If you're looking to get into the holiday spirit with some giggles, fake dating & forced proximity, then you should read Snowed In by Catherine Walsh.
Megan is dreading going home for the holidays. She hasn't returned to her small Ireland village in five years after leaving her golden boy fiance at the altar—"ruining" his life and her reputation. Before she heads home, she bumps into a childhood acquaintance at a pub who is also dreading going home for the holidays (he has daddy issues). To help solve each other's problems and avoid awkward holiday conversations, they agree to fake date and be each other's dates to their families' festivities.
What to expect:
❄️ Holiday rom com
❄️ 1st person, dual POV
❄️ Runaway bride
❄️ Fake dating
❄️ Forced proximity
❄️ Friends to lovers
❄️ Small town romance (in Ireland)
While this book is part of the Fitzpatrick Christmas series, a series of interconnected standalones, I did not read the first book and had no problem following this storyline (book 1 focuses on a different sibling/couple). I'll likely go back and read the first book, since I really liked this one!
I easily read this book in one sitting because it is fast-paced and too dang cute. The character chemistry was believable and relatable, and I ate up their banter (even if there were some borderline cringy moments).
This is my first book I've read by Catherine Walsh, and I'll be checking out more of her work.
This book is available on Kindle Unlimited for my fellow subscribers.
Forever acquired the publishing rights to this book, it will be traditionally published and re-released October 1, 2024. A sincere thank you to the Forever team for gifting me a physical ARC.
