4.0
The winter-storm setting of this mystery was incredibly cozy! And I adored the strong relationships between Mia, Christina, and Grans. The romantic interest was super sweet and the awful ex got his comeuppance, so all was well on the romance front too. :)
The mystery itself was interesting, but didn't pull me in completely. I think in part it was because everything in Mia's life was going at 110%. Romance, business, threats, family issues, even the weather, it was all coming on fast, crime or no crime. The pace made it hard to get to know Mia herself, and it meant she had little time to spare for thoughts about the murder until the end. It ended up feeling a little disjointed.
Overall, to be totally honest, I might have enjoyed this more as a fun, light romance novel without the mystery! But I would still recommend it for those who like witchy and/or wintery cozies.
