Grumpy and Sunshine. Tradesman and Baker. Lumberjack and Bumble Bee. 
+ two amazing kids.

This Christmas, hallmark-esque story was a overall very anjoyable read. I liked seeing how the relationship between Paxton and Baxter, as well as the kids' grew and evolved.
The mental health rep and family dynamics were very real and well portrayed. The good and the bad.

The story was way smuttier than I expected. Maybe a bit too much even. (For me, and I do like smut.)
I wish there had been a bit more story. I did enjoy the story that was told but I just wish we had seen a bit more on some points.
There was no

third act break up

though, so that was nice.

I like how both guys were able to open up to each other, themselves and others in the end. I really liked both dads and their kids. I loved the kids.
The speeches near the end were very sweet & emotional and I enjoyed the ending.

I am interested in reading the second book in this series about Paxton's brother!
