Quotes
“Because that’s what love was – more than a word, more than a mountain of the best and noblest intentions in the world. It was saying I’ll be here with you when it feels like nothing else is certain.”
“I learned that love was sticking around and believing in someone even when it felt impossible.”
“Love – even love decreed by fate – always demanded sacrifice and risk.”
My Review
I thought this was a great romance book. It had a good amount of spice so if that’s not something you like I’d choose something else. With this being a Christmas romance book I didn’t find it was too overloaded with Christmas content and focused more on the romance story. I would recommend this book to romance readers who enjoy some spice in their books and are looking for a fun and swoon worthy Christmas read.
