Felix loves his job as a home care nurse. One of his favourite patients, Danya, gave him good advice last year and he is determined to act on it. Hence why he's attending the wedding of his friends and trying to be less insular.
His heart goes pitter-patter when he meets a strapping, bearded male and they have a dance. When his flight to tropical Hawaii later gets snowed off and he finds himself next to said hottie, he seizes the chance to spend more time with him - even if it does mean a farcical trip via rental car through a blizzard.
Kevin and Felix are just so perfectly sweet together. They both have issues and where Kevin has a supportive family, Felix only really has his friends, patients and puzzle club. The meetcute, interfering friends, endearing foibles of our leads are all woven together so well. The characters are fully fleshed out and none are "cookie cutter" stereotypes and I just really enjoyed dropping into their world.
Emotive, funny, heartbreaking and full of love in all varieties!
PS I sang Feliz Navidad at least ten tmes reading this book lol!
