Make My Wish Come True
A sapphic Netflix-esque Christmas movie meets How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days from the New York Times bestselling author duo of She Gets the Girl Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick.
Hollywood teen actor Arden James' messy reputation is interfering with her career when a notoriously picky director won't give her a role based on her party-girl image. So she and her publicist make up a lie – not only is she from a small town (true) but her childhood best friend Caroline, is her long-term girlfriend (false) and she can prove it when she goes home for Christmas.
Caroline Beckett hasn't thought about her ex-best friend Arden James for years, focusing instead on her dreams about becoming a journalist. When Arden turns up on her doorstep and promises her an article in Cosmopolitan magazine on their twelve snow-covered romantic days together, Caroline agrees to play along.
But when old feelings start to bubble up, what will fall faster – Arden and Caroline or the Christmas Eve snow?
A gorgeous, heartwarming cosy romance - perfect for the holidays!

Content warnings: alcohol consumption/underage drinking, references to drug use, references to parental abandonment.
Rep: Caroline (MC) is cis, white, lesbian, and Jewish. Arden (MC) is cis, Korean-American, and lesbian. Side achillean characters, side lesbian character, side Korean-American characters, side Jewish characters.
Rachael and Alyson have done it again!
Not only have they managed to write an incredibly wonderful holiday YA novel, but they managed to pack it full of heart, warmth, and hope.
I am so happy to have read this one - I laughed, I cried, I did the kicky feet, I clapped. It was all the good things.
I especially loved how, in a town full of Christmas, how it managed to carve an important spot for those who aren't Christian or Catholic, and want to celebrate their Jewish faith. This was such a lovely touch, and it shows that we can make changes even when 'tradition' is strong.
There is more I'd love to say, but I don't want to spoil it.
But this is my new favourite YA holiday romcom, and I can't wait for y'all to read and love it, too.
