Secret Santa by Kati Wilde
4.0

This was pretty damn cute! It definitely has a lot of insta-love elements, but it's done in a sweet way and I still enjoyed it despite usually not being a big fan of that trope — I guess in short romance formats like this, it just works better. I loved the holiday elements with the Secret Santa games and all, and despite a brief moment of drama/miscommunication, it's a pretty laid-back little story that focuses mainly on the steam.
