Back to Dream Harbor for the holidays! I love this small town series. They are all just feel good stories and are so cute to get into with the little quirks of each storyline. I liked the Christmas tree farm angle and Kira being a little grinch-y was a nice vibe especially in comparison to Bennett. He was such a sweetheart which gave for a great grumpy x sunshine in this small town! I listened to the audio for this one which was a bit dry for me but it didn’t ruin the story whatsoever.

The story follows Kira North, who hates Christmas but buys a tree farm, and Bennett Ellis, who gets snowed in with her, leading to forced proximity and a romance. Trashy story. Way too much sex.
