Synopsis

The holidays are fast approaching, and the Belvedere siblings are a mess. Liz, a Hollywood showrunner and responsible eldest, has no idea how to follow up her hit show’s first season, or how to deal with her giant crush on its star, Violet Grace. Birdie turned her chronic middle-child syndrome into a career as a stand-up comic, but since she spends more time wooing women than working on new material, she’s facing one-hit-wonder status, especially once she gets axed by her manager. And Rafi, sensitive romantic and the baby golden boy, proposes to his co-worker girlfriend in front of their entire company, only to be turned down by the woman he thought was the love of his life.

Born to three different fathers, the three adult children share one mother: famed actress and singer Babs Belvedere. Seeking direction and holiday cheer, all three siblings head up to their mother’s house in the country, determined to swear off love and focus on themselves and their work. But the spirit of the season seems to have different plans for them, and their best intentions are quickly derailed in the most delightful and festive of ways.

Twenty-four days till Christmas

For Liz Belvedere, the best thing about the holidays wasn’t the season’s whimsy or wonder or the chance to indulge in a heavy pour of eggnog or thick cut of peppermint fudge. It was the chance to work. Crossing everything off her endless to-do list by Christmas morning was truly the greatest gift Liz could give herself. A festive inbox zero promised the same sort of delight most people felt from catching a snowflake on the tip of their tongue or having some other snowy, swoony moment. Liz had never had a snowy, swoony moment in her life and didn’t have time to be prancing around with her mouth open in a snowstorm. It was December first, and she was very, very far from experiencing her unique brand of holiday magic. And so, despite driving past the tinseled palm trees and holiday window displays lining the streets of West Hollywood, she was not thinking about eggnog or fudge or Christmas at all. Liz Belvedere had other problems.

The cavernous parking garage was nearly empty when Liz pulled her Subaru into her dedicated space. Most people had somewhere else they’d rather be at 8:00 a.m. on a weekend. Liz, as always, was at work.

The bank of television screens in the lobby were all off, making the typically showy entrance feel like an empty theater stage. Liz flashed her ID at the security guard. “Morning, Carlos.”

“Ms. Belvedere.” He shook his head, beginning their standard riff. “It’s Sunday. Don’t you have any hobbies?”

“I tried origami,” Liz offered. “Turned out it was just a lot of paperwork.”

He chuckled, waving her through.

Why I love it

The holiday season is just around the corner, but some people have already started getting in the spirit! My sister, for instance, begins blasting Christmas music as soon as we clear our Thanksgiving dinner. If you, like her, are itching to jump into the festivities, your first step should be to read Most Wonderful.

Liz, Birdie, and Rafi are half siblings, but they love each other wholeheartedly. When Liz’s crush becomes debilitating, Birdie’s career takes a turn for the worse after a drunken hookup, and Rafi’s marriage proposal explodes in front of his (and all of his coworkers’) eyes, the Belvederes decide they need an escape. Their mom’s inn in upstate New York is the perfect place to avoid the messiness of their love lives, especially during the holidays…or so they think.

With the days getting shorter, darker, and colder, we all need the comfort of snuggling up with a cozy book. Most Wonderful is like a warm hug, featuring chaotic and lovable siblings, disastrous and adorable relationships, and the beauty of being home for the holidays. Nothing can heat up winter better than a steamy, cheery love story (or three)! Most Wonderful is not to be missed.
