Last Christmas, Ellie Oliver had a Christmas fling with a mysterious woman named Jack. Ellie felt on top of the world, newly transplanted to Portland and working a dream job. Now she’s jobless, loveless, and depressed. When a chance encounter with her landlord, Andrew, leads to a marriage of convenience, Ellie is shocked to discover that her mysterious woman is, in fact, Andrew’s sister. Cochrun’s (
The Charm Offensive) latest is a sexy Christmas romance with not just a love triangle but a “love trapezoid,” composed of Ellie, Andrew, Andrew’s ex, and Jack. Natalie Naudus narrates this slightly steamy audio, providing lively characterizations and tapping into the novel’s smart banter and momentum. The relationships between the characters will keep listeners engaged and hoping for a happy ending for all. The novel offers a sensitive representation of what it is like to live with generalized anxiety disorder, all the while showing that a person can be more than their diagnosis.
VERDICT This joyful queer holiday novel delights. Share with fans of Christina Lauren’s In a Holidaze or Casey McQuiston’s One Last Stop.
