Holiday Review: Make My Wish Come True



Hollywood Star Arden James has an image problem and it's one she created. She left her hometown for Hollywood and never returned. Now she has a chance for the roll of a lifetime, but the Director isn't sold on her. When Arden and her agent mention the fact that she's going home for the holidays plus the fact that Cosmopolitan will cover her holiday dates with her girlfriend, he agrees to think about it.

Arden flies home; a home she left behind. She left behind her best friend, whom she was starting to develop feelings for, and her grandmother. Arden isn't sure who she's happier to see. Now she just has to convince her former best friend to be her girlfriend for the next two weeks. 
My Thoughts: I Loved this book. I'm a sucker for Hollywood stories and the best friends to lovers trope and fake dating trope. And this one was amazing. I loved the 12 dates of Christmas - especially around town. This is a Christmas story - but it's also a Hanukkah story. I love Caroline's siblings; they were adorable. And her friends were amazing too. I loved all the feelings -angst, reconnecting, and romantic. As I'm a basketball fan, I liked the moments on the court (even though neither character was playing basketball.) I didn't want this book to end! 

Cover Thoughts: I do like the little touches - the coffee cups, the dog, and the lighted tree.
