About
From digitally bestselling author Kristen Bailey comes a heartfelt and hilarious Christmas story about a woman trying to take on the holidays cold turkey: no alcohol, no partying, no men.
Phoebe loves Christmas. She loves the chaos, the cocktails, the glitter, the late nights and the excuse to live life at full volume. As a PR executive in London, December has always meant one long, boozy, glittery celebration. Her life may be a mess, but it is a festive, fabulous one.
Until it isn't.
After one spectacularly disastrous night out, Phoebe's sister, Molly, challenges her to attempt the impossible: one Christmas completely cold turkey. No alcohol. No men. No wild partying.
Enter Noah: an American master's student temporarily dog-sitting for Molly, he's charming, reserved and quietly observant. When Phoebe's train to Devon is cancelled, she persuades Noah to drive her to her family's home for Christmas, dog in tow.
Over the course of their snowy, hilarious, heart-melting road trip, Phoebe discovers that Christmas can still sparkle without champagne, that connection can be quieter but deeper and that joy and excitement don't have to come with chaos. Noah, meanwhile, learns how to loosen his grip on routine, swear creatively in British and embrace the magic of Christmas crackers, carpool karaoke and chance romance.
Warm, funny and full of redemption, this is a holiday rom-com about choosing growth, redefining happiness and finding love where you least expect it. Mother-of-four, rum-drinker, binge-watcher, receipt hoarder, enthusiastic but terrible cook. KRISTEN BAILEY also writes. Apparently, she's also funny but her husband doesn't think so.
Her first books were published in 2016, and since then she's kept writing. Do her books have a genre? Who knows? It's contemporary-women's-humorous, sometimes romantic, often feel-good fiction for people who don't mind a knob joke. She's known for her Callaghan Sisters series, the first of which, Has Anyone Seen My Sex Life? was a top ten Kindle bestseller. Her novel, Great Sexpectations, was nominated for a 2023 Romantic Novelists' Association Award.
Kristen lives in Hampshire, UK. She also is a whiz at world capitals and thinks pineapple belongs on pizza. Don't fight her on this.
