Sweet on You by Carla de Guzman

3.0

After a few too many cutesy Christmas romances (totally my fault), I decided to take a break and spread the holiday cheer over the other 11 months. Sweet on You is my latest Christmastime story, and it is charming and fun. The romance happens pretty quickly, like the whole thing happens in about a month, so that's something to keep in mind if you don't like instalove. I'm not crazy about it, but instalove does make for a nice bit of escapism in a cute and entertaining RomCom, which is what we have here. Gabriel and Sari start out as rivals, and we have lots of banter and pranks. For me, some of that was a little too over the top and it felt like childish flirting, but it was still amusing to read, and it was great for lifting the spirits. There was maybe a bit too much time spent in the characters' heads, but overall the story is fast-paced and a low angst, easy read.
