I'm not typically a romance reader and I definitely make fun of Hallmark movies, but in 2021 I was in a library for a city-wide festival. They had RaeAnne Thayne's Sleigh Bells Ring and I checked it out on a whim. I loved having an easy palate cleanser read and it's become sort of a tradition to read her Christmas book each year. This year I was lucky enough the receive 2024s book as an ARC. It was a little weird reading it outside of the Christmas season and I found myself reading it very critically. As in, "ugh, she barely noticed this guy last week and now she's in love with him", but I told myself to stop and just enjoy it like I did that first book. I did and I loved it. I loved watching Amanda's journey and seeing her fall in love! Would definitely recommend!!
