an ass.

********************************************
Ok so where did this book even come from?!?! It showed up in my KU recommendations after I read a few Christmas books and I clicked it cause it sounded cute. And it was! So so cute! But also sexy as hell!

Theo is 100% Grade A Book Boyfriend material!

And I like Bridget. Some may think she’s too forgiving, but to me, it reads as emotionally mature. She understands that Theo has other commitments, other priorities. And she’s forgiving of his idiot moments instead of flipping out and blowing things out of proportion.

Uggh, I really loved this book!

Okay, this author is one to watch! I seriously hope she continues this series because I am hooked! I fell in love with the town and the characters. Moments of heat, moments of sweetness, and a story that brings it all together. I just loved the way the characters were less than perfect, and so very real. I couldn’t put it down.
