A cozy romance perfect for this time of year. 

Nashville & Milwaukee are key features in this book which made my bookstagram heart happy. (Follow @wellreadmegs if you haven't already) This was my book club's pick for December and it was lovely. I'm apparently continuing on with my fake-dating trope reads with this one. 

Sadie and Max were both stubborn as hell which got a little annoying towards the end of the book because they were both getting in their own way and self-sabotaging. Aside from that Max and Sadie had some incredible moments - especially in Banff. It was exactly what you want in a Holiday romance. 

Gran was the best character and she was so wholesome - especially when they went out with Max and Sadie. This book reminded me of the TV show Nashville - but a little less dramatic. But a lot of the same vibes. 

I really enjoyed this read and looking forward to more cozy holiday reads.
