No spoilers; just the German review:
Vorneweg: ich war bereits vom ersten Teil nicht besonders begeistert. Diese Kurzgeschichte bewegt sich etwas auf demselben Niveau – wer Teil eins also wirklich mochte & ein großer Fan der beiden Jungs ist, sollte sich nicht unbedingt von mir abschrecken lassen.

Im Großen und Ganzen ist es eine süße Geschichte für Zwischendurch – zum Beispiel die Frühstücks- oder Kaffeepause. Es gibt Fans einen kleinen Einblick in Ridges und Micahs Beziehung sechs Monate nach »Falling From The Sky« während man sie über die Neujahrs Feiertage begleitet.
Ich stehe Kurzgeschichten zu Büchern/Serien eher kritisch gegenüber. Scheinbar beherrschen nur sehr wenige Autoren die Kunst, sie gut umzusetzen und noch weniger schaffen es, ihnen wirklich Bedeutung zu geben. Einfach nur Zucker reicht mir persönlich nicht – es muss auch einen Sinn dahinter geben. Dieser fehlt der Geschichte bis zum letzten Absatz vollkommen – und das, was der Leser dort präsentiert kriegt, wird er zu Beginn von Band zwei ohnehin erfahren, so dass diese Kurzgeschichte quasi vollkommen bedeutungslos wird.
Für den Preis von 0,99 € würde ich dieses Buch definitiv nicht weiter empfehlen.

Endgültige Wertung: ??,5


First and foremost: I wasn’t exactly a huge fan of part one. This novella is on the same level as the first book (concerning writing style, characters and ideas), so if you REALLY d the first book and are a huge fan of the boys then you might still come to enjoy it.

All in all this is a very sweet story if you’re looking for something to read in your ten minute coffee break. Fans of Ridge and Micahh get a glimpse into their relationship six months after the events of book one. During the 29 pages the reader experiences the New Year’s holidays together with them.
I’m already very critical of short stories that add to books. A lot of authors seem to be clueless about writing short stories and even more of them can’t understand that a good short story should still add something to the book they relate to and have some sort of...well...sense. Lots of sugar and sweetness are – in my opinion – not enough to justify its existence, especially when it’s 29 pages in exchange for a dollar.
Wouldn’t recommend unless you're a huge fan.

Read full review HERE! :)

I initially planned to post this review during the release date of this short story (after receiving an advanced copy from the awesome Nikki Godwin herself! *squeee*) However, life happened and I failed to do so. Nonetheless, it's better late than never eh? :)

The short story is simply a sweet read that I greatly enjoyed! It had lots of cutesy scenes between the two and it was fun seeing a new side of Micah who's usually the ball of energy but turns out to be a bit scaredy-cat too. However, the story still showcased how his heart is soft. I d Micah and Ridge's date and the part when Micah wore Ridge's sweater! I always found scenes that cute :3

Lastly, THAT ending!!!



I can now say that Nikki Godwin really knows how to give a splashing ending* to her works! That last scene was all kinds of adorable! Ahhh so much hearts! Perfect!

*a splashing ending AND gorgeous covers, if I may say ;) love love LOVE Halfway There's cover! (although Falling From The Sky's cover is still my favorite haha!) Chiara891 237
