Let me start of by saying, I'm a fan of the author's previous novels but couldn't connect with this story. While filled with quirky characters, I felt like the plot stayed surface level instead of delving deeper into the characters' lives.. Positioned as Christmas story, there were elements but not enough cheer to be classified as a holiday romance.

While the characters dealt with fame, backstabbing friendships and are struggling to push beyond parents' expectations, everything felt tied up too quickly to be true.. If you're seeking a light-hearted romance, its a good book to curl up with on the couch, That being said, for those readers that want to connect with the story and its characters, I feel the story didn't quite crack the surface.

This book was sent to me by Netgalley for review. Quirky likable characters with a lovely setting…in the snow…a ski lodge…family dynamics and friendship…new love. Books by this author are always great for an afternoon of enjoyment. Cozy up in a comfy chair…let the story transport you to a land of snow.
