3.5/5

When Perla agrees to convince her ex-boyfriend, Gael, to star in an upcoming film project, she doesn't expect to be snowed-in and pretending to be his girlfriend at Christmas. It's short, enjoyable second chance romance.

4/5

This was a super fun modern retelling of It's a Wonderful Life. Bailey George has been stretched too thin by the demands her hometown and its Winter Wonderfest have on her, and she's ready for a much deserved vacation. Instead, an emergency means Bailey's once again in charge of making sure Wonderfest is a success, and even Maria Hatcher's return to the town isn't enough to make Bailey feel anything other than frustrated by her obligations...

sebrittainclark I thought the interludes from the magical drag queens, specifically Clara Angel, were super fun and a great way to bring in the angelic element of the movie. I did get fairly frustrated by Bailey and her over-commitment to large projects and inability to say no, but that's kind of the point of the character. It was a fun read that followed the beats of the original story while adding it's own spin. 12mo

3/5

This was a quick listen about a relationship developing from friends to something more over Hanukkah. Unfortunately, Rachel and Oz were frustratingly oblivious to both their own and the other's feelings until the very end of the book. I may still check out the other two books in the series, since it was a quick, fun listen.

peanutnine I read the second book in this series last year and enjoyed it! I purposely skipped this first one cause I don't like the unrequited love trope 12mo

4.5/5

I loved this just as much as the first book in the series. It manages to be both steamy and really dig into what family means. I got a little frustrated with Kallum's choices during the early part of the book, but I loved where the relationship between Kallum and Winnie ended up.

4/5

Beat and Melody will receive a million dollar payout if they can achieve a Christmas miracle: reunite their mothers' band live on TV on Christmas Eve. Quickly the viewers become as invested in Beat and Melody's relationship and the drama surrounding their mothers. It's a fun and steamy holiday read.
