Now you know I’ve been talking about how I don’t read holiday books till after Halloween. But this one came up by an author that I really have liked her books in the past, so I had to jump on the blog tour! And you know what? I am so glad I did give in and read a holiday book early for me. Because I loved this one!

It’s like every time that Chuck and Kate turned around something else messed up their plan to confess their break up to their parents. Literally. Chuck bending down to pick up the ring he had just been showing Kate right as their family stopped by their room, and suddenly he has to go through with the proposal that it looks like. And then they decide to wait to tell their family till after Christmas but it slips out that he proposed as he tries to tell his buddies something and suddenly the whole town knows and is congratulating them.

They come up with a way they think they can save face about their break-up and it gets accidentally mis-overheard by Kate’s mom and all of a sudden the stakes to get married as soon as possible are even higher!

Every single time and every single thing that happened made me laugh and made me feel so sorry for the two.

Hearing the things Kate had done that made her decide to leave Chuck in the first place, like the towel drop in front of your boyfriend playing video games? I remember watching those TikTok or whatever videos. The ending though, the bus full of girl scouts and Chuck weaving the story of their love from the very first kiss up until the not the right time wedding, I loved it. It was so perfect. I was left smiling so much at the cuteness and perfection of the end of the book.

I might now also be ready to read some more holiday books. Before Halloween. I know, crazy, right?
