It took me a bit to ease into this story because I was listening to the audio and I wasn't a fan of the narrator. Once I got passed that I was able to get into this lovely grumpy and sunshine Christmas story. I was also a little scared to like Sully, but thankfully she wore me down and I think the reasoning behind her tough exterior was nicely explained. I was expecting a little more spice from this (I give it a 2.5/5 flames) having read a lot more of Herrera's work, but the story did ultimately need to unfold to show the work the characters were putting into their relationship and personal growth.

Anyway, a read I recommend and enjoyed overall!
