YA
It's been a year since teens Dash and Lily fell in love (Dash & Lily's Book of Dares). Now it's Christmastime; Grandpa's heart attack has put Lily in a bah-humbug mood, so it's up to Dash to provide holiday cheer. This sequel offers lighthearted moments, but the stakes are higher now, as Lily contemplates mortality, change, and what it means to love and be loved.
