A cute wintery romance in the Adirondacks. I liked the small town setting and the characters. Cori is lovely and I wish I could visit her store. Liz was fine too but I was hoping for more. I had a hard time believing the mess she made. The chemistry was there but was slow and didn’t payoff the way I hoped. I also had trouble following some of the timing. It was cute, I flew through it, but not my favorite.

Short summary: Liz isn’t home for long. She’ll be there the most she needs to be to help her family and find a job and then she’s definitely leaving the small town she fled after high school. But then she meets Cori, and the town doesn’t seem quite so bad anymore.
