The supernatural side of the story comes a little out of nowhere and doesn't entirely seem to fit with the tone of the story, but once Zoey begins her second December and her matchmaking mission, I got much more into the concept. I did struggle with the way she panders to Scott, who is clearly an arse, but it does fit with managing her heartbreak and leads to a better place.

After the initial surprise the book just got more festive and joyous. Some of the attempted matches were brilliantly misplaced, and Zoey was definitely a little blind to a few people's true natures, but the way things begin to work out is so lovely. And I was particularly pleased by the epilogue which filled me with Christmas joy!

A sweet, simple but really lovely Christmas book that's the perfect December read.

I really appreciated the northern accent in the audiobook.
Good predictable festive story! Nothing not to like if you’re into hallmark style Christmas stories!
