Kiss Her Once For Me by Alison Cochrun

---

KISS HER ONCE FOR ME by Alison Cochrun is a sapphic Christmas romcom that cleverly uses the fake dating trope as a backdrop for a second chance romance. It has lots of classic Christmas moments, like a snowball fight, baking, skiing, and getting snowed in, which will give readers the vibes their seeking. We also meet several quirky but lovable characters and get references to at least a dozen Christmas songs as well as pop music from the aughts. Go into this book expecting a full, unironic embrace of millennial culture, including music, slang and phrases, and even what the characters refer to as a "normcore" lifestyle.
