Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
[This would have been 3.5, but the second half just really pushed it up a notch]
Tropes:
Grump + sunshine
One bed (sort of, anyway)
Friends to lovers
Two Irish strangers end up travel buddies for ~10~ Christmases flying from Chicago back home, and share the bumps and bruises a decade of life brings with it. workaholic Molly and go-with-the-flow Andrew. Their banter was amazing, their chemistry palpable through the pages, and their families are dynamic and just plain FUN. This was a good mix of lighthearted, holiday fun but also just a dash of seriousness. I wish we had gotten more time with the families, and I wish we had explored some of the struggles both Molly and Andrew were facing. But Andrew was a perfect dream and I'm obsessed with him.
