Jayda's junior year started off bad when her boyfriend dumped her, and then, it became worse when her mom got laid off. With every week that her mom doesn't find a new job, things get tighter. Now, the holidays are approaching, and there is no money for presents. When she intercepts her little brother's letter to Santa, her heart breaks, knowing they can't get the dog he desperately wants. On a wing and a prayer, she writes her own letter to Santa, penning all of her holiday wishes that she knows can never come true, because, holiday magic just isn't real.

Connor's first Christmas without his mother is harder than he imagined. When a giant sack of letters to Santa shows up at his doorstep, he can't believe he forgot that she used to reply to all the Santa letters in their small town. He's about to throw them away, but then, a letter from a girl he has a crush on catches his eye. Jayda has sent a Christmas wish into the universe, and although Connor isn't technically Santa, he does the only thing he can do to honor his mother's memory. He writes back.

A sweet and clean Christmas romance that will make you smile!

Jayda's Christmas Wish
By: Amy Sparling

This is a short, sweet, clean contemporary YA romance. Jayda's not having a good year. First her boyfriend dumps her for another girl. Then her mom loses her job. Things are very tight and with Christmas nearing it looks very bleak. Jayda isn't so much concerned for herself, but she has a six year old brother that just won't understand no presents.

Then there's her classmate Connor, that just wants to skip the holiday. You can't blame him, as it will be the first one since his mom died. His dad threw himself into work and won't be leaving the offshore oil rig he is working on, to come home.

Circumstances collide and the two young people find themselves trying to salvage Christmas for others. Maybe they will find a bit of happiness and Christmas spirit for themselves.



The narration was well done. The characters were well portrayed. Christa Heiser was a good choice for this book.

This is a feel good book, one for when you’re feeling kinda Scroogey and need a boost.

The narrator’s style is good, but I wasn’t sure about the “age” of her voice in the sample. However, because the main characters are in high school, she worked for me.

I the received a free copy of this book.

Sweet. Good Christmas mood kickstart

Jayda's Christmas Wish was a great read by Amy Sparling. Jayda is in her junior year of high school and it has started off bad. Her boyfriend broke up with her and her mom lost her job. Things have become really tight and the holiday's are approaching with no presents for her younger brother. She takes her brothers letter to Santa where he only asks for a dog that they can't afford. She decides to write her own letter to Santa. Connor is experiencing his first Christmas without his mother and he is given a giant sack of letters to Santa. His mother used to reply to all the letter and even bought some presents in the letters. He was about to throw them all away when he comes across Jayda's letter, Jayda is a girl he has a crush on. I really enjoyed reading Jayda and Connor's story and can't wait to read more by Amy Sparling.
