I liked this one; reading the growth of their relationship and chemistry together was fun, and throw in a big town construction project, with Cat as a strong, confident BOSS, and it was great. Good Christmas vibes without being too sugary sweet or religious.

I enjoyed Mr Fixer Upper when I read it earlier this year but decided to keep this one till nearer to Christmas but this just wasn’t for me. I found myself getting bored about halfway through when it felt like nothing was happening to progress the story, felt like a lot of going round in circles. I didn’t warm to Noah who spent far too long judging Cat despite not knowing her and ignoring everyone telling him he was wrong.

There is no mention of Cat having an eating disorder but her relationship with food, i.e. constantly restricting what she’s eating in order to maintain her shape, could be triggering to those with eating disorders/in recovery.
