“The Most Wonderful Crime of the Year” has the recipe for the ideal Christmas romcom for me. It’s fun and festive, it has a strong romance with lots of flirty banter and chemistry, it’s a book about writers, and it has a well done mystery subplot. Ethan and Maggie live out every reader’s dream as they become embroiled in the plot of their favorite writer at her fabulous home in England in the UK. They had some of the best chemistry I’ve read in a romance all year. I loved how the author added depth with the recurring theme of women being gaslit and the mental gymnastics that leads to. Far and away the best Christmas romance I’ve read!
