3.5 After the first book in the series rather disappointed me, my expectations were a bit low but still I had hopes that I would like Islas story better. I defintely liked this book better. The setting in the French Alps was a lot more wintery and Christmassy, so I really enjoyed the atmosphere. The story was interesting and I enjoyed the family story and their attempts to get back together as a family. The love story felt again a bit too forced for me, although I was happy with Islas decision. Still the love story lacked in emotions and I had the feeling everything was totally rushed. Judging from the title of the book I expected a way more romantic and cosy story than I got in the end.
