INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A 2022 CITY LINE PICK
“Unbelievably fun. All I Want for Christmas left me singing, and swooning, with holiday feels.” —Jean Meltzer, author of The Matzah Ball
A pitch-perfect holiday rom com about two oil-and-water reality-star country singers who must fake a relationship in order to win the opportunity of a lifetime, perfect for fans of Sally Thorne's The Hating Game and Christina Lauren's In a Holidaze.
True love wasn't on their holiday wish list.
When Sadie and Max are selected as contestants on the famed reality singing show Starmaker, each thinks they’ve finally gotten their big Nashville break. But then they’re paired up for duet week and stun the world with their romantic onstage chemistry. With fans going wild for #Saxie, the network demands that they remain a duo on and offstage, or exit the competition. Faking a relationship until their final performance in the Starmaker holiday special shouldn't be too hard, except for one small problem—Sadie and Max can’t stand each other.
But with their dreams just within reach, they agree to the ruse. Will their fake relationship be exposed before they can win? Or will an unexpected trip to Banff spark real feelings by the Christmas finale?

All I Want For Christmas is a holiday rom-com about two reality-star country singers who must fake a relationship to win a singing competition. Customers appreciate the cute holiday romance and find it an easy and enjoyable read, though feedback on the book itself is mixed.
"This is an easy and predictable read. I enjoyed the story. It was perfect for when I wanted to read but didn't have the ability to focus and follow a complex story."
— Hollowise (3/5)
Not enjoyable
"Started reading it this week, and I need to say, I would not recommend this book. I'm about 200 pages in, and it is not a good story, the reasons for the characters acting certain ways or making the decisions they do, do not make sense. The ""singing competition"" is not something that was easy to write, and as such felt really rushed and skipped over. _x000D_ _x000D_ Just feels very formulaic, like it needs to hit certain points, but they are not flushed out."
— Tpain (1/5)
The Ultimate Chick Lit
"Fun, roller-coaster-type romp of a romance! I was invested enough to get very frustrated with some of the decisions of the main characters, lol."
— Sher (4/5)
A nice chrismas romance

— Angela S. (4/5)

Hallmark in a book

Praise for The Holiday Swap
“An utterly adorable, pitch-perfect romance with just the right amount of Christmas cheer. The Holiday Swap is a pure delight, I couldn’t stop from smiling.” —Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Daisy Jones & The Six
“Holiday romance fun, times two! . . . This adorable romance is the perfect countdown to Christmas. Full of sisterly love, big city and small-town hijinks, two love stories, and descriptions so delicious you’ll practically smell the gingerbread. The Holiday Swap is the perfect addition to your holiday romance shelf.” —Christina Lauren, author of The Unhoneymooners and In a Holidaze
“I love this book! It is deliciously fun and wildly romantic, and the dual settings of a baking show set in LA and a family-run bakery in a small snowy town feels like Great British Bakeoff meets Gilmore Girls.… I wanted to befriend the twins, throttle the villains, fall in love with the heroes—and bake up some sourdough.” —Jennifer Robson, international bestselling author of The Gown
"This is just what I was looking for: a light but sophisticated romance, a much-needed escape. When a baking reality show co-host competing for a promotion and her also-culinary-minded twin swap places, hilarious (and more serious) events transpire." —Deborah Leiderman, The New York Times
“It’s double the treats and double the trouble as twins swap holidays and dramas in this delightful yuletide romance from Knox…There’s both tenderness and comedy as the sisters rediscover their priorities and sibling bond while hilariously struggling to draw the line between their roles and reality. This light romantic romp is delicious fun, perfect for rom-com fans in need of some Christmas cheer.” —Publishers Weekly
"[T]his is smart women’s fiction with an unabashedly festive theme. A book to curl up with during the holidays." —Toronto Star
“This debut from Maggie Knox about twins who swap places for 12 days at Christmas is twice the fun, double the trouble and all the feels. Warm cozy bakeries, cold snowy nights, holiday traditions and two-TWO!-romances to steal my heart—what’s not to love? The smart, quick-paced writing, witty dialogue and swoon-worthy date scenes had me up all night, turning the pages to see what would happen next. I absolutely adored this book—and I can’t wait for more rom-coms from Maggie Knox!” —Chantel Guertin, bestselling author of Instamom
“The cheery romcom has a premise worthy of a Netflix movie.” —Elle
“Every bit as warm and cozy as a Hallmark Christmas movie." —PopSugar
