This was so cute!! Probably my favorite of Josie Silver’s books I’ve read so far (I’ve read all but Two Lives of Lydia Bird). The characters are lovable, I loved the setting of NYC, the plot was surprising but expectant and realistic enough that it kept you hooked.
The beginning was a bit slow and took me a while to get into since it was a lot of character writing but I came to appreciate it more and finished the last 200 pages much more quickly.
I also loved that this was set during the holidays but it wasn’t too hallmark-y and in your face about it.
Very cozy romance book to break up some of my fantasy reads ❄️🫶🏼
