Kiss Me at Christmas was the quintessential Christmas read. I loved Harriet and James and how they transitioned from a place of bickering to a place of joy and romance. The backdrop of the theatre production was so cozy and I was so ready to be in the audience watching these characters thrive on stage.
This was an adorable found family story. The cast of characters is compelling far behind the two romantic leads, and I felt as well that Harriet’s journey of self love was also pivotal to the story. It was wonderful to see her independent self learn to lean on and share with others.
I really enjoyed this book! Jenny Bayliss created a beautiful Christmas story that was warm, comforting, and perfectly joyful. The only thing missing from my reading experience was a glass of Harriet’s favorite mulled wine!
I received a free advance copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review. All opinions expressed are my own.

When your MMC is nicknamed Trouble, there’s no way the story can be anything besides full of banter, sass, and spice. Tristan…
