Just as Tia's relationship with her boyfriend starts to crumble, she is pulled away for a family holiday to a Black-owned farm. Quincy's family is hosting the winter ball for the first time and want everything to be perfect for the annual event. Although the two don't get along, they might be able to work together and get what both of them need.

Another great book by Abiola Bello! I look forward to reading more from this author.

A very cute YA read. Easy and Simple to but a little on the nose with the "Drama"

City girl Tia's mom decides to take her and her sisters to the countryside for a 2 week holiday right at Christmas-time. This puts a damper on Tia's birthday plans for her boyfriend Mike, but right before she leaves, Mike tells her that he wants to take a break. And poor Tia doesn't understand that this is guy code for "we are breaking up".

Out in the countryside, Tia meets Quincy, whose parents own the fancy resort they're staying at, Not only is Quincy easy on the eyes. but he has also gone through a bad breakup. And he needs a date to the Winter Ball that his parents are hosting. He and Tia decide to go together in order to make Quincy's ex jealous. But then the sparks start flying.

A cute (and very tame) rom-com. for teens.

Only for the Holidays is such a fun & festive, holiday YA book. I will definitely revisit this closer to the holidays.
