Elementary school teacher
Kelly Byrne loves Christmas and is very superstitious. When
this mysterious woman tells her she's already met The One and
will be with him come Christmas, this sends Kelly into a tizzy and she
immediately spends the next two weeks before Christmas tracking her unmarried
exes and checking into those old feels for
her old unmarried exes to see if they have been naughty, nice, and , for
her---The One.
During those two
weeks, she ends up crossing off those exes after she reunites with them and
finds during this time she is becoming super attracted to her very best friend
, a man she never thought she would have those type of feelings for. Mark
Blakely is more than just her BFF- he is her neighbor and one awesome
chef. Mark takes this time while
Kelly is trying to figure out who her ONE is, to prove to her that he ultimately
is her one and make her see that he has always been there and has been in love
with her pretty much forever.
The story has its
ups and downs and we see Kelly not so focused on herself finally toward the end
of the story when she realizes that Mark is her True One and she takes a leap
of faith and hopes she can prove she is in love with him and that she does want
him in her life forever. It took Kelly getting out of the friend role and
seeing Mark in the boyfriend / forever mate role to make her see he is the one
for her. But there were some twists in the story and Mark was walking away
after Kelly , it seemed, took his love for granted and didn’t open her heart to
him. Will Kelly be able to win Mark back? Or is this the end of Kelly and
Mark?
I liked this
sweet Best friends to lovers story. It was, at times, slow but overall had a
sweet story and message. I did like the ending and felt Mark was the perfect
book boyfriend.
