Cruel Winter with You by Ali Hazelwood
1.0
orry no billionaire control freak romances for me in 2024 and beyond. The whole story icked me out. I didn’t feel like it even leaned into the Christmas aspect of the book as much as the hero was a terrible guy, but genius so it waved away the red flags.
Full review: a woman, Jamie, returns home to spend Christmas with her father. He tells her to walk (during a snowstorm) to their neighbors to borrow a freaking pan. There she meets her best friend's brother, Marc, who she hasn't seen in a while. The long and tedious story follows Jamie first meeting Marc, and her realizing he had feelings for her. But because of her own reasons (good ones honestly) she doesn't trust it.
Look Marc is not a good character. Too much is told about how he was just mean and nasty to his sister, but never to Jamie til she rightfully sided with his sister once, and then he just had a rude nickname for her. Everything is pretty much excused cause he was a secret genius and now a billionaire. The whole story was weird and I hated it.
