Make the Season Bright by Ashley Herring Blake

Go to review page

3.5

I’m having mixed feelings about this. There was so much that I enjoyed, but also a fair amount that I just really didn’t.  I will say, Ashley Herring Blake’s stories are always messssssy but not in a bad way. Messy in an entertaining way with great spice. Which this absolutely fits that. However, I fear I hold a grudge WAY too hard to fully get on board with this reconciliation 🫣 I need to think on this for my final rating. I may end up changing it. 

Highlights: 
- Romance: FF
- Holiday romance
- second chance romance
- childhood friends to lovers to…idk a lot happens lol
- Snowed in

Did not finish book. Stopped at 22%.
2 comments about how the other women were wearing too much makeup while the FMC ~doesn’t wear makeup~ were enough for me to call it quits on this ✌🏼

3.0

I’m struggling to rate this because I didn’t dislike it per se….. but at the same time, with the title “Railed by Krampus” and the way I’ve seen this book talked about, I feel almost mislead? For a 192 page novella that is talked about and titled as if it’s Krampus erotica, there was a *lot* of story…and undeveloped world-building it I’m being honest. We’ll see what star rating I end up sticking with.
