About this listen
The first time Bee Bannister met Tom Wright, he couldn’t stand him.
Everything about the man aggravated him—his perfect hair and body, his confident arrogance, and the way he looked straight through Bee.
Which is why it’s such an unpleasant shock to find that he’ll be sharing space with him while on a Christmas holiday with friends in Scotland.
However, as the days fly by and snowy Edinburgh begins to work its magic on him, Bee discovers that sometimes first impressions can be very misleading. Tom is kind and funny, and somehow, rather than looking through Bee, he actually sees and likes all of him.
The two men grow closer, but will Bee follow his heart or his head when the holiday ends? And can relationships that start so badly ever lead to love?
From best-selling author Lily Morton comes a festive romantic comedy about enemies to lovers and the magic of Christmas.
This is the first book in the Wright Brothers series.

The snark and feels that I've gotten used to in this author's stories are accounted for and they never fail to make reading the story pure pleasure!
If you need some lighthearted fun and all the feels, grab this one!
Narration: Joel Leslie nailed is, as usual!
All the fun you can handle

I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet, kind of enemies-to-lovers, overcoming-first-impressions, forced proximity love story. It's classic Lily Morton, with quirky characters, snarky banter, mistaken assumptions, helpful (?) friends, and family, and a slow, sweet romance. I loved Bee and Tom, and enjoyed watching them learn more about each other after their initial inauspicious encounters. This is a sweet, low-angst listen, perfect for when you want a fun story, with plenty of humor and some (verbal) bite. The end part with Tom's family was particularly rich, especially the dinner with the pudding, I was laughing so hard I was gasping for breath. The very end felt like a loss though. I wanted to see the big moment, and I felt a little cheated.
The narration by Joel Leslie was phenomenal as always. He gets the emotions, the snark, the jokes, everything just right. I loved it.
I received a free review copy, and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.
Sweet, beautiful, unconventional love story

Story - 4 stars. The last books I read by this author were somewhat underwhelming for me personally. I was glad I tried again though. I really enjoyed Tom and especially Bee, who was adorably quirky and awkward. The setting in Edinburgh was lovely.

Tom is very steady and patient.
He's perfectly fine waiting for Bee to realize what he actually wants and to not be afraid of commitment.
I loved the snarky banter between them and their friend group.
The beautiful descriptions of Edinburgh made me nostalgic for somewhere I've never been and desperate to visit.
Joel Leslie did an amazing job narrating and bringing these characters to life.
Absolutely lovely

Tom and Bee are swoon-worthy with Tom falling for Bee very quickly and going out of his way to play tour guide just to make Bee happy.
As with all Lily’s books, this is fun and filled with snark and witty exchanges. A pleasure to listen to.

Really this book was good and sweet, the second seems to carry in directly from this one which I don’t hate.
The narration was alright, but having one narrator voice both POVs is so hard to keep characters straight, especially when I tend to do things while ear reading. Both MCs are just English…I literally had to wait for names or life details to be mentioned to know which POV I was hearing. This is obviously only an Audio issue.

This book came along at the perfect time (Summer lol) for a wintery romance narrated by Joel Leslie. But really, I have been so busy lately that a low angst, lovely book from Lily Morton was exactly what I needed to soothe my brain after a few busy days.
Bee and Tom meet during a Christmas-time trip to Edinburgh, where a mix of coworkers & friends are going on a group trip. Things between them are a bit icy at first, until Tom does a perfect little bit of grovelling and they become friends with instant chemistry. Alas, the forced proximity of a holiday rental apartment helps move things along, and overall,l this story was just a very fun time!
Things do move pretty quickly as the whole story happens during a single week, but it did make sense within the context of the story.
I enjoyed this one so much, I went back and listened to book 2, which is actually kind of book 1, as this is almost a "prequel" written a few years after Merry Measure was published.
A lovely, low angst winter romance
