After a long absence, 18-year-old Jasper is finally heading home for the holidays – and she’s keeping secrets.

Arthur, a budding filmmaker, is turning the town of Lake Pristine into a small town story worthy of the big screen. His plans are disrupted by the arrival of the town’s golden girl – the antagonist of his school days; a girl he’s never forgotten.

Jasper Montgomery is back in Lake Pristine for one reason: to say goodbye. But before long small-town tensions start to rise, and a certain brooding film buff starts to look like a very big reason to stay . . .

The perfect story to get lost in, Some Like it Cold centres Jasper as an autistic heroine in a big-hearted small-town romance that will melt your heart, from the bestselling author of A Kind of Spark.

Publisher Review

A clever, poignant and healing love story . . . Some Like It Cold is a heartfelt romance that is sweeping in its scope and tender in its emotional depth. McNicoll has crafted a powerful ode to love in all its forms: of community, of home and of ourselves – as well as the genre of romance itself. — Bea Fitzgerald, author of Girl, Goddess, Queen As much an ode to the history of the romance genre as a classic yet modern love story in its own right. Achingly honest and heartfelt, this is McNicoll at her best. It is quite literally my favourite romance novel of all time. — Lizzie Huxley-Jones, author of Make You Mine this Christmas McNicoll delivers a breathtaking story of love and joy that will keep the reader hooked until the very last page. It was such a pleasure being immersed in Jasper’s world, as she navigated family dynamics, friendships, and identity issues in Lake Pristine. — Anika Hussain, author of This Is How You Fall In Love A sweet will-they-won’t-they rom-com set in a small town, dealing with autism, grief, love and being comfortable in your own skin. This is a cosy, heartwarming wintery romance. — Abiola Bello, author of Only for the Holidays I utterly adored this book! Some Like it Cold is a warm, wonderful winter romance to cosy up with – brilliant characters, sizzling chemistry, and so full of heart, Elle has written a truly gorgeous book that’s a must-read this winter. — Beth Reekles, author of The Kissing Booth
