Get all the nostalgia of a classic holiday romance with a heartfelt touch! In this episode, Jenny Bayliss joins me on the couch to talk about her new book, Kiss Me at Christmas. We talk about our protagonist, Harriet, an almost-empty-nester dealing with her daughter's extended holiday trip, a drunken one-night stand, and a rundown theater where she organizes a Christmas play with her students to appease a clever theater owner.
Bayliss shares insights into her characters, the inspiration behind her holiday-themed novels, and the relatable challenges of middle-age life. We also talk about Jenny's personal holiday traditions, favorite books, and indie bookshops.
If you love heartwarming tales filled with community spirit and holiday cheer, you won't want to miss this conversation!
