The Boss Who Stole Christmas by Jana Aston
3.0
3.5 stars
This is a very good start to a series. I enjoyed the holiday vibe in this book, it was very on-point.
The only thing I didn't like in this book is how there were little instances to show that the H and h were perfect for each other (or at least that they were falling in love). I'm a visual person in a way wherein I need to see (or read) proof that two characters are indeed falling in love, I pay close attention to the journey. I was hoping I'd get a lot of cute scenes of their adventure in Germany.
Sadly, in this novella, it was "fed" to the readers that there's a lot of sexual tension and so the H and h should be together. I'm also not a big fan of hate-to-lovers, so that might be another factor why I didn't enjoy this as much as others did.
Lastly, reading in first-person POV without dual narration is not my preference in romance. I love reading dual perspective/narration in my romance books, so I can get an idea on the thoughts and emotions of both characters.
Nonetheless this was a very short story, so it was a quick read. It's a good holiday novella, so if you're looking for a fast read that will give you Christmas feels, pick this book up.
I can't wait to read the other books in the series!
