Publisher's Summary
The novel from the bestselling author of The Flatshare and The No-Show.
Two sworn enemies. A failing hotel. One chance to save the season...
It's the busiest season of the year, and Forest Manor Hotel is quite literally falling apart. So when Izzy and Lucas are given the same shift on the hotel's front desk, they have no choice but to put their differences aside and see it through.
The hotel won't stay afloat beyond Christmas without some sort of miracle. But when Izzy returns a guest's lost wedding ring, the reward convinces management that this might be the way to fix everything. With four rings still sitting in lost property, the race is on for Izzy and Lucas to save their beloved hotel - and their jobs.
As their bitter rivalry turns into something much more complicated, Izzy and Lucas begin to wonder if there's more at stake here than the hotel's future. Can the two of them make it through the season with their hearts intact?

Easy listen
It took me a while to get into this book as it initially seemed very cringe. After persisting and getting further into it I found it enjoyable and easy to listen to. It was predictable and nothing overall exciting happens but it was a nice enough story and the characters grew on me.

I really loved this book. Beth O’Leary just knows how to write these stories where it keeps you engaged and you care for the characters she’s created. I wanted to be part of this world and watching it with my own eyes. Definitely recommend.
