Reviews with content warning for Sexual content - All I Want is You

All I Want is You is a short and sweet holiday romance! It has a great balance of holiday cheer, spice, and emotional moments.

I love Falon Ballard, and will continue to read everything she writes! That being said, this book was a little too on the nose for me. A second chance holiday romance about authors who are writing a second chance holiday romance? Cute, but a little too meta for my tastes. Still, this was cute and exactly what I needed. 3.75 stars

Thank you to Falon Ballard, Putnam Books, Goodreads, and PRH Audio for the free book

This second-chance romance hits all the right notes for the holiday season! Jess and Nick’s dynamic—equal parts rivalry and unresolved feelings—creates the perfect tension as they navigate classic romcom tropes. From the "just one bed" scenario to being snowed in at a cozy inn, each moment sparkles with humor, longing, and the warmth of Christmas magic.

The banter and chemistry between Jess and Nick were delightful, and I loved how their unresolved history unfolded naturally throughout the story. Their secret pining over the years and the ultimate grand romantic gesture made for a swoon-worthy conclusion.

Sarah Naughton and Marwan Salama did a fantastic job narrating, their voices perfectly capturing the humor and emotion of the characters. They truly brought Jess and Nick to life, making the audiobook an even more engaging experience.

If you love festive romcoms with heart, humor, and a satisfying HEA, this book is a must-read! Falon Ballard is definitely an author I’ll be revisiting. 🎄❤️
