Mmm, reading this was like enjoying one of those Christmas hot chocolate drinks that have become so popular in recent years: excessively sweet, indulgent, delicious and perfect for this time of year.

I really enjoyed how slow Sarah Morgan was willing to be when it came to Sky and Alec get to know each other. It was also tricky off the bat, because Alec was such a prick to Sky in previous books. Fortunately, his past behaviour is dealt with well, and he more than makes up for himself. The slow burn revelations were well done, and I was a bit sad that the book wasn't neatly split into time with Alec's family versus Sky's family.

I was hoping the ending would head in one direction (smack dooooown!) but I wasn't too disappointed with what I ultimately got, and damn if I didn't love the final chapter. I wanted to keep going with these characters, always a sign of an enjoyable read, and it was perfect snuggly Christmas reading. Hearts for Sarah Morgan.
