what a cutie christmas read!!! it was the perfect blend between hallmark fluff and an actual serious relationship that I would see in real life 🥹
I’m all for relationships of second chances (and third and fourth) when it makes sense with the storyline, more along the lines of “the one who got away” which is 100% the vibe of this and made it so adorable!!!
I loved andrew and molly and their friendship turned relationship a lot because of their realness behind it, their reluctance to get together in order to save their friendship, and their pen-pal like communication!! and of course, their irish culture!!! I wanted more of it, from one irish queen to another ☘️
I still found a certain number of scenes to be unnecessary and drawn out, and the whole book itself definitely could have been shorter. however, it was a perfect holiday romance to get me in the spirit!
