This was a fun book! Cosy Christmas vibes, steamy romance, and empowering characters overcoming their challenges.
It was great to see an exploration of some more complex themes (particularly around shame, narcolepsy, going against people's old perceptions and the influence of religion), although it would've been nice to see these all explored a bit further.
I have not read the other book in the series but I will definitely be adding it to my list.
Thank you to HarperCollins Australia, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC!
