DNF

I LOVED THIS ONE! Best friends to lovers & the perfect amount of spice made this a great holiday read.

I’m a big softie and this book was mushy enough at the end for me to forget its many transgressions. the characters were sweet and they all find love and happiness in the end

kinda toxic but it adds plot 3.5 also why did they fake date for only like two chapters

Okay 4 star book HOWEVERR I think in the category of Christmas/holiday books this is definitely a 5 star read!

It had EVERYTHING! Spice, small town, amazing side characters, made me giggle… ugh!! I absolutely LOVED it!

1. Everything is Christmas themed WAY TO MUCH. The town? Mistletoe. The character names? Nick, Holly, Noel, Merry.. like?

This was so dumb I barely made it through one chapter. These type of Hallmark-y romances just are not for me. Especially when I can't vibe with the music choices...

3.5
Cute Hallmark vibes but with a little bit of smut and spicy

DNF This book was not bringing me any holiday joy. I realized I was 20% in and hated both of the main characters, so I flipped through the book to see if they improved and it didn't look like they did. I checked a few goodreads reviews which confirmed that they didn't really get any better. They were both just immature and Noel's rivalry with Nick's ex was just toxic. I don't need to read books that don't make me happy.

Finally a Christmas romance that wasn't epically cringey ...

If you are looking for a cute, spicy Christmas romance than this is it! I loved how this book puts an importance on family and friends as well as romantic relationships. It has a heart to it that a lot of other Christmas romances tend to lack.

I was a little skeptical because friends to lovers is not always my favorite trope, but I was pleasantly surprised how much I loved this one! I was rooting for Nick and Noel from the first chapter ans loved reading their story.
