This is the first I have read from Jen and I am disappointed in myself for not reading from her before now 😭! With that said I have to say how much I loved this book! Once I started it I couldn't stop reading and I had to finish it!
I fell in love with Bonnie and Noel from the very beginning. I mean who couldnt love the four legged fluffy sweet baby who was the best baby girl that ever was? Okay I and to get that out, it was fighting to get out 😜! Bonnie was such a sweet character and I loved her from the very first scene. She had the perfect humor and I couldn't help but laugh along with her when she would have those moments. I also felt for her when she would have those vulnerable moments and shrink into herself. I couldn't help but feel for her and want to help. I was so glad that there was representation for anxiety. So many people don't understand, but with this I hope more people are able to get an insight as to what it's like.
I was especially glad to see that Jen included a service animal (Noel) in this storyline. So many people don't understand how hard it is to obtain or pay for a service animal but this sheds more light on the process.
Elliot, Elliot, Elliot. Boy did he have a way of getting under someone's skin before he even met them. All done with some notes left on Bonnie's door. Luckily with the help of his Gran he was able to undo some of his trouble. Elliot really was such a great guy he was just going about it the wrong way. He was just lucky to have a Gran who helped him find the right way to right his wrongs with the 12 Days of Mistletoe. Who knew 12 kisses over 12 Days were going to bring him someone who could possibly be the love of his life?
I truly loved this book so much. I was so sad at the end because I didn't want it to end. I couldn't let the book ending go. I had to just let it all simmer in my heart for a little bit before I could actually move on.
Thank you so much to Jen Atkinson for the complimentary copy in exchange for my honest and voluntary opinion.
