festive books aren't really my scene. i think this is the first one i've ever read and that's because everyone recommended it on instagram and tiktok.
its a cute and fluffy book. i forgot how to give reviews to these kinds of books lmao. i loved that this was reverse grumpy sunshine. i don't think we get nearly enough books with this trope.
if y'all love cute romances then this is for you 100%....more
this book had so much potential, i was actually loving it for the first 4-6 chapters and then it just made me bored.
some things i liked: - i love meyerthis book had so much potential, i was actually loving it for the first 4-6 chapters and then it just made me bored.
some things i liked: - i love meyer's character, he was cute. the way that he tried to get out of his comfort zone for her >> - i loved the friends to lovers here - i loved that they both liked each other - the concept and plot was interesting
things i disliked: - the fact that whenever it switched povs, they felt like one person, for the life of me i couldn't figure out who was talking and its weird this happens since its in first person. like i get this happening in third but FIRST? nah weird - i HATED the throwback chapters, like we didn't really need them, they just bored me to death bc they were actually way cuter in the "now" chapters. - even tho i liked the concept of the book, it was so fucking messy.. like i felt like the author wanted to fit in as many details that the book didn't flow correctly, it was just unorganised to me. - i tbh didn't even really like farley's character, i felt bad for meyer, felt like she wasn't putting as much emotions towards him like he did..
honestly, i'm a hypocrite bc im sure ive read similar books with all these dislike books but ignored them bc i loved the characters. this one for me personally, just didn't do it bc of the writing of the book. i felt disconnected and i just wanted the book to end. i can see why people would love this, bc tbh i wouldve loved it before my big slump but now, i'm just not phased by these kinds of books.
look at me finally writing a semi-proper review opppp...more
2.75 ⭐ lemme just start with its a really good book despite my rating, i know probs everyone loves this book but ugh i just didn't connect, maybe this 2.75 ⭐ lemme just start with its a really good book despite my rating, i know probs everyone loves this book but ugh i just didn't connect, maybe this shouldn't have been the first BCC book to read but whats done is done :)
the characters, the story and the QUOTES!!! to die for but you know? when you read all that and just sit there with a blank face not feeling anything even though everything is so nice? ya thats what i felt.
idk if its the writing bc i felt like i was just reading words on a screen or im just not in the mood today for this kind of book, even tho i finished it surprisingly. im more disappointed bc i wanted to like it but i just didnt. ...more

i found them very boring. nothing really wrong with either of them but jesus they acted like children. it was way too insta for me. i don't even know these people and they were already in love, how am i gonna feel shit for them??????
now cole sounds hot and i'm gonna enjoy book 2 bc hmmm i need my officer right now.

i tbh hate single mom romances bc of all the fucking DRAMA. why do authors write single dad romances in a way where its all sunshine and giggles with CUTE AF kids????? i love children but the girl in this one was pissing MEEEEEEEEE off. all the crying for what ugh.
why can’t we just get a cute and fluffy single mom romance? HUH HUH HUH tired of this. what did single moms ever do to these authors ugh.
“Are you trying to make me fall for you, Oliver Pemberton?" He grinned. "We don't fall. We jump.”
i really wanted to be nice and give 1.75⭐️
“Are you trying to make me fall for you, Oliver Pemberton?" He grinned. "We don't fall. We jump.”
i really wanted to be nice and give this 2 stars but dear god i'm not in a good mood and this ruined it tenfold. i just picked any quote bc i hated every single word in this book.
wtf? i thought this was a second chance in which at least they’d have a small romance in the “then” scenes but they were fucking apart for that shit too?
like you cannot tell me that they didn’t talk for 3 fucking years in the “then” scenes bc the heroine didn’t fucking realize that he was jealous of her dating another dude… what is this book. where is the romance????
this book gave me a fucking headache, i actually had to fucking drink painkillers for this.
the other at least could’ve put some fucking effort into researching russian names that were given a fucking 100 years ago bc JACOB FELDMANN? thats not russian ESPEciALLY 100 years ago. like bro? a quick google search and you couldve found any russian name.
that ending was stupid. his reasoning and “big secret” was fucking dumb and didn’t fucking make sense.
the romance was no where to be found. i actually spent more time looking at my wall than reading this.
