I enjoyed this book for the cozy winter ski vibes. I wish I could live in the penthouse in the middle of a giant winter snow-storm! The romance itself wasn't anything new, but it was fun. I liked watching Tyler and Alix fall in love, though it was a bit unbelievable at some points. Tyler was charming and thoughtful and Alix was level-headed...to a fault maybe. She had way to much patience with Lauren and I would have been livid where Alix was too passive at some points. But even then Alix admitted why she was so forgiving...almost to a repetitive point. Like, we get it.

I saw the ending from a mile away but I was happy to see how it played out. There were still a few small elements that took me by surprise and kept me invested in the story overall. This book isn't a groundbreaking romance but it's fine and it's vibey and for those reasons I am glad I read it!
