This was such an easy 5 star read for me. I was looking for something quick and light to read for the holidays and I finished this in 2 days and did not want it to end. That’s how much I loved it. The banter between Lauren and Will was perfect and I caught myself giggling to myself quite often. The dual POVs were a nice added touch and, to be honest, I appreciate that it was a clean romance. I also just really like a good road trip story. I’m a sucker for a good cheesy Hallmark Christmas story, so if that’s your vibe then definitely give this a shot!

Good story, clean romance, part grumpy/sunshine, and mild enemies to lovers and brother’s best friend tropes. I liked that we get a lot of dialogue and interaction between Will and Lauren. I think this one would have been better if Will hadn’t flirted with every woman he met while having deep feelings about Lauren.
