Find Swoon-Worthy Holiday Romance in Christina Lauren’s Latest, In a Holidaze

One Christmas wish, two brothers, and a lifetime of hope are on the line for hapless Maelyn Jones in In a Holidaze, the quintessential holiday romantic novel by Christina Lauren, the New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year…but not for Maelyn Jones. She’s living with her parents, hates her going-nowhere job, and has just made a romantic error of epic proportions.

But perhaps worst of all, this is the last Christmas Mae will be at her favorite place in the world—the snowy Utah cabin where she and her family have spent every holiday since she was born, along with two other beloved families. Mentally melting down as she drives away from the cabin for the final time, Mae throws out what she thinks is a simple plea to the universe: Please. Show me what will make me happy.

The next thing she knows, tires screech and metal collides, everything goes black. But when Mae gasps awake…she’s on an airplane bound for Utah, where she begins the same holiday all over again. With one hilarious disaster after another sending her back to the plane, Mae must figure out how to break free of the strange time loop—and finally get her true love under the mistletoe.

Jam-packed with yuletide cheer, an unforgettable cast of characters, and Christina Lauren’s trademark “downright hilarious” (Helen Hoang, author of The Bride Test) hijinks, this swoon-worthy romantic read will make you believe in the power of wishes and the magic of the holidays.

When Fox and Sienna are pitted against each other in every competition, tensions run high, and attractions run higher.

Can Fox and Sienna see past the reality show drama and take a chance on love? Or will one of them end up getting played?

2 unlikely traveling companions

1 zippy little dog

Georgia Darcy never asked to be a movie star’s little sister but nothing will keep her from getting to her brother’s wedding on Christmas Day. Even if Mother Nature thwarts her traveling plans.

When all flights cancel, she’s unexpectedly paired with a chronically unlucky rideshare and his overly cute dog, finding that turbulence isn’t exclusive to airplanes. Especially when it comes to her feelings.

Wyatt Silva, flat broke and fresh out of options, embarks on a detour road trip alongside delightfully sweet Georgia, who not only stumbles over his dog, but also into his heart.

Doomed with nutty disasters of ridiculous proportions, the cockeyed couple is forced to find creative means to trek it across the country. Will they find romance along the way or will a few secrets and a sleigh full of questions prevent them from jingling all the way home in time for the holidays?

Sleet, snow, and a Winnebago. It’ll take a Christmas miracle to navigate their stormy attraction to one another and reach Pemberley for Christmas.

If you love cute dogs, living nativities, mistletoe kisses, and all the Christmas feels, spend an afternoon snuggled up with Georgia, Wyatt, and Reeses the Jack Russell Terrier in Driving Miss Darcy.
