I should have just given this up but I wanted to finish it. I kept hoping I would like it better. But this is so not my book. 400 pages and still, the characters felt so flat to me. Lifeless. The love story was not my cup of tea at all. Does Nolan ever mention anything else but her body? It's all about her looks. They barely spend time together not having sex. Then after two weeks they're in love? What?? I'm so glad I'm finally done reading this.

The perfect feel good, festive, and fun story. Just adorable- gobbled it right up!

There's so much fun here- a delicious Bridgertonesque, ex-boyband hero meets a curvy, plus-sized actress (and porn star)- his new costar? Ah, I just loved Bee. I loved see a plus-sized heroine that owns all parts of herself, who's confident and secure and whose life doesn't revolve around body insecurity. And I loved how Nolan falls for her. They have such a steamy connection, but also a really sweet one. I was charmed by them both, and I loved the mix of humor and heart- some subtle layers here around sexuality and entertainment and self-actualization. And the festive isn't too strong (though I love all the festive)- it's the right balance of romance and holiday.

Such a fun idea, and I just adored it. Plus- could this cover be any cuter?! But don't be fooled- this one def is still full of holiday spice. Oh what fun it is!

4.5*, rounded up because I couldn’t put it down.

This is unapologetically sexy, silly and funny. I loved the premise, the characters, their chemistry and the humour was exactly what I needed. Will it work for everyone? Absolutely not, but it definitely worked for me.
