I love a good Christmas romance and what makes this one stands out from others is the strangers/almost enemies to lovers trope and that it’s actually the female main character that is the grouch!
My Lucky Night was a beautiful mix of comedic relief, holiday cheer, a little bit of drama to keep you on edge, and spice.

The story
Cassie has always felt like Christmas is a particularly unlucky time of year for her. There have been breakups and mishaps galore. But this year, Cassie meets charming Frenchman Nico in the coffee and donut queue when she thinks he is pushing forward. When he overhears she needs help locating the sold out Icon hairdryer for her boss, he offers to help locate one in exchange for her help on his Christmas activity list. One magical (and pretty lucky) evening follows… there is hunting down of Christmas lights, a Christmas dinner and party with ice skating, all set with London as a backdrop.
My thoughts
I am definitely reading this series backwards

This Christmas Novella was super cute with just the right amount of sweet & spiciness! This book is the second book in the Ten Year Crush Series and can be read as a standalone book (it is my first book that I have read by Olivia Spring).
Cassie has had some bad luck over the years at Christmas time. From giving the wrong
(embarrassing) gift to a boyfriend’s mom to a few boyfriends breaking up with her. This year since her family is off doing their own things for the holidays, she is planning a nice, quiet week-long vacation to do as she pleases. While she is out with her cousin and godson, they visit Santa where Cassie is put on the spot when Santa asks what she wants for her Christmas gift when her godson answers for her…a boyfriend!
She literally runs into the man who will change her outlook on Christmas when she is on the phone with her cheating, jerk boss who expects Cassie to drop everything to find his mistress the most sought after gift of the season. As she tries to tell her boss that it is impossible, this man (Nicolas), whom she sees as a gorgeous but rude French man, may be the only person who can help her find this gift!
But first, she needs to help him! As Cassie helps Nicolas check off items from his to-do/see list, she begins to see just how wrong she was about him. They share many of the same views and have so much in common. Did Santa grant her Christmas wish?
I love the bantering between these two characters. It is a fun and quick read! This insta-romance does show that you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series - My Paris Romance to see what the future holds for Cassie & Nicolas!
Thank you to Olivia Spring & BookSirens for this advanced reader's copy in return for my honest review.

My Lucky Night has been my first festive read this year and it's been a great one to start with!
Cassie hates christmas after having a series of terrible ones.
She has been tasked by her awful boss to buy a last minute christmas present.. but it's the most wanted gift of the year and already sold out everywhere.
When she meets handsome, Frenchman Nico she finds him rude and arrogant, but he promises to help her find the christmas gift for her boss and in return, she shows him around London at Christmas time.
This is the perfect, steamy, enemies to lovers, romcom.
I instantly felt festive reading this one, Christmas in London is the perfect setting!
Olivia Springs writing is brilliant. Even though this is a short novella, it's a great story and although the enemies part does not last long, it doesn't feel rushed or unbelievable.
I love the characters and whilst this can be read as a standalone, it's even more enjoyable that we get to read more about them in the next book, My Paris Romance.
Thank you so much to Olivia Spring for including me in the birthday book tour for My Lucky Night and sending me a copy to read and review!

Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My Lucky Night by Olivia Spring
Cassie's bad luck around Christmas time has made her somewhat of a grinch. However, when a handsome stranger crosses her path, he might be the one to change her luck and make this season magical again.
This steamy little novella was a delightful read to put me into the mood for Christmas season! I was a little scared at first because one of the Mcs is French, and I've rarely seen good representation of bilingual French character. But, this one was great! No spelling mistakes in the little snippets of French and it flowed naturally! I loved how Nicolas had a list of Holiday experiences he wanted to go through, he's my type of man alright! Enemies to lovers in a novella is a difficult one to pull-off, especially if the main characters are strangers at the beginning, this one felt a little rushed, but their connection felt genuine so it did not bother me much. I actually really enjoyed the single point of view of the story, leaving Nicolas a little mysterious to the reader and having us wonder what's hiding behind that gorgeous accent and flirty words.
Thank you to Olivia for sending me a digital copy of her book for free in exchange for an honest review. As always all thoughts and opinions are honest and my own.

The PERFECT book to get you into the holiday spirit!
I started this book this morning to get into that Christmas spirit before putting up the Christmas tree, and let me tell you, it was perfect! Even though this book is a novella, I loved the characters, it was short, sweet and spicy, and want more!! It'd be so nice to see the characters again to see how their HEA is going! Also, CLo got me hooked on French accents (iykyk) and this just livened that right on up again! So cute!
A huge thank you to the author for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review!
