Thank you to netgalley for a chance to review this book. Snowed in for Christmas is a cute holiday rom com. Grumpy/sunshine second chance tropes are a couple of my favorites. I did feel it gave more of a winter vibe vs Christmas vibe.

Thank you to the publisher and netgalley for the read! This was so sweet with a opposites attract dual POV. It was so cute and fun, with awesome main characters. The storyline of love developing between the two of them was also so cozy. Perfect for a cold day in front of the fire!!

Thank you to the publisher for the gifted e-copy.

Snowed in for Christmas was a great book to speed read in the days between Christmas and New Years. It's light and fluffy, with a decent amount of steam and a grumpy sunshine romance.

Becca is a sorority house mom intent on spending the two weeks of holiday break on her own, snuggled up in the empty sorority house with books and snacks. A huge blizzard ruins her plans when it knocks out the power and she'd probably freeze to death if she stayed in her house. Luckly, her hottie neighbor, Harrison, comes to the rescue and invites her to stay with him until the power comes back on.

Becca and Harrison (of course) have a history together - a date two years ago that Becca thought went really well, but Harrison never called afterwards. She's been holding a grudge ever since, and isn't super excited to spend time with him at his house. The chemistry is still there, and one thing leads to another for a blizzard fling that will surely lead to more.

So...Becca is a fun character - quirky and funny, talks too much when she gets nervous, likes to read and knit...Harrison is a bit of an a*s though. He has some issues with how things went in his first marriage, and also with his parents and brother. I don't ever really feel a connection beyond physical between them. Speaking of that, the sex scenes are a bit cringy in terms of how they're written. It just didn't work for me.

All in all, a decent forced proximity, grumpy sunshine, kind of second chance romance that isn't TOO Christmassy. I'd probably read more from this author!

Thank you, netgalley and Forever publishers, for sending this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Sorority mom Becca is staying in the sorority house during winter break when a giant blizzard that she wasn't prepared for came. Her neighbor Harrison, who she went on a date with a few years prior invites her to stay with him in his house because he was prepared for the storm. They both feel a little awkward because Harrison ghosted her after their date, but they both still feel attracted to each other, and they decide to be blizzard buddies with benefits.
I loved Becca. She was super funny and likable. Harrison was ok. He didn't feel as fully formed as Becca did, in my opinion. The spice in the book was great. I also didn't really like the parts with the football team. It felt disjointed. Overall, I liked this Christmas book and would suggest it to fans of second chance romance and forced proximity tropes.

Both characters were annoying and flat and the set up of a blizzard forcing them to cohabitate sounded more uncomfortable and awkward than sexy and steamy like this book would have you believe. But perhaps that is on me for thinking sub-zero temperatures in a house with no power is NOT the perfect set-up for having sex with one's neighbor.

This was a very fun winter festivity reads. I really love the cover art and really enjoyed the writing style. Definitely will be recommending this one!

Becca is a sorority house mom who is looking forward to the quiet holidays in the house alone. But when the power goes out and breaks a window, making the house uninhabitable, she has to ask her grump neighbor Harrison for help. He’s the football coach who also ghosted her after a steamy kiss, but he is the only person who can help. He offers to let her stay in his house as long as the storm is going and until she gets her house in tiptop shape again.

They decide since they are all alone together to be “blizzard buddies” who just hook up for the storm. But that spark was definitely still there. They also talk about their lives and their family relationships and they have so much in common. I couldn’t believe Harrison’s family and I would never have been able to hold back if someone spoke to someone I loved like his parents did. I was heartbroken for Harrison.

I loved this book! I wasn’t quite prepared for how steamy it was going to be! But Becca and Harrison had such good chemistry. I think the break after the steamy smooch just made them realize they did have something good. I loved the Grumpy Sunshine trope and of course only one bed. Both cared for their players/members so much.

Grumpy x Sunshine continues to reign supreme when it comes to romance tropes. Snowed In For Christmas follows the story of Becca and Harrison, neighbors with two wildly different personalities, and their time together when their town is hit with a blizzard right before Christmas. I absolutely loved watching the characters realize that they were developing feelings for the other, but did not enjoy the miscommunication they had throughout the book.

Unfortunately, not my favorite Christmas read. It was cute if you aren’t expecting much but the plot and the writing just did not work for me. The thoughts and dialog of the characters were just too much for me. Too cringy, too sing song. I’m sorry, this just didn’t work.

Becca is a sorority house mom who lives next door to the grumpy football coach, Harrison, who ghosted her after they went on a single date two years ago. During winter break, Becca is alone in the house when a huge blizzard wipes out her power. Becca is highly unprepared for the winter weather, so she is relieved when Harrison invites her to stay at his house until the power is restored. Sparks fly when the two are forced to finally confront their past and wait out the winter weather together.

Overall, this was a cute and cozy holiday read. I really liked the use of the forced proximity trope and that Becca was a uniquely relatable and imperfect FMC, which is often difficult to find in romance novels. This novel started out strong for me, but I quickly got frustrated with the recurring miscommunication leading to lots of conflict between the characters. Overall, this was a quick winter read that would be great for anyone looking for a spicy holiday story!

