Stonewall Honor author Jake Maia Arlow delivers a sapphic Jewish twist on the classic Christmas rom-com in a read perfect for fans of Kelly Quindlen and Casey McQuiston.
It all starts when Shani runs into May. Like, literally. With her momâs Subaru.
Attempted vehicular manslaughter was not part of Shaniâs plan. She was supposed to be focusing on her monthlong paleoichthyology internship. She was going to spend all her time thinking about dead fish and not at all about how she was unceremoniously dumped days before winter break.
It could be going better.
But when a dog-walking gig puts her back in Mayâs path, the fossils sheâs meant to be diligently studying are pushed to the sideâalong with the breakup.
Then theyâre snowed in together on Christmas Eve. As things start to feel more serious, though, Shaniâs hurt over her ex-girlfriendâs rejection comes rushing back. Is she ready to try a committed relationship again, or is she okay with this just being a passing winter fling?
