Marc and Jamie 🥰🎄 A cruel winter with you by Ali Hazelwood Let me introduce you to the short Christmas story that completely stole my heart this season 🥹🫠 It’s sweet, fun, and so adorable! One of the reasons it’s an easy 5-star read for me is the quotes and you will found so many good ones in this story. It’s an intense holiday romance where we meet Jamie and her best friend’s brother, Marc… who has been not-so-secretly in love with her for years 💕 Here’s the trope: Second-chance romance Forced proximity in a snowstorm Childhood friends to lovers Long-buried feelings finally confessed Holiday setting with tension and warmth #holidayromance #bookrecs #alihazelwood
