GAHHHHH!!!! JOSIE SILVER HAS DONE IT AGAIN!!! HER BOOKS JUST GET BETTER AND BETTER!! WHAT A CHARMING, COZY, ADORABLE, HEARTWARMING, EMOTIONAL, MAGICAL, ROMANTIC, HEARTBREAKING AND BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN HOLIDAY STORY!!! OH. MY. HEART! YA'LL KEEP YOUR TISSUES HANDY BECAUSE YOU WILL NEED THEM🤧!!I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK SOOOOO MUCH!!! HANDS DOWN MY FAVORITE CHRISTMAS BOOK FOR 2023!! ❄️💙☃️🎄💙
After losing her mother and escaping an emotionally abusive relationship, Iris moves to New York City from London with her suitcase and treasured gelato maker. Iris is determined to reclaim her life while living in the one place that brought her mother happiness and where she fell in love. Strolling a street fair in Little Italy she stumbles upon a Gelateria shop with a familiar door. Immediately Iris realizes that it looks like the same door in a photo of her mothers. Could this be the same gelato store that her mother visited and left with the family's secret recipe? Curiosity has her wandering inside, desiring some gelato, she meets Gio Belotti and quickly learns that the famous family gelato recipe is lost! Is it really lost? I mean Iris does hold the secret recipe but could she share it without betraying others? Will the secrets she holds and lies that our told become too much? The problem is that Iris is falling in love with Gio!
A Winter in New York is so much more than a holiday romance! It is about love, loss, grief, family, loyalty, hope, redemption and healing. I loved all the witty banter, secret dates and amazing chemistry between Iris and Gio. Do not even get my started on Gio because he is everything you could possibly want and more in a man, swooning🫠🥰! The way the Belotti family fully embraced Iris was so touching and just so lovely. All of the secondary characters were amazing!
Overall, I was completely immersed from start to finish! If you enjoy Emily Henry and Katherine Center then this is a must read for you!! Now I need to go eat some vanilla gelato 🍨!!!! I cannot recommend it enough and it deserves infinite stars!!! ♾️♾️♾️♾️♾️💫💫💫💫💫
