Your typical queer holiday romance, complete with big city transplant rediscovering love for her small mountain town as she works to save its charm. I wound up hating the last 2 hours after feeling so-so on the rest of the book. The drama explosion that happened was a little much. I also got tired of the narration "right where I needed her" during every intimate scene. It was cute once. Then it became redundant and irritating.

This isn’t a reflection of the book itself, but the audio narrator also pronounced latke as “lot-key,” which derailed me for several minutes.
