A life of books . . .
I came across this while perusing NetGalley looking for new MM Romance authors to expand my repertoire and diversity reading.*
Not going to lie though, I mostly chose this one because of the illustrated cover’s whimsical balloon and because I thought the author was a man! I’ve only read a few MM Romances by men, but when I finished the novel I found out Jayce was a woman, which didn’t affect my opinions but was like DAMN.

I’m legitimately holding my breath for the producers at Hallmark, Netflix, Hulu, etc. to discover the depth and breadth of MM Holiday Romance novels that are already out there ready to be adapted into made for TV movies. I mean GET ON IT.
This is one of those perfectly canned books that could be turned into a movie really quickly. It would require two big sets at most and not a large cast and it’s fully contained within a week. it’s seriously written explicitly to be adapted!

What a delightful read! I grabbed this from Kindle Unlimited when an ARC request came in for book four of the series (A Christmas Miracle) landed in my inbox.
Having never read Moone before, even though I was intrigued by the blurb of the ARC, I wanted to see what how her writing was so I went and grabbed this one and it was the perfect quick read. I hope the quality stays throughout the series and that they are connected, even if they’re just standalones.

My little closeted teenage heart would’ve died to read something like this in the late-90s/early-00s. So, when I saw it on NetGalley I requested it IMMEDIATELY, the publisher approved, and I have been sitting on it for months.*
I know I’ve said it before and I’ll keep on saying it—I am SO jealous of all the teens today getting to see themselves in books like this. I mean hell I enjoy them and I am WELL outside the target demographic for these.