Thank you to NetGalley and Forever for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review!

I really enjoyed this! It's a fun concept -- two neighbors stranded during a winter storm and power outage help each other get through a tough few days -- but more than that, I loved the characters.

It's worth saying that as a Texan who lived through the deadly 2021 winter storm, this might be a triggering read for those who also went through that, so proceed with caution!

Oh this was a fun one. I happened to read it at Christmas time, and while traveling to see family in Illinois, so it really helped it feel on theme! Becca and Harrison are neighbors who get snowed in together during a terrible blizzard. You need to suspend disbelief a little bit about the level of cold and how quickly the insides of the houses cooled off…but I just absolutely loved these characters, and seeing how things played out between them. Becca was my spirit sister with her “weird” colorful life that I absolutely related to so so much. Just a super fun holiday romance!

Holiday break has come, and along with it, a huge blizzard. When the power goes out, Harrison, the college football coach, makes his way next door to get Becca, the sorority house mom, so that they can at least be stranded together. Having a buddy through this snowstorm just makes sense, but as the chemistry between them heats up, Becca has to keep in mind that Harrison is not dating material and remind herself of the time he ghosted her after what she thought was a great date.

I knew this book would be a winner when I was laughing out loud in the first couple chapters. This book was just so much fun! I loved seeing Becca and Harrison unravel each other’s layers as they got to know each other - and both characters have so much more to them than what meets the eye. Their chemistry was insane and this story had the perfect amount of steam. I also enjoyed the pieces that included their jobs and how special it was that they had such a great relationship with their students. This book gave all the fun cozy, winter/holiday vibes!

Becca Fairfield is the sorority mom at a sorority house where she looks after a bunch of college girls. She’s focused on her job, and hasn’t found the right guy yet. She’s quirky and the guys she’s dated haven’t understood her. That includes the football coach next door, Harrison Cooper. When Becca and Harrison went on a date two years ago, he ghosted her. Now, they’re both home alone during a huge blizzard. When the power goes out and one of the sorority house’s windows breaks, Harrison insists that Becca come to his house to wait out the storm. The freezing temperatures force them to cuddle to warm each other up with their body heat. They agree to just be “Blizzard Buddies” and have a short romance during the storm, but it isn’t easy to let go of these new feelings once the snow clears.

I have to admit, I felt cold while reading this story about the snow storm. It was scary to imagine a storm like that, especially when they lost power in severely cold temperatures. Becca and Harrison’s romance was out of convenience, since they were attracted to each other while they were snowed in, but they did have some things in common that made it seem like the relationship would last. The story had a really cute ending too!

Snowed In for Christmas is a cute holiday romance!

Thank you Forever for providing a digital copy of this book.

Content warnings: car accident, drunk driving

This was a cute and spicy holiday romance. If you enjoy grumpy/sunshine and forced proximity/one bed tropes you’ll enjoy this book. There was a lot of fun banter as well as some deeper conversations. I will say the miscommunication towards the end was a little unbelievable and the ending seemed to move a little too quickly. Overall, it was a very enjoyable read. Thank you too NetGalley and Forever Books for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you to Netgalley, Forever Publishing, and the author for the ARC!

Becca went out with Harrison, her neighbor, 2 years ago and it great, or so she thought… but she must have read all the vibes wrong because he ghosted her. A blizzard is scheduled to hit town, and hole up in Harrison’s house and wait out the storm.
Things heat up between quickly.
Read for:
-Forced proximity
-grumpy sunshine
- one bed
-second chance love

I thought it was pretty predictable and cheesy and didn’t expect all the spice after the Hallmark-y start to the book.

Grumpy sunshine is my favorite trope so it’s no surprise I loved this one. This spicy Christmas story is one to definitely add to the Christmas tbr !

In the category of chick-lit romance I am giving this book 3.5 stars and rounding up to 4 stars. "Snowed In for Christmas" is the story of a Sorority "house-mom" rescued by her next door neighbor and college football coach during a weekend blizzard during the Christmas holiday. Personally speaking as a sorority woman, I appreciate the tact and tone author Jaqueline Snowe used when writing about sorority women and sorority life. Snowe focuses on the positive aspects of Greek life in regards to service projects, friendships and character building when writing about the experience of her female protagonist who is a house-mom for a sorority. I found this book to be a quick and fun "vacation read" and it definitely fits the category of romance due to several spicy scenes. I received a free digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my fair and honest review.

This cute little story has quite a bit of smut in it! Readers looking for that would enjoy this. I tend to prefer a slow burn so it didn’t give me all the feels, but the characters were sweet, there was some extra family drama here and there and I was entertained.

Fun grumpy/sunshine holiday romance.

Becca is a sweet, fun loving sorority house mom. Harrison is her grumpy football couch neighbor who she has avoided since they had a date two years ago and he ghosted her.

Some miscommunication on the ghosting, which we learn later.

Then a huge snowstorm hits. The college kids have gone home for Christmas. Power goes out at the sorority house and Harrison offers to let her stay at his home where he has a fireplace. She reluctantly agrees.

This was a sweet romance, and Harrison ends up more awkward than grumpy.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Forever for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
