For Putnam, Tara Singh Carlson preempted world rights to internationally bestselling Uzma Jalaluddin’s and New York Times bestselling and Reese’s Book Club pick author Marissa Stapley’s Three Holidays and a Wedding in a joint venture with Penguin Canada’s Deborah Sun de la Cruz. The romance, sold by Samantha Haywood at Transatlantic Literary Agency for Stapley and Ann Collette at Rees Literary Agency for Jalaluddin, follows the delightful chaos that ensues when Christmas, Eid, and Hannukah all fall at the same time, and two strangers who confide their personal problems to each other are snowbound in the small, quaint town of Snow Falls, realizing there is no place they would rather be for the holidays. The eccentric cast includes the women’s lifelong crushes, nosy family members, and the cast and crew of a holiday romance movie. Three Holidays and a Wedding is set for release in Fall 2023.
