This was a great sweet, smexy, fun Christmas romance! Ruth was quite unique from other heroines I’m accustomed to from this author. I loved that she was so forward and known to speak her mind. And yet, the very thing I loved about her, was the thing that tended to keep her isolated. Her loneliness hurt my heart and I wanted her to find her own circle of friends that would always be there for her. We are not given Carter’s point of view and I did struggle a tad with exactly what he was feeling, experiencing or thinking. Usually, I never struggle with that issue when reading a Noelle Adams book, but Carter tended to keep things close to his chest. However, that never affected my enjoyment of the story. I loved Carter and Ruth together as a couple. The fact that they are a couple, even if a fake couple, throughout the book was like the icing on a delicious slice of cake. Watching them fake date and knowing they were both in the process of falling into the real deal fed my heart all it desires. They were just so dang cute together. While most of this is what I’m accustomed to with a book by Ms. Adams, this one was written in such a way that it felt unique and fresh. Add in so many fun moments, wonderful secondary characters, and some serious sizzle and I fell completely in love with everything about this book!
