I hate rating books low, but this just did not work for me. It was a sweet enough story and I liked the fun, snowy Arctic setting, but, oh, this book could have been so much shorter and enjoyable. The repetition is intense, to the point I found myself skimming sections. We are constantly bombarded by everyone's thoughts and issues. Did you know Alix has commitment issues? Oh you will. Christy struggles with perfection? The overwhelming focus on the characters' tropes and the rehashing and pontificating on thoughts and feelings was incredibly frustrating. It was very slow moving with far more telling than showing. I was not that invested in Alix and Zac's relationship. THE ISLAND VILLA (Title SUMMER WEDDING in the UK) is out now!

Okay so this is the third review I've written on this book beause everytime I go to save it, it kept getting deleted... This book was such a cute christmas book for me to read and I recieved this book as a gift over christmas. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I loved the Christmas scenes written and it gave me such a christmas vibe and feel. I liked the romance between the two couples in this book who were all friends by the way. The epilogue was also cute and I would've liked a little bit more but I guess you could see where it was going. This author also has written other christmas books but I've not read them.. but I will re read this one again in the future and it is a cute simple cosy christmas book to read. I would recommend it.
