This is a cozy and sweet holiday romance! The premise of this book slightly reminded me of one of my favorite Christmas movies “The Holiday” as it also has a home swap set-up with a similar meet-cute for the burnt-out main character. This novel takes place entirely in the U.S. with small town meeting the big city in a new way. This romance focuses on two women navigating the holiday season without their families for the first time. 
I enjoyed this new and sapphic take on a fave tale. Heads up, this is a closed door romance with lots of pining!
