Über das Buch

Winner of Lambda Literary Award for Best LGBTQ+ Romance
A Best New Holiday Romance by PopSugar, BuzzFeed, Refinery29, and more!

The author of the “swoon-worthy debut” (Harper’s Bazaar) The Charm Offensive returns with a festive romantic comedy about a woman who fakes an engagement with her landlord…only to fall for his sister.

One year ago, recent Portland transplant Ellie Oliver had her dream job in animation and a Christmas Eve meet-cute with a woman at a bookstore that led her to fall in love over the course of a single night. But after a betrayal the next morning and the loss of her job soon after, she finds herself adrift, alone, and desperate for money.

Finding work at a local coffee shop, she’s just getting through the days—until Andrew, the shop’s landlord, proposes a shocking, drunken plan: a marriage of convenience that will give him his recent inheritance and alleviate Ellie’s financial woes and isolation. They make a plan to spend the holidays together at his family cabin to keep up the ruse. But when Andrew introduces his new fiancée to his sister, Ellie is shocked to discover it’s Jack—the mysterious woman she fell for over the course of one magical Christmas Eve the year before. Now, Ellie must choose between the safety of a fake relationship and the risk of something real.

Perfect for fans of Written in the Stars and One Day in December, Kiss Her Once for Me is the queer holiday rom-com that you’ll want to cozy up with next to the fire.

    Also ich muss sagen, ich hätte mir definitiv etwas mehr Interaktion zwischen Ellie und Andrew gewünscht, aber abgesehen davon, war es ein wirklich wunderschönes Buch mit einer sehr tollen Geschichte. Alle Protagonistinnen und Protagonisten sind so unglaublich authentisch und nahbar gewesen. Die Autorin hat es wirklich geschafft eine tolle Weihnachtsgeschichte zu erschaffen, die zugleich kitschig und authentisch ist. Und vor allem hat sie es geschafft eine Geschichte zu schreiben, in der Körper genau so beschrieben werden, wie sie auch wirklich sind: nicht perfekt und genau deswegen wunderschön.

    Ich habe dieses Buch als Hörbuch gehört und ich mochte die Sprecherin und die Geschichte sehr. Ein tolles Buch mit einer guten queeren Lovestory

    Tropes: – second chance – “last Christmas I gave you my heart, but the next day you gave it away“ – fake fiancés sister (yeah it‘s messy, the good kind) – social anxiety – rep of ADHD – rom com

    I think I have found my Christmas book of this year! “Kiss her once for me“ is in my opinion such a delightful read – it‘s a Christmas read, but at the same time not too much of a Christmas read. I especially love how messy it is. Ellie fell in love with a woman she met one year ago and is still hung up on her. In the year that passed, her life has basically got up in flames, or at least that how it feels to her. So when she is given the opportunity, she agrees to play the fake fiancé of a man she just went out with, and join him on a Christmas vacation with his family – where she gets to meet the woman from last year again…it‘s messy like I said, and that makes it so very charming in my opinion. The characters are so unique and delightful, and I liked each of them, including the family dynamic. 4–4.5/5⭐️ 🌶️🌶️/5
