Emergency Contact
From New York Times bestselling author Lauren Layne--and her real-life husband and high school sweetheart, Anthony LeDonne--comes a new holiday rom-com that is sure to warm even the coldest heart.
Katherine, an ambitious New York City attorney, gets diagnosed with a concussion and must be monitored for forty-eight hours to make sure it doesn't get worse. Unfortunately, she forgot to update her emergency contact, so the person they call is her ex-husband, Tom. Unable to be left alone, Katherine reluctantly agrees to travel to Chicago with him for the holidays. But thanks to a blizzard, what should have been a quick plane ride turns into an antagonistic overnight misadventure that stirs up old feelings even as Tom prepares to propose to his girlfriend on Christmas Eve.
A delightful meet-cute between The Proposal and Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Emergency Contact is perfect for fans of Christina Lauren and Sophie Kinsella.

"Holiday romcom Emergency Contact delivers the humor and poignancy of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles in true enemies-to-lovers style. I cheered for this couple even as I kept laughing at the increasingly bizarre situations they had to deal with as they tried to get from NYC to Chicago on Christmas Eve, during a snowstorm. Hilarious and big-hearted and filled with holiday spirit."
