Chloe’s people-pleasing tendencies have led her to where she is now: jobless and single. So Chloe (25yo) is returning home with a determination to use rejection therapy to cure herself before Christmas. What she wasn’t counting on was a man who continues to say yes to every ridiculous suggestion.
The main characters exhibit the extreme ends of a spectrum of not caring what people think to the point of not caring about being rude versus people-pleasing to one’s own detriment. Obviously, the best answer is a balance somewhere in the middle, and the story is about Chloe’s silly journey to find her own balance. I was really worried about a dramatic climax and cringy third-act breakup, but I was pleasantly surprised that Ferguson took the characters through a much more modest response. Overall, a cute romance for the holidays.
