Did not love this as much as the first two. Although I do love the characters, the story was kind of predictable and some things felt a little forced. Nonetheless, an extremely cute romance.

With Christmas stories, both movies and books, my favorites will always be the ones that build on the foundation of the Holiday. Where the storyline can't just edit out a few scenes or chitchat for the story/characters to easily be transported to another season.

This wasn't festive throughout, yet it would have been weird if it had been, due to the disaster.

AnnCrystal No, this was not Christmassy in that way. This story was incredibly more than about just celebrating.

It is about showing “Good Will“ towards neighbors and strangers, about that special kind of “Hope“ and “Faith in the Unbelievable“ that the magic of Christmastime inspires in many, and about what the “Magic of Christmas“ could mean for a child.

AnnCrystal I can watch Christmas rom-coms and Christmas dramas non-stop, yet I usually struggle reading these because romance and drama are normally way outside my reading genres. While it took until chapter three to find this interesting, it truly tells about the strength of Lucy Score's storytelling power to be able to pull me into this story so incredibly.

AnnCrystal My mom's tragic stories about growing up with an abusive, acholic mother did echo as I read Noah's backstory and how it shaped his character. I believe Lucy Score wrote Noah with respect to her character and to her readers. The facts were light, yet heavily written into the story. Someone with more personal experiences with an abusive, acholic parent may struggle.

AnnCrystal I can say that this does make the second book in my reading journey to make me cry. Noah did renew/reinforce my understanding and appreciation for my mom.

While this book was not about the True meaning of Christmas in the religious sense, nor the Santa-kind of Magic of Christmas. What this did capture is the essence of Christmas.

AnnCrystal This was a haters to lovers rom-com. Yet it was wonderfully more. It had the best kind of ingredient that can be woven into any story, Hope.

The ending was perfect ☺️📚🌲💖🎄💝💝💝.

A fun, enemies to lovers romance with a lot of spice once it finally happens. Cat is a strong, intelligent, go getter. Not a literary masterpiece, but it‘s not meant to be. Book #119 in 2024

Funny, festive, and fiesta, this novella available on KU was a great holiday mood read. Pretty spicy, I especially enjoyed the HGTV show goes to a small town set up. #BookspinBingo #readyourkindle
