These Christmas books are the best, and Adora Crooks is quickly becoming one of my favorite writers.

We saw Otto in the 2nd book of the Truth or Dare series when he was a young boy. That was when we met Matteo, too. When Otto needed a kidney in the previous book, one of his father's, Donovan, gave it to him. It was a loving gesture, but one that turned Otto's life upside down. He doesn't want to give up that kidney, because then he feels like he would lose a piece of Donovan. He calls him Dad, but he isn't his biological father. So he hides his current diagnosis with the help of Matteo.

You could see the love Otto had for Naomi, but he was holding it back. You could see the love he had for Matteo, and again he was holding back. Except for that one beautiful night that the three of them got together.

I loved that Adora brought back her other characters of Donovan, Jason & Kenzi. Their love started all of this and it was so appropriate that the Christmas season brought them back together.

I don't want to spoil too much, because I think you should get to laugh, and love, and cry right along with these characters.
