Most Wonderful: A Christmas Novel by Georgia Clark

Liz, the responsible eldest, is a successful Hollywood showrunner struggling with what comes next - and with an inconveniently enormous crush on her show's star, Violet Grace. Middle child Birdie has turned being funny into a career as a stand-up comic, but she's spending more time charming women than writing new material, and her career is beginning to wobble. Then there's Rafi, the romantic youngest sibling, whose very public proposal to the woman he thought was the one ends with a very public no.

Fortunately, Liz, Birdie, and Rafi have somewhere to retreat: the country home of their mother, celebrated actress and singer Babs Belvedere.

The siblings arrive determined to forget romance, regroup, and concentrate on themselves and their careers. Christmas, naturally, has other ideas.

Smart, funny, emotional, and deliciously festive, Georgia Clark's Most Wonderful is a queer holiday romantic comedy about messy families, creative lives, unexpected love, and figuring out what you actually want when the life you planned takes an unexpected turn.
