I love Emily Stone. Always have, Always will. I look forward to her books every Christmas! I didn't enjoy this one as much as her others but it was still a great read, feel good travel vibes and a lovely slow burn romance.

What a story. Our parents have a lot to answer for. Lexi could not settle in life. Then her father surprises her and the story goes from there. Not spoiling it. Love the love element and the travel and Rachel her sister. Read it. Brilliant

This was my first time reading a book from this author but oh it was such an amazing book, so much so that I picked it up to read on Thursday night and I couldn’t put it down, I literally had finished reading it in the early hours of Friday morning. This is such a beautiful heartbreaking and heartwarming book like I cried several times near the end at good and sad parts, yes I’m one of those girls and it’s okay more people should show their emotions.

I was happy and sad for the daughters in this book as each of them both had different experiences with their dad this was to do with their dad but also due to their mums as well although both the daughters are different too but each in a good way and they both learn that although they have both had different experiences that they were both loved very much by their dad who although he was different with both of them he still loved them both so much and although this story starts with their dad’s funeral their dad in some way helps both his daughters to be there for one another and for them both to know that their dad loved them oh so very much. As someone who growing up was such a daddy’s girl and whose dad is no longer here but in my heart, this book made me realise that what I had with my dad was very special and like both the daughters in this book that your dad might be gone from this world but that the love he showed when he was alive still lives on.

I would highly recommend reading this book with tissues if like me you have a heart that cries good or bad but it’s worth reading despite the tears as it warmed my heart too.

I would like to thank Headline and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book early it was an absolute pleasure and thank you very much to both of you,

I absolutely adore Emily Stone and her beautiful Christmas novels. I apologize I’m a bit behind on reviews due to an unexpected health issue but will be sharing a full review as soon as possible. I am honored. Thank you!
