What Risingshadow readers think about this book

10/10

This was my first book by Lauren Esker and I thought it was a fun and lighthearted holiday romance. I enjoyed getting to know Joy and Bar in this story and seeing how they overcome the problems they encounter. I also liked Joy's sister Leah and am looking forward to seeing her story in The Claiming of the Shrew.

I received a free advanced reader copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
