Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lexie inherits half of her estranged father’s holiday travel company and must run it alongside Theo, his attractive yet bad-tempered executive. As they work together over the year, sparks fly between them during a trip to Spain, but navigating both business and their growing attraction proves challenging.

I always look forward to reading Emily Stone’s winter novels in the fall. While I thought A Winter Wish was a good story, it wasn’t my favorite of hers. The book is told entirely from Lexie’s perspective.  I wish we could have seen Theo’s side as well especially to gain insight into his interactions and memories with Richard, Lexie’s dad. I loved the enemies-to-lovers trope between Lexie and Theo—it fit well with the circumstances they were in. While both characters had moments of immaturity, it was understandable given the emotional situations they faced. Overall, I’d rate this 3.5 stars, but I rounded it up to 4 stars on Goodreads.
