This was cute enough ... not one I'd recommend to family/friends per content.  I'm NOT a big "Christmas Movie" gal, but I have purposely attempted to get into the spirit with some of the stereotypical movies over the years. This year I thought I'd try some Christmas books. This was included in AudiblePlus, so free with my membership. AudibleONLY ... I do miss having a Kindle copy to skim over. 

This was a pretty stereotypical "christmas movie" story ... there are the two MCs, no doubt they'll end up together by the end, probably some miscommunications along the way. SPOILER

our two MCs have met the month before - a one night stand they both thought might be more, but ... so uber awkward when they end up stuck in a car together for a long drive (didn't I watch a Christmas movie with that premise?) End up with car troubles, stuck in a tiny town (Tinsel ... SO Christmas Movie) as they make friends with the people there, get involved in some of the activities while waiting for the repair. Work things out, then more miscommunication and separation ... I totally called it when the female MC was going to pick up the 'artwork' that it would happen to be from the male's MC's mother. So ... they meet again, work things out.

Unlike the Hallmark movies ... there were some steamy sex scenes in this. Once upon a time, I might have sought out the sexy stuff, now ... it just always feels like authors are trying to come up with new ways to describe it, and it's gotten old and eye-rolling. I'm not sure I would have been interested in the book had I known, these cute cartoon covers are a little misleading (the Harlequin bodice rippers really let you know what you're getting into).  It was fine, I just was more in the mood for closed door, cute/sweet romance.

With this title, I might have been expecting a little purposeful "losing" ... like the movie "How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days" where that actually WAS the plot line. Here, it was just a throwaway title. 

I can't recall if there was proFanity (often I'll double check on my Kindle copy -- which I didn't have here. I had noted it Storygraph though, so , yes). 3rd person, past tense ... two narrators, male and female. The male narrator ... his voice didn't really match for me, too deep and serious.
