“Do you enjoy reading holiday romance books?”
I truly wanted to enjoy this book. It has so much potential with the enemies-to-lovers trope in the mix of a holiday romance story. But yet, it was a bit too slow for my taste.
Angi is having problems with herself and her family. She feels guilty about pursuing her dreams while, unexpectedly, her mother falls ill. But yet, her family, especially her mother, is holding her back from her dreams. And it does not help that she has to help her small-town holiday parade with her childhood enemy, Gabriel. He makes it well-known that he does not have any interest in her whatsoever. He does not have the time to deal with her while he is taking care of his grandmother and the flower shop. And it does not help that he has to deal with her while handling the town holiday parade.
This book had potential. But I was really irritated with Angi as a female character. I understand that there are family obligations or a sense of family loyalty, but something has to give if you want to be happy in life. And don't take offense that people who don't like you. It happens. And it happens more when you were a bully to them when you were children.
