In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren is a heartwarming and hilarious holiday romance with a magical twist. Mae has spent every Christmas at her family's beloved cabin in the mountains, but this year feels different. The cabin is being sold, her love life is a disaster, and she's stuck in a rut. In a moment of desperation, she makes a wish: to know what would truly make her happy. When she wakes up, she's reliving the same holiday over and over again—like a festive Groundhog Day.
Trapped in a time loop, Mae has the chance to figure out what she really wants from life and love. Each time the holiday repeats, she makes different choices, exploring paths not taken and discovering truths about herself and the people around her—especially Andrew, her brother's best friend who's been part of her life for years. As Mae navigates the loop, she begins to see that the answer to her happiness might have been right in front of her all along.
This delightful romantic comedy combines the magic of the holiday season with laugh-out-loud humor, swoon-worthy romance, and genuine emotional depth. Popular with readers who love festive settings, friends-to-lovers romance, and stories about self-discovery and second chances, it's perfect for fans of contemporary romance with heart, humor, and the cozy warmth of Christmas traditions that remind us what truly matters.
