Trip  (shardsofromance) Heard great things about this book, sounds perfect way to start the year πŸ’•

Get out the last of festive feels too, before back to work next week πŸ˜‚

:D I know. I have to read it while my Christmas tree is still inside :D

So I finished chapter 3. Is it me, or is the writing a bit... Strange? I really can't connect to Arlo or Jack. I'm hoping it will get better with Jack's PoV.

Trip  (shardsofromance) I just finished ch 2 and yeah i have to agree, somethings a little off on the writing i can't really figuee out.

Although im really enjoying Arlo so far and connect too instantly, i am definitely that person in airport who always gets stopped or caught up in some way πŸ˜‚ He seems a clumsy, self deprecating sort and i kind of live for that.

Jack seems a little too basic/perfect so far, but yeah im hoping once see his pov that will change.

Trip  (shardsofromance) Finished Ch 7 😊

Im really enjoying it, theres a lot of humor and sweet moments. The scenes in the museum and the club were a lot of fun, im really enjoying the side cast too of Tom and Bee especially.

Arlo and Jack have amazing chemistry, the steam is great too πŸ’•


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
Finished chapter 7, as well :)

I liked the scenes at the museum, too. They are so sweet. It was about time they realized it :D

finished chapter 9. I really don't get why someone as sweet as Jack would date someone as vile as that jerk for so long. Why did he have to show up? I mean, seriously.


Trip  (shardsofromance) I finished ch 12...

Agree completely! The only reason i can think is his parents, because apparently they love him. Jack is such a sweetheart, his love of art and his needing things certain way. I just adore him and Arlos obvious adoration, they compliment each other so well.

With Arlos joking nature and Jacks more serious, i think they really balance together. So sweet and steamy in equel measure!

I love the humor in this story a lot too πŸ’•


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
Yep, they are perfect together. Did you get to the part where the brother finds out? SO cute :D

Trip  (shardsofromance) Yeah i did! That was hilarious and yet so sweet πŸ˜‚

I love that Jack and Arlo both went to speak with him seperately just gushing about what they like about the other πŸ’•

This book is like the perfect romcom film, i live for it!

Finished Ch 15, so going to read the last one and epilogue now xx


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
Right? I even enjoyed the crazy OTT proposal and the weird parents!


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
Finished! This was such a cute holiday story. I really like those two together, they are such a perfectly matched couple.


Trip  (shardsofromance) I just finished too! This book just fulfilled all my desires of a RomCom movie, the whole story came to life. I love Jack & Arlo so much πŸ’•

This was such a cosy, feel good read with plenty of hilarious moments and all of the romance. Oh and Toms proposal in the canal was perfect! πŸ˜‚

Oh and the ending is so beautiful. Amazing read, thanks for another great pick!


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
YES! The proposal was the best :D

We are off to a good start for this year :D What do you plan on reading next?
