'If you're like me and rewatch THE HOLIDAY every year on repeat, this book is for you!'

One holiday home swap. Two love stories.

🎄 ❄ ✨ 🏖

Ramona Tucker's mother throws the best Christmas Eve parties, but this year, Ramona would rather be anywhere else. No one knows her wedding's been called off, and clinging to the hope that it's just a 'break', she's desperate to avoid her family's questions.

Two thousand miles away, Chelsea Flint is facing a crisis of her own. Once a rising star in LA's art scene, she's lost her creative spark, and now her late parents' beachside cottage is on the line.

When a chance opportunity leads Ramona and Chelsea to swap homes for the holidays, their Christmas plans take a surprising turn. In Malibu, Ramona finds herself unexpectedly drawn to an intriguing, sun-soaked fitness instructor who seems to understand her better than she does herself. Meanwhile in snowy Chicago, Chelsea's quiet retreat is interrupted by a surprise visitor: Ramona's roguishly handsome friend, Carlos, whose carefree charm might just be hiding something deeper.

As sparks fly on opposite sides of the country, both women realise that the greatest gift you can give yourself this Christmas is to become the leading lady of your own life - and maybe even open your heart to love when you least expect it...

Brimming with escapist fun and sizzling romance, a dose of poignant self-reflection, and a little holiday magic, The Most Wonderful Time is a warm and relatable novel that will delight at Christmas and throughout the year.
