Goodreads Synopsis:
Advertising executive Nick Wong enjoys living in Toronto. He loves late nights partying and taking women back to his penthouse. And so it is with great reluctance that he returns to his boring hometown of Mosquito Bay for Thanksgiving.This year, however, is even worse than usual. His interfering parents and grandparents, frustrated with the lack of weddings in the family, have invited blind dates for him and his three siblings. Nick’s brother Greg has been set up with Lily Tseng, who just so happens to be Nick’s latest one-night stand, the one he can’t get out of his mind.Although Nick has never been interested in settling down, Lily has him reconsidering. Perhaps he’s good for more than a single night of sex, dumplings, and bubble tea after all. But first, he has to get through this painful weekend with his family and convince her that she should be with him, not Greg…
Review:
Another novella read to kick off the HoHoHo Readathon. This was also a Thanksgiving themed read. I felt like since it was still November I wanted to start with the Thanksgiving ones first.
This story follows Nick and Lily. Lily is trying to get over her ex and also be less boring when we goes out in attempt to find a one night stand. She finds Nick - happy to help, but then she sees him again at a Thanksgiving dinner... sadly she has been set up with his brother.
This was such a fun, quick read. I really likely Lily's list of things to be less boring and try, and I liked that Nick was suddenly so into her and jealous that she was paired with his brother. The family dynamics here were also hilarious and I found the whole book overall to be so light and entertaining.
If you are looking for fun family dynamics, quick feelings for each other, and some spice, this will be a good novella to grab.
