I wanted to finish this book in time for Christmas, but New Years Day works too. The blurb made this read like a Hallmark movie. and while it definitely had a majority of the tropes, it touched on some surprising topics. I think that the author handled the themes of emotional abuse, grief and alcoholism well. 

However, I didn't find myself connecting the with the characters. I wanted to love Noelle and have her be my book girlfriend but I just couldn't. Her chemistry with Miriam felt forced and the  whole book just had weird pacing.
