'This was a rollercoaster to say the least. I honestly didn’t even know what this book was; thought the cover was cute and thought it was a rom-com… I was very surprised to be only a few pages in to find it was not a wholesome Christmas romance - well not at first.
HJEE is a raunch-com with a really wholesome subplot - which starts after the very sexually graphic first half of the book. I laughed and I definitely cried at the end of this book… It’s definitely a good read especially if these kind of books are your favorite but it’s totally full of tropes. Alas.

Graphic: Sexual content and Emotional abuse
Minor: Pregnancy
