review 1: I really wish I could give this book 4.5 stars because it was so very good.There was a bit of an adjustment for me as I'm American and this is a very English story. Still I found it fascinating and enchanting and one of the best Christmas time romances I've come across in a long time.Holly doesn't celebrate Christmas due in part to her upbringing and tragedy but she's rather forced into it when her housesitting job turns into a gathering for the family of the man who's house she is watching.Holly is a smart and kind person who you feel the desire to hope for her happy ending.Jude is a bit rough around the edges but it becomes clear quite soon that he like provoking Holly just to see what happens.My favorite thing about this story is that half of it is just Holly getting to... more know Jude's family and pets before he even appears. Then it is all cooking, celebrating and artistic endeavors than lead to two hearts finding what they've lost.And to top that off, there is a bit of a mystery that links Holly's grandmother to Jude's family!It is a brilliant story and one I highly recommend.
review 2: I expected a cosy and romantic read as a countdown to Christmas but the book left me pretty much disappointed. The story was mostly boring and predictable and could hardly entertain me. There were tons of food descriptions, far away from being interesting or even mouth-watering. For the romance I had to wait forever and I still I couldn't feel any sparks in the air. Most characters, especially the main protagonists, failed to touch me, I just couldn't connect with any of them.The writing style itself was fine and good to read. less
