Merry Kismet by Anneka R. Walker is such a sweet Christmas read. I devoured this story in less than a day and had SO much fun doing so. I’m a real sucker for a good second-chance romance, and Walker does not disappoint. My favorite aspect to this second-chance romance is that there is no hate. Brie, the hurt party, has ZERO anger or animosity towards Rockwell. She was definitely hurt by Rockwell, but she just loves him. Always will. Because of this, Brie is willing to give Rockwell the benefit of the doubt and hears him out. It was refreshing to read a second-chance story that included kindness, patience, communication, and genuine second chances. It was nice to read a story with no fighting, just fixing. I really like Brie and Rockwell. It’s so obvious from their first interaction that they’re meant to be together. They’re so cute! I had a lot of fun watching Brie and Rockwell maneuver through awkwardness, renewed friendship, reignited chemistry, and eventually love. Merry Kismet is the delightfully happy story I didn’t even know I needed. I’m walking away from this story one happy, smiley reader!

Merry Kismet is a wonderful Contemporary Romance I highly recommend. If you’re looking for a highly engaging, totally endearing, super sweet Christmas romance that will leave your reader heart happy, then this is definitely the book for you!
