Anyone who knows me knows I love, as in LOVE, Christmas.

So getting to write All I Want For Christmas (out October 2020, and out as Blame It On The Mistletoe in America October 2021), was a tinsel-covered dream come true. It’s a funny YA romcom, packed full of all things festive, and is all about Elle and Holly who swap lives in an attempt to have the perfect Christmassessesesssss. It’s also set around the two places I’ve lived – and love – London and New York, so if you’re after a subtle take on December, this is…not the book for you.

If you want to know more about it, here’s what All I Want For Christmas is all about….

US-based Elle is a social-media influencer. But sometimes online attention isn’t all it seems from the outside; with a family who are constantly on the move, and so-called friends putting pressure on her to increase her following, she decides to swap places with one of her followers for the holidays. 

Holly lives in a small village in England, and LOVES Christmas more than anything else. Nothing is going to get in the way of this year being the BEST Christmas ever… Nothing! But when her mum announces she’s selling their house, and love of her life Woody decides they should go on a “break”, her plans for the perfect Christmas start to crumble like overbaked gingerbread people.

Will swapping with Elle be Holly’s perfect opportunity to escape? And far from home, will they both find all they want for Christmas?

It’s on sale in all good book shops in store and online at Hive, Foyles, Waterstones and Amazon. And lots of other ones, but you didn’t come here to read a page of links.
