I usually love Christmas romances, but this book mostly revolved around a week long Christmas party, and to be honest there was no holiday cheer happening. The book has 4 different stories, but they all take place or revolve around this party. The first story put me off so badly that it just killed the rest of the book. Like the entire first story is about the heroine just being told over and over how ugly and fat and stupid she is by her father. It was bad.

I did like the Erica Ridley story at the end, and honestly wish that was the only one I had read.

Thanks to Avon for sending me a finished copy to review!
