Summary:

Elena Mendez has always been career-first; with only two semesters of law school to go, her dream of working as a family lawyer for children is finally within reach. She can’t afford distractions. She doesn’t have time for love.

And she has no idea how much her life will change, the day she lends her notes to Cora McLaughlin.

A freelance writer and MBA student, Cora is just as career-driven as Elena. But over weeks in the library together, they discover that as strong as they are apart, they’re stronger together. Through snowstorms and stolen moments, through loneliness and companionship, the two learn they can weather anything as long as they have each other – even a surprise visit from Elena’s family.

From solitude to sweetness, there’s nothing like falling in love. College may be strict… but when it comes to love, Cora and Elena are ahead of the learning curve.

Archivist Comments:

I keep seeing this described as “pure fluff” with “no/little angst”.

One MC is fat, Puerto Rican and lesbian, the other is asexual, panromantic and has ADHD, they’re both students, and I believe there’s something to do with Christmas in here!
