About this listen
Eros Williams, the child of Wesley and Oliver Williams, has a lot to live up to - The Love Project, for one. With a name like Eros, it’s hard not to wonder if you’ll ever find your perfect match. But with an incredible boyfriend and a happy life, she’s pretty sure things will all work out just fine - until they don’t. When her parents decide it’s time for a family-filled holiday, her perfect life starts to unravel, primarily because her archnemesis, Logan Harrison, is part of that family.
The Godbrother she never wanted and couldn’t stand, has made it his mission to annoy Eros every chance he gets. Their arguments often stress the family, so Eros decides to try her own project during the holiday - figure out how not to hate the boy everyone else loves.
Things do not start on a high note, and they go from bad to worse when Eros discovers her Godbrother’s new girlfriend is Meredith, the girl who once shoved her in a locker and bullied her daily.
When Eros receives some bad news about her boyfriend, she starts to wonder if her perfect life was really so great after all. Does love really exist, and can it be as pure and simple as the love her parents share? Or was her mother right in the beginning - love is an illusion? Throw in Logan’s mysterious best friend, Max - including his freckles, dimples, and adorable grin - and Eros is in for a bumpy ride.

All Hope Cooper needed this year was to have the kind of Christmas her family always cherished. But with her parents gone and her only brother having to work, it doesn't look like it's going to work out for her. There's nothing she can do about her parents, but she most certainly can voice her annoyance at her brother's boss for making him work out of town all through the holidays. Beckett James hates the holidays and everything that goes with them. They were important at one time, but now the only thing that matters is his company and its continued growth....

Life was perfect…until it wasn’t, and when we were forced to go our separate ways, I held on to our memories, let go of my first crush, and wished for the day I’d find him again.

"Does that mean you don't have a boyfriend?" I narrowed my eyes at him but he still figured out the truth. He gazed at me for a moment then asked, "Have you ever had a boyfriend?" I blushed again. Even deeper than before. My lack of response answered the question for me. I think this was the reaction Seth was hoping for since he leaned in really close. I instinctively tried to back away from him but seeing as how I was lying in bed, and he was blocking my escape, the only thing I could do was sink down into my pillow.

Shay Gable hated my guts, and I hated hers, too. We went out of our way to avoid one another at all times. When she came in my direction, I went the other. When we locked eyes, she’d turn and walk away. All of that changed the day I was presented with a challenge. It started out as a stupid bet: make Shay fall in love with me before I fell in love with her first. That was an easy bet for me to win. I didn’t love. I hardly liked. Yet slowly the game started to shift. Shay made me crave things I never knew I wanted.

Story
The beginning of my sophomore year in college was off to a rough start. On the first day of orientation, I had an altercation with an infuriating British dude in a campus bathroom. (The ladies’ room was out of order. So, I used the men’s room. Don’t judge.) I got home later that night and realized that the foreign student we were expecting to rent a room in my parents’ house was allergic to our cat. So, the spare room went to someone else: Caleb - the British guy from the men’s room. And so it began...my love-hate story with Caleb Yates. Or was it hate-love in that order?

It follows the kids of the characters from the first book, and the story itself, as well as the characters are interesting on their own.
What bothered me is that I felt like I missed so much of the characters' lives and background story, that I felt cheated. I want to read all that had happened since the first book ended until the second book started.
The narrator was great, and did an awesome job.

Language- None
Violence- PG - Fist fight but nothing terrible
Sexual Content- nothing to warn of, just snuggles and kissing variety
I loved that this is a continuation of the first book with the characters from bk 1's children being highlighted over Christmas Break. The kids are high school to college age and getting to see how the friends made them all kind of a family was really cool. I loved the crazy large family Christmas feel with all the drama, sibling tension and romance drama. It really was a multi story rom-com affair, which made it really fun with all the side romances and getting to spend more time with the original couples from the first book. A great Holiday or anytime read.
Narrator- 3⭐ didn't have the best differentiations, and I found her a bit slow but fixed at 1.25x speed.

This was a cute little holiday romance, but I wouldn't say it is a #2 to #1 other than the fact the same characters were in attendance.
Why? This story differs in that it read more like a YA than a New Adult romance. Both Clean (thank you Padgett!) but this story is from the POV of a teenager. And #1 they were college students.
The characters in this book were cute but still teens and all of the angst that goes along with it. All that being said, this was a cute little holiday romance sprinkled with some past stories of book 1.
Recommended for fans of YA romance and clean romance.
I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
Different than 1 but enjoyable little romance
