A note for parents

In a Holidaze is a lighthearted romantic fantasy with a time-loop premise centered on self-discovery and finding happiness. While the book contains mild sexual content, some alcohol use, and a car accident, these elements are not graphic or central to the story. The tone is humorous and reflective rather than dark, making it most appropriate for mid-to-older teens who enjoy contemporary romance with fantastical elements.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year… but not for Maelyn Jones. She’s living with her parents, hates her going-nowhere job, and has just made a romantic error of epic proportions. But perhaps worst of all, this is the last Christmas Mae will be at her favorite place in the world—the snowy Utah cabin where she and her family have spent every holiday since she was born, along with two other beloved families. Mentally melting down as she drives away from the cabin for the final time, Mae throws out what she thinks is a simple plea to the universe: Please. Show me what will make me happy. The next thing she knows, tires screech and metal collides, everything goes black. But when Mae gasps awake…she’s on an airplane bound for Utah, where she begins the same holiday all over again. With one hilarious disaster after another sending her back to the plane, Mae must figure out how to break free of the strange time loop—and finally get her true love under the mistletoe.
