Book Review:

This is a great quick and easy holiday read! I loved the little cafe that Taylor owned, the small town of Creekville, and the best friends to more trope! This was like a Hallmark movie but so much better! The meddling mamas just made me smile and it was such a great part of the story. I really liked that the Taft and Bixby families had these amazing game nights, they felt so real I felt like I was there with them! The bond between the sisters was so sweet and I adored how much Taylor wanted to make everything right for her nephew for Christmas. This is a fun holiday read that will have you reaching for your own cup of cocoa!

Happy Reading!
