Her client, Peter, feeling apologetic invites her to spend Chanukah with his family. This was a fast, heart-warming holiday-themed book. I loved the characters and what they each brought to the story.
I would’ve loved it if the romance between Kara and Peter was more detailed. I wanted to have tiny moments that lead up to their relationship being just clients to more so that it would feel more authentic to me.
However, this is such a great book to pick up if you’re in a reading slump and you want something short and sweet. It’s also a great book to read if you need an easy read.

You need to give the author credit for the way we were able to read and understand Jack so profoundly without having a point of view of hers written. I think the biggest challenge of this book would have to be making out of it without falling in love with Ellie, Jack and the rest of the family. Andrew, Dylan, Katherine, the grandmas… This was such a beautiful combination of characters in one family and they never failed to have me giggling or crying.
Also, this is a tiny detail to some but as a non-binary person, it was so fantastic to see a character who was just like me.
This was my first book from this author but I think it’s safe to say that after reading Kiss Her Once For Me, it won’t be the last....more
