relaxing
medium-paced

- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

I was SO excited to read this. Because of all the great reviews and the description. And I am disappointed.
The main character was described as badass. But was she a badass? At times I found Verity annoying. And any adult person knows that chocolate and dogs don't mix. The love interest obviously is the perfect male - gentle, funny, tall, super sexy, hard working, takes no crap... The sex scenes were so short, it seemed like the sex lasted two pumps and he was done. But of course he was amazing!
I expected a lot more. It didn't even give me the Christmas feel! Ugh!!!
