Publisher's summary

Two rival coworkers with two very big secrets.... What could possibly go wrong? Cozy up with this charming holiday romance by USA Today best-selling author Tif Marcelo.

Lila Santos is ready for her last winter break of high school. The snow in her small town of Holly, New York, is plentiful, the mood is as cozy as a fuzzy Christmas sweater, and she's earning extra cash working at the local inn - AKA the setting of the greatest film of all time, Holiday by the Lake - while moonlighting as an anonymous book blogger.

But her perfect holiday plans crash to a halt when her boss's frustratingly cute nephew, Teddy Rivera, becomes her coworker. Lila is type A; Teddy is type “Anything but Lila’s Way", and the two of them can’t stop butting heads over tangled icicle lights and messy gift shop merch. But when they accidentally switch phones one afternoon, they realize they've both been hiding things from each other. Will their secrets - and an unexpected snowstorm - bring these rivals together?

“I swooned for the romance!” (Jasmine Guillory, New York Times best-selling author of The Proposal, on Tif Marcelo's The Key to Happily Ever After)

Cute Christmas Book

That was a cute short Christmas book for anyone who wants to waste some time on a happy book
So the story is about Lila who has a secret blog that she doesn't want anybody knowing about, and then we meet Teddy who is a champion in climbing but he doesn't want anyone knowing about this secret, in a twist of fate they both know each other's secret and in effort to keep their secrets they form an unlikely friendship where they talk about their secret dreams
the book is short and clean cut, but the title and the marketing of this book is so off that it sets my expectations all over the place, because there was an emphasis on the switching the phone thing which didn't even last a chapter in the book .. but overall it was a sweet book

Cute for Christmas but some plot holes

I liked this overall but I feel like the inciting incident didn’t make sense? Her dad’s business struggling was enough to get doxed? I don’t know it just seems like a reach. Cute story though!

Holiday young romance

Cute story about a Lila a graduating high school senior that is worrying about college and Teddy, who is in town for rock climbing that he is keeping secret from his parents in California and is Aunt that he is staying with. The story is about their relationship and secrets. It is a nice lesson about the perils of keeping secrets. I love that Lila goes after her dream.

Cute YA Holiday Romance

Very fun! A little predictable, but I liked it. Very fun to read during the holidays. I like that it is clean. I could easily put it in my classroom library and have no issues!
