This a really sweet Christmas love story. We have a black and queer twist on The Holiday, where 2 women swap homes for the holidays and find love along the way. I love the combination of coming out and small town romamce that we get with each MC. I wish we figured out a bit more about Bee's work issues and Clover's future plans, and their relationships overall and that the story was longer overall. If you're looking for a cozy holiday read, this perfectly fits the bill.
