The 12 Christmases of You & Me by Jennifer Joyce- Rom com/time travel   
"    What if you could go back in time and fix the biggest mistake of your life?"
Maisie works as a therapist and has a daughter. She split from her husband who
is father (in biological sense only) to Annabel a while back. She is close to her
sister and parents and often thinks back to when they were at school and how
she lost the love of her life Jonas. She finds herself transported back to her
school days, each one being around the festive season. She works out that
this must be a dream but things do appear so very life -like even down to
bruises. Camera flashes and sleep appear to be the triggers to go forward
and back however she has no control over when this is or where she travels
to. Jonas is good friends with her sister but Maisie isn't sure if Jonas ever
knew her true feelings for him. This is so well written and reading it on the
hottest day of the year it didn’t feel out of place one bit. Yes there is a
Christmas theme but there is so much more to this book than that.There
is affirmation of life, a smile, one determined woman with a wonderful
take on life.  I liked Maisie and her down to earth approach
and how with an adult's eye saw things in the past that shouldn't have
been said and did her best to put them right. 
A tonic of a read that could be read at any time of year. Brilliant!

The 12 Christmases of You & Me
What if you could go back in time and fix the biggest mistake of your life? Two years ago, Maisie’s best friend walked out of her life and she hasn’t heard
from him since. When she wakes up in 1994, she naturally assumes she’s
dreaming. But when she finds herself in the past again the next night and
her actions in the dream alter her present-day life, she begins to wonder if
she’s somehow hopping back in time. And if she is time-travelling, can she
save her friendship with Jonas?
When Maisie is forced to relive Christmases of the past, will she face up
to her mistakes, or make them all over again?The 12 Christmases of
You & Me is a magical tale of friendship, first loves, and learning
to live in the present.
