The Twelve Days of Dash and Lily

The long-hoped-for sequel to perennial favourite Dash and Lily's Book of Dares. It's Christmas time in Manhattan and Lily's Christmas cheer is at an all-time low, so it's up to Dash and his friends to organise a great Manhattan adventure to help her find her Christmas groove.

Dash and Lily have now been going out for nearly a year - and it's been a really hard year. Lily's beloved grandfather had a heart attack and fell down some stairs. He survived, but his recovery has been slow. Lily insists that everything's fine. But Dash knows that her spirit is sagging. Her enthusiasm has been exhausted. And even with Christmastime, her favourite time, approaching, she doesn't really feel… anything.

Action must be taken. There are twelve days until Christmas. Twelve days for friends and family to take Manhattan by storm to help Lily recapture the magic of New York City in December. Twelve days to find Lily's cheer, and help her fall in love with life again. Twelve days left for Dash and Lily…?
