LOVE IT! May reread in December to enjoy it in the right festive month! Holiday Romance was easy to read with a fun plot and charming characters.

 

Friends-to-lovers between photographer x lawyer.

Every Christmas, two friends with very different lives fly home together to Ireland to be with each other family. It has become a tradition, they always spend time on the plane to update each other's life stories.


On the supposedly 10th flight in the 10th year, a snowstorm ruined all their Christmas plans. Even though Molly doesn't care about Christmas, she looked for various ways to bring them home because Andrew loves Christmas with his family.


The intense journey was added with some intimate moments that made them question themselves. What do they really feel about each other?

 

I love it! I love it! This is my first Catherine Walsh book and I plan to read the rest. I'm so lucky I can read this early. This festive book had me playing Christmas carols the whole time I read it, in August!


It is so cute. Not only because the friends-to-lovers trope is my thing, but Andrew is just so... charming. He knew how to keep up with Molly's intense emotions. They really complement each other.


Their return trip to Ireland also made me jealous. Despite all the rush, their moments make me want to travel too! I love their spontaneity when deciding what to do on the trip. Ugh. When will this pandemic situation end?


Overall the plot kinda refreshing to me. We can understand their relationship build up by stories of each flight. It's fun.


'When this man became my weakness, I do not know. But tonight, it’s like he’s got me wrapped around his little finger.'
