"The Matzah Ball had me laughing out loud...an all-around terrific read."âDebbie Macomber, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Oy! to the world
Rachel Rubenstein-Goldblatt is a nice Jewish girl with a shameful secret: she loves Christmas. For a decade sheâs hidden her career as a Christmas romance novelist from her family. Her talent has made her a bestseller even as her chronic illness has always kept the kind of love she writes about out of reach.
But when her diversity-conscious publisher insists she write a Hanukkah romance, her well of inspiration suddenly runs dry. Hanukkahâs not magical. Itâs not merry. Itâs not Christmas. Desperate not to lose her contract, Rachelâs determined to find her muse at the Matzah Ball, a Jewish music celebration on the last night of Hanukkah, even if it means working with her summer camp archenemyâJacob Greenberg.
Though Rachel and Jacob havenât seen each other since they were kids, their grudge still glows brighter than a menorah. But as they spend more time together, Rachel finds herself drawn to Hanukkahâand Jacobâin a way she never expected. Maybe this holiday of lights will be the spark she needed to set her heart ablaze.Â
"A luminous celebration of all types of love, threaded with the message that everyone is worthy of it.ââRachel Lynn Solomon, author of The Ex Talk
