Publisher's summary

Brighten the holidays with this funny, heartfelt rom-com about the stories—and the love—that we never forget.

When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help. Surely she can give her favorite author moral support over the holiday break and get the manuscript to her boss at Tea & Sympathy Publishing in time for the new year.

When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

As Hanukkah unfolds, Abi and Dov cozy up in his grandmother’s brownstone apartment working their way through his writer’s block and untangling plot threads. Before long, the novel starts taking shape ... and so does their simmering attraction. Will their own story end once the book is written, or is this just the first chapter?

Pretty good for what it is

Super cheesy, but you should already know that from the title, cover, and length. The two narrators are definitely not evenly matched; one is quite good and the other a bit painful. Even so, looking for something light and with a modestly entertaining story line and limited time commitment, I did listen to the whole thing. My ratings are with all of this in mind.

What a gem!

Loved this book!! Warm, funny, and smart. Full of hope, healing, romance, and baked goods! Love Liz Maverick's books for Audible, but this just may be her best. (Voice actors are charming too.)

Cute & sweet story

I just wished this story was longer! The characters were lovable (even the pup). The story was one where I could guess the ending and I enjoyed the journey to the happily ever after.

Excellent holiday romcom!

Liz Maverick wrote a wonderful holiday romance in Booked for the Holidays! Andrew Eiden and Eva Kaminsky played this out so well. I cried and laughed and Wow did this really get me into the holiday spirit & wanting to decorate! I will definitely listen to this again next year. This was a lovely book, zero heat, simply adorable.

a lovely celebration of a life well lived

I enjoyed hearing about all of the Hanukkah celebrations. I'm not Jewish but it was interesting to hear about all the traditions.
