ONE WORD SUMMARY:

Last one of the year! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Here we have a meet-no-so-cute that will lead to some Xmas spice. Molly and Liam meet on a plane trip home for the holidays. Molly, enjoying her first first class, drinks a little too much and spills all her secrets to the hunk next to her. When she wakes up she prays she'll never meet him again...unlucky for her he is the brother to her future brother-in-law. 

This was entertaining. I loved watching these two try and deny the chemistry. I loved his secret and her secrets. They were silly and not THAT scandalous. Just scandalous enough to be amusing.

I did NOT like how cavalier everyone,but Molly, was with how controlling Liam's brother was acting towards Molly's sister. I guessed what that was all about but it was concerning that no one but Molly was calling him out on it. Ugh. I'm sure you can guess why he was so protective without me having to give ANY hints. So it makes sense but damn...just tell everyone and chill. 

The narrators were fantastic. I especially adore Teddy Hamilton. He is a gem in the narrating world.

The ending was very sweet. The reveals were kind of funny....especially Liam's parent's "big" secret. LOL

All-in-all, I did enjoy this and it was a nice way to end the year. I only had one big-ish issue but it didn't ruin the story. Silly......

But yes. A nice holiday romance with fun narrators. I'll give this 3 stars.
