It’s the flight before Christmas and Molly just got an unexpected gift: a free first-class upgrade on her plane trip home for the holidays. Bring on the complimentary cocktails! But after one too many, she spills all her secrets to the hot guy seated next to her—only to wake up mortified when her buzz has worn off. At least she never has to see Liam again ... or so she thinks. When Molly arrives at Christmas House, the festive rental home that she and her family are sharing with her sister’s fiancé and his wealthy family, she discovers that Liam is one of the new in-laws. Oops.

Totally predictable
Reviewed: 12-12-24
Started off fun with the meet cute but quickly devolved into overly complicated "problems" that were not really problems at all. All of the so-called twists were completely predictable and all of the secrets/problems could have been easily resolved with conversations.

Hockey coach Ashley Jaswal doesn't take nonsense from anyone … except her overbearing and superstitious family. They believe she's a good luck charm for her brother Jas, the newest Vancouver Canucks draft pick, forcing Ash to attend all his games as he rises up the NHL ranks, sacrificing her personal life (not that she has one—who decided hockey season needed to be 10 months long anyway?). Ash also clashes with Jas’s teammate, Canucks captain Devin Snyder.

STORY: Overall, I liked the plot; pretty typical for a romance. It's nice to have POC representation and important conversations about racism in a story about hockey.
NARRATION: largely enjoyed the narration and her ability to use different voices with one exception-the voice of her brother sounded like she had her teeth clenched for everything that he said. Maybe she had trouble creating a second distinct male voice but it was very irritating because it made it sound like the brother was pissed all the time and it distorted some of what he said.

Oscar is a grouch. That’s a well-established fact among his tight-knit friend group, and they love him anyway. Jack is an ass. Jack, who’s always ready with a sly insult, who can’t have a conversation without arguing, and who Oscar may or may not have hooked up with on a strict no-commitment, one-time-only basis. Even if it was extremely hot. Together, they’re a bickering, combative mess. When Oscar is fired (answering phones is not for the anxiety-ridden), he somehow ends up working for Jack.

I think if I had been reading the book I would have become frustrated by the way Oscar's thoughts jump around. The narrator, however, is great; he really seems to get Oscar and conveys his frustrations, anxiety, doubts and feelings so well. The book is laugh-out-loud funny and the sex is hot. The relationship between Oscar and Jack is a little unusual and the road to the end is full of real and imagined obstacles but kind of beautiful. Kris' depiction of Oscar's anxiety is on point and both hilarious and sensitive to his genuine struggles. I loved the hate project.

Drew Marshall may have let me move into his spare bedroom while my house is being renovated, but don’t think for one second his kindness comes without strings - big, ugly fake-relationship strings. That’s okay, though, Dr. Andrew. I’ll agree to your terms, move into your house, and act like your girlfriend when the big day comes, but I also plan to make your life miserable - make you pay for what you did to me. I may not be good at forgiving or forgetting, but I’m excellent at getting even.

Story is typical, male narration is horrible
Reviewed: 10-08-22
The story is a typical enemies to lovers romcom. It's fun to listen to some of the antics but really difficult to relate to Jesse's reasons for hating Drew; it seems like an extreme response. What bothers me about the audio book, however, is Jason Keller's performance. He does not seem to understand Drew's demeanor and character with some over the top acting. The female narrator does a nice job.

Poor Meg Langslow. She's blessed in so many ways. Michael, her boyfriend, is a handsome, delightful heartthrob who adores her. She's a successful blacksmith, known for her artistic wrought-iron creations. But somehow Meg's road to contentment is more rutted and filled with potholes than seems fair.

Distracted by performance
Reviewed: 02-13-22
I was very distracted by the performance of Bernadette Dunne. I have listened to many of the audio books in the Meg Langslow series and this sounds nothing like the other recordings. Other than an attempt to create a voice for Rob, she does not use the distinctive voices that she has created for the regular characters in the other audio books. It makes me wonder if this really is Bernadette Dunne. I have come to enjoy many of the voices BD has created for the regulars, her comic timing, clear expressions of sarcasm and skepticism, and more. This performance is so different that it was just a distraction.
