Gwen is a baker living in a small town, recovering from a failed engagement. She’s preparing for her sister’s wedding, as everyone tiptoes around her. Logan moves in next door and what ensures is a Christmas rom-com with heart, and major hallmark vibes. Both are coping with quite toxic families, and find comfort in each other.

I liked Logan’s emotional maturity, and the depiction of Gwen’s plus size experience felt genuine and not tokenism. I did find the inner monologues of both characters quite lengthy, which took some of the suspense out of the story. The small town vibes were very cosy, and it was a sweet read as we move into the Christmas season. A good read for anyone who enjoys small town romance, fake dating and family drama.

This review is based on an advance reader copy provided Blue Crow Publishing and NetGalley.

This book was a cute holiday read that reminded me of a hallmark movie. The book was easy to follow and the characters were relatable but the overall plot didn’t have much substance and fell flat in places.

I am not usually one for closed door romance but this one wasnt so bad. I enjoyed the christmas references throughout the book and overall enjoyed both of the main characters.

Loved One Sweet Holiday! What a lovely romance centered around a delightful small town in North Carolina. Full of all the best Christmas traditions one can imagine, from apple orchard hay rides to holiday parties written so vividly it feels like you’re there drinking spiked eggnog too! I’m not normally one to go for closed door romances, but the build up and tension was so hot with these two leads was worth every page! Don’t miss it!

Exactly the type of Hallmark Movie book I needed to escape reality for a little while.

Small town, a hot Scot, a bakery? It’s literally my dream, except ya know I’m happily married and all. Gwen is a small town baker with some big dreams, and a lot of expectations put on her. After cancelling her wedding last year, she’s mortified to discover her ex is engaged again. As much as she’d like to escape, her sister is getting married, so she figures she’ll stick it out. Then, a mysterious Scottish man appears and her life turns upside down. Can he teach her a little thing or two about business, life, and the true meaning of Christmas?

This is really cute little hallmark book with your favorite small town girl and Scot man 🥰.

It was funny, some predictable but cute and fluffy to read.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

DNF’ed after about 40%. I just didn’t feel connected to any of the characters and didn’t feel a need to know anything more about them.

I absolutely loved this book.
I found this book on netgalley and because I liked the idea of it and because the author was new to me , I really wanted to try it. I’m so glad I did. I loved the lead characters who where, in my opinion, really well presented. They both has problems and insecurities and nightmares family members.
I would definitely recommend this book and the author, and now I’m off to Amazon to find her other books😁

Thank you to Netgalley for this E-ARC. This can be totally be read as a standalone but I went back and read the other two books because Gwen does come out. With that being said this was my FAVORITE Jasmin Falls couple and story..Let me tell you I just booked my flight to where ever Logan lives because let me tell you that man is life. This story just flowed and I was here for the insta-love it gave my black heart a little jolt of happiness.

This got off to a cute, quirky romcom start, and I was excited for the holiday element! It had all the things - a handsome stranger, small town vibes and an unexpected romance. Unfortunately the plot and character development fell flat for me and I found the ending to be quite rushed.

I love hallmark movies 🍿 and this would make a good one.

This is my first book by Lucy Day and I enjoy her writing style. I enjoyed the fact that her main character, Gwen, wasn't depicted as your 'standard' rom-com female lead, but as someone with more depth and physically was 'plus-sized' and I resonated with her in many ways. There were moments where I lost the connection with between Gwen and Logan, however, it was still a feel-good story to read during Christmas time!

Do you have a warm fuzzy blanket? A warm mug of hot coco? Subtle christmas jazz in the background? Turn on the christmas tree, and get ready to dive right into a hallmark movie. Everything sings chrismas joy, steamy romantic moments, and the crazyness of the holidays. It's everything I was looking for, and then some. I look forward to pulling to book of the selves next christmas.

I just adore #LucyDay’s writing! She creates books that make me happy and rooting for the characters to live happily ever after. #OneSweetHoliday is one that had me feeling joy inside and loving the connection between Gwen & Logan! This series is the sweetest. I was so excited to return to #JasmineFalls!
Thank you, Lucy Day, Blue Crow, & @netgalley for my copy! All opinions are my own.

Thank you Lucy Day and NetGalley for the advance read!

I absolutely loved this book.
Gwen, a small business owner to her beloved bakery who had an unfortunate breakup before her wedding day and Logan, boy next door who is in town for Gwen’s sister’s wedding.

Gwen was one to never ask for help and Logan noticed this right from the start. She always wanted to please others without taking a step back and taking care of herself. Logan does everything in his power to make her see this and helps her navigate her sister’s wedding, work life and her personal life and helps her realize she deserves love too.

Such a cute read and I loved the character development and story line.

Thank you so much to Lucy Day and NetGalley for sending me an ARC of this book!

One Sweet Holiday is such a cute holiday rom com! I could totally see this being a Hallmark Channel Christmas movie! It has all of the necessary components: broken hearted small town girl, ultra rich and hot boy next door and an upcoming woman said broken hearted girl needs a date for.

Gwen Griffin, a small town cafe owner, had an epic break up that everyone in town knows about. And with her sisters upcoming wedding, she is feeling even more alone. Enter boy next door: hot Logan who’s visiting for the wedding. He is almost too good to be true. But slowly, Gwen begins to open up to him and tries to believe in love again. I would have loved just a little more spice but it was a cute & easy read!

This is such a fun lighthearted but yet plot driven Christmas book. It made me happy - seeing him fall first & help her through her flaws that were hindering her. Lucy Day describes a love that everyone hopes for.

Thank you NetGalley and Lucy Day for this ARC!

This was such a good holiday romcom! I loved it from page 1! Story line was great! Character development was amazing! Such a good cozy holiday book!

5/5.
This book brought me back to the holiday seasons when I would spend time with my grandma and watched Hallmark movies. This story reminded of one of those movies we watched and so I felt hooked from the beginning. Plus a Scottish hottie? I was even more sold.
A story about a Scottish bazillionare who meets the quiet girl in the small town who owns a baker that recently got out of a marriage and the season is approaching for her sister's marriage. They are both at different points in their lives, but also share very many similarities when it comes to their families and spending the holiday seasons with them...which is what they both do not want to do. In the end, who knew a small town, the holidays, and some amazing baked goods could pull two unlikely people together.


This is definitely a cute little romcom I would and will recommend to anyone as the holiday seasons are approaching!
