And also, there are other happy endings, other than pregnancy and marriage 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 Next, we meet Cameron Diaz, who's having a terrible fight with her boyfriend, Edward Burns. It's a wonderful introduction to her character as well, because even though she appears to be tough and not as sensitive as Kate Winslet, we see subtleties that indicate she has deep feelings in her she's been repressing for a long time.

aren't you tired of repeating the same tropes over and over again? Especially in romance novels! For instance when the MC has something to say, a secret to confess - let them freaking confess!

After that, it always comes to a fight between the love interests or a separation of some sort, only to have it sorted out after a short while, then giving them their HEA.

This one was fun! I mean, it’s utterly ridiculous as two adult twins swap places for a week, but hey, if you go with it and suspend your disbelief, it brings the festive feels and oh my god does it make you wanna eat some Christmas treats! Doesn’t look like it,” Austin said. “Look, I can do the rest of the shots on my own. Then Charlie can go and get the care she needs.” Charlie did her best to glower at her co-host, who feigned a worried expression she didn’t buy for a second.

Someone she had a sour history with and her co-host on the network reality baking show Sweet & Salty, which had run for two seasons but was slated to be replaced by a new show, called Bake My Day, after the holidays. The current Sweet & Salty special they were co-hosting-a twelve-days-to-Christmas countdown, featuring twelve amateur bakers vying for the top spot and twenty-five thousand dollars-was meant to be festive and fun. However, Austin Nash left Charlie feeling more bah-humbug than merry and bright. This holiday special was also Charlie's last chance to impress the network executives and secure the Bake My Day hosting job, which would mean the end of having to share a stage with Austin Nash. This sweetest, loveliest, one of the most engaging story reminds you of feel good Hallmark movies you watch cuddling with your loved ones with a pure happy smile on your face. Wow! I have put watching this movie off for far too long. What a wonderful film with inspired acting and a crowd pleasing story. I found "The Holiday" to be charming, heartwarming, and touching.

The supporting cast is very important as they make the world feel real, they can literally make or break such movies and the actors who portrayed them were great as well. I received an unsolicited finished copy from the publisher (thank you!) and this in no way influenced my review. ** I just adored these characters, the food descriptions (my stomach growled so many times reading about the delectable treats the characters created), the camaraderie of the twins and the relationships they nurture and develop along the way. Yes, there's a plethora of heartwarming romance, but there is also a beautiful exploration of family and relationships, and the effect that lies, even well-intentioned ones, have on those around you. The novel also includes a (somewhat cheesy but not unexpected) happily-ever-after ending, a lovable dog, and an overall uplifting storyline. If you're looking for a bit of holiday cheer with a Hallmark movie vibe, then you cannot go wrong with The Holiday Swap.
