What a sweet (and spicy) Christmas novella! This short story is well developed and very satisfying. You will feel immersed in the plot and rooting for these two sweet friends- Clara and Evan. The only thing that would’ve made this friends to lovers x fake dating story better was if we got more of a chance in the beginning to see how deep their friendship was. It felt like it needed to be explained throughout rather than be part of setting the stage. Honorable mention to Clara’s awesome and supportive parents! I recommend this for anyone looking for a solid Christmas novella.

It's a sapphic Christmas novella. Despite being only 142 pages, it took me a week to finish because it lacked interest. It didn't offer anything special or new.

This was sensitive and sweet with a perfect amount of spice.  It’s honest and genuine and a perfect seasonal read. The way Evan and Clara openly communicate with each other is refreshing and beautiful to read and so many of those conversations had me bursting into tears because of the obvious love and affection they have for each other and the way they allow each other to be their authentic selves. More tears were shed over Clara’s parents who were a perfect combination of funny and sweet. Just joyous. This was well paced and so much is packed into those 150 pages. I want more but in a “I love these characters so much I’d read about every day of their lives” not a “this was lacking” way.
