Christmas Baggage by Deborah M. Hathaway, Book Review

By Books Are Sanity!!! -



Book Summary:

If there is one thing she has learned in England, it's that not all Englishmen are created equal.
Because this guy was turning out to be a real pill.

Tired of spending the holidays throwing up on cruises with her parents and, you know, being dumped by ex-boyfriends, Claire Frost is determined to change her luck this Christmas. Taking time off from her flower shop, she follows her friend to London, ready to enjoy all-things England. And boy, does she. The frost-covered flowers. The frozen green hills. The bright red telephone boxes. The festive Christmas markets.

Also the men. Definitely the men.

Except, of course, her friend's cousin. Liam Everhart is super attractive, super swoony, and super English. Too bad he's also a super jerk. A super jerk whom she now has to spend every minute with. What a blessed, blessed relief that his Darcy/Poldark looks are overshadowed by his Darth Vader/Malfoy personality. She had enough Christmas baggage to deal with, so why would she ever add a swoony Englishman to the mix?

This is a clean, sweet, wholesome romance set in present-day London, England that features the enemies-to-lovers and forced proximity tropes, with a guaranteed happily-ever-after.


My Review:

This RomCom had me from the start! Claire is so fun and upbeat and then enters Liam. Mr. Serious, straight faced, and rude! Are all English guys like that?  Claire kept me laughing out loud from her slight bouts of clumsiness! The setting was on point! It was awesome that she traveled to London and bonus, it was during Christmas! The author does a fantastic job describing London and now I need to go! It was super amazing to get to “see” the sights along with Claire. You will love the crazy and fun friendship between Claire and Melody, and the thoughtfulness of Claire and Tasha. This is one RomCom you do not want to pass over! I read it in a day! It will have you laughing out loud one moment and then almost in tears at others. Wonderful writing and a story that you won’t be able to stop reading, Christmas Baggage is a total win! I received a copy of this book for free; all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Happy Reading!!!

You can pick up your own copy via Amazon.
