The Wake-Up Call by Beth O'Leary

hopeful lighthearted relaxing medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Loveable characters? Yes

4.5

A darling story with minimal, but effective spice. Izzy and Lucas are colleagues at struggling rural inn who "hate each other" after a misunderstanding at a Christmas party. They begrudgingly work together to save the inn from bankruptcy. I'm thrilled we didn't spend too much time working out the misunderstanding and having it cause more confusion.
