Snowed In - Catherine Walsh

Christian and Megan were such an enjoyable couple - the history between them added to their building feelings and I thought Christian had the perfect personality for this type of read. I really enjoyed the story line of this book, I liked how when you thought you knew something about the main character Megan's past, the author throws in some more tidbits of info to make you think - hold on there's more to this than we first thought. A very nice fun Christmas read.
Thanks so much Bookouture and Netgalley for this e-arc in return for my honest thoughts and opinions.

Her best yet. I think the author has really found her voice and is amazing at writing humor without it being trite.
Typically holidays books are not my thing, but I'd read this over and over.

Wonderfully paced, the perfect cosy romcom. Exactly what you expect and exactly what you need but done so, so well! Thanks NetGalley!

Megan fled her own wedding five years ago, leaving her small village for Dublin. Christian, an old schoolmate who witnessed her departure, encounters her again by chance in a Dublin pub. Both facing awkward homecoming visits, they agree to fake date during their two-week stay, leading to a rollercoaster of emotions and entertaining events. Set in the world of "Holiday Romance," readers catch up with familiar characters while Christian and Megan take center stage. Their flirty banter and chemistry shine, with Christian portrayed as a thoughtful and supportive partner. The story is filled with laugh-out-loud moments, touching family interactions, and a refreshing absence of a third act breakup. Fans of the series will eagerly anticipate future installments featuring other beloved characters.

This was cute and predictable. It took me forever to get through it because I wasn’t hooked or excited to see where the story was going.

Catherine Walsh is perfection. I LOVED Holiday Romance and I loved Snowed In! The Emily Henry of festive novels, which is a high praise coming from me.

I read the first installment of this series and LOVED it and now I LOVED this one. Catherine Walsh can write my love story any time.

Funny, heartfelt, likeable characters, and a great setting.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the eARC

My first book by Catherine Walsh was Holiday Romance, which was one of my fave reads of 2022. It was the perfect combination of romance and cuteness and banter. And I'm so glad to say that Snowed In lived up to it.
I absolutely loved Christian in book 1 and I was so so excited when I found out he was getting his own book.
It was a real treat getting into his head and follow him as he grows up and gets to find his person.
Megan was amazing, she was fun and cute and I loved how she learned to stand up for herself throughout the book. Also, her concept of "angry knitting in the car" is something I absolutely need to try!!

Definitely recommend this one if you need a little pick me up, a little romance with holiday cheer !

Thank you NetGalley, Bookouture and the author for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.

I absolutely love Catherine Walsh this is my second book of hers and I just loved it!! As usual she lives up to my expectations. I love books that have fake dating that lead to romance.

I really enjoyed this read, perfect for the winter time and the couple was very likeable! I love fake dating that turns into love and this book was all of that. Being snowed in at the cabin was a plus.

I have not read anything by this author before, but I will definitely be looking out for their work in the future. I loved seeing the story unfold and seeing the characters grow.

Yes yes yes!! I read every book Catherine Walsh writes! If she writes it I know it will be a 5 star read! I just need more of them. This book follows one of the brothers, Christian, who we met in Holiday Romance. In this one Christian and Megan go back to their hometown and they are fake dating, until they aren't. OMG the best Holiday Rom-Com books I've read! Please write more and faster!!!

I enjoyed this book immensely. It was the perfect book to read by the fire under a nice blanket. I will be definitely reading more books by Catherine Walsh in the future. If you like holiday and winter romances (or even romcoms in general), then this is the perfect book for you! It gave me Love Actually or the Holiday vibes, so if you enjoy those Christmas movies you will also enjoy this book. I can also imagine if you enjoy Christmas movies on the Hallmark Channel you will also adore this book.

I thought this book was so cute and the perfect Christmas/winter read! The main characters are so fun and made we want to see where they’ll be in 10 years.

Catherine Walsh is easily becoming one of the auto-read authors. I love her writing style, the banter her main characters have and the giddy feeling I get every time I read her books.

This book was just “meh” for me. I felt like I was reading it because I had to finish it instead of reading it because I wanted to finish it. I can’t quite put my finger on what it was.

Christmas rom com!! And what is not to love about the fake dating trope!
Can’t recommend this enough if you want a good Christmas romance read!

Great festive season rom com for Christmas time. The storyline and writing style was amazing. Characters were very loveable.

This is my 2nd book by this author and she definitely someone I would want to keep reading from. Loved the book

Absolutely adore this book and can't wait to read the next book in the series .

Fake dating at its best set during the Christmas season makes for a warm , romantic embrace with each page. Lovely characters who belong together make for a delightful read.

Megan is returning home for Christmas four years after leaving her finance at the alter. Christian hates the questions from his family about why he's still single. So after bumping into each other , these childhood friends decide to fake date their way through each of their family holiday celebrations, only to find that the greatest gift of all this Christmas season is each other.

Swoony and glorious -- I could not put this book down and hated to see it end -- even though the ending is very satisfying.

This book is funny and the characters have great chemistry.

I enjoyed everything about this book – from the idyllic wintery setting to the relationships between the characters. I loved the family dynamics. There were a few bumps in the road, but overall I liked all the family members, and some friends.

The ending, especially the epilogue was very sweet. If you're looking for a lighthearted Christmas read with a fair bit of drama, then this is your book.
