Summer Hastings hates Christmas. She loves sunshine, the beach and running her travel agency, sending people off to their dream destinations – even if she doesn’t get to see the world for herself. For Summer, Christmas is nothing but a reminder of all the things that have gone horribly wrong in her life, so when handsome Noel Pritchett moves his pop-up Christmas shop in the store next to hers, Summer is livid.
Noel loves Christmas…and he also has a sneaking suspicion that he might be falling in love with Summer, if only he could break through the armour she has surrounded herself with. Just why does Summer hate Christmas so much? And can Noel be the one to prove to her that life can be sweet all year round?
I listenend to the audiobook, and was surprised, that it wasn’t a happy-go-lucky holiday romance, there were quite some serious topics in the mix. But the author just scratched the surface, which didn’t leave me satisfied. The heroine is unpleasant, and that I didn’t like the reading voice (too monotonous) also didn’t help.
A good idea that didn’t meet it’s potential.
