Is It New Year’s Yet? by Zakiya N. Jamal
is a second chance too but the spicy scene kinda felt out of nowhere too in this one. Even though it took them a year I’m glad they talked it out in the end, but still wasn’t a fan of this one either.
My rating: 🎄🎄.5

Hope This Helps by Sarah Hogle
This one wasn’t for me at all, I didn’t like the FMCs behavior towards the teacher (MMC)..
My rating: 🎄

Holiday Blackout by Susan Lee
This one seemed shorter than the others and like with some other stories there wasn’t much chemistry between the two characters.

Skipping Christmas by Rebekah Weatherspoon
Almost dnf this one ngl, I didn’t like the MCs much but the FMC was too much with her sexual thoughts about him…

I really loved it when they talked about their shared memories. You could immediately sense how familiar they were with each other, as if no time had passed.

All Roads Lead Home by Joss Richard
Was such a good read! Another second chance romance but this time with two former best friends who see each other after a decade and it feels as if no time has passed and like coming home. The right novella for a cosy winter day under a warm blanket with some tea!

A Solstice Kiss by Olivia Dade - As someone who loves art and going to museums, I really liked the setting of this story! Another thing that played into it was the Swedish Christmas market that gave cozy vibes!!

My rating: 🎄🎄🎄.75
