What if the ghosts of your past were your most trusted confidants? And what if the love you craved was the one you weren’t supposed to have? Maggie Holmes dives deep into these tangled questions in her latest novel, The Game—a story that’s as heartfelt as it is raw, as tender as it is turbulent.
This isn’t your typical small-town family drama. The Stevens family starts off living their picture-perfect life—until one fateful day changes everything. What follows is an emotional whirlwind as they piece themselves back together, one shaky step at a time. Holmes doesn’t just tell the story; she makes readers feel it, right down to their core.
Maria Stevens is about to turn sixteen, and it should be all glitz and glamour. A fancy party, a chance at her driver’s license, maybe even a shiny new car. But beneath the sparkly surface, Maria is carrying the weight of her family’s history—and a secret connection with her late brother, Peter, who has never really left her side.
And then there’s K.J., Maria’s cousin, whose attention makes her question everything she thought she knew about love. It’s messy, it’s awkward, and it’s so not what the family would approve of. But isn’t that what makes it impossible to resist? Holmes handles this taboo topic with surprising sensitivity, pulling readers into Maria’s world as she wrestles with her heart and her head.
At its core, The Game is about growing up—about discovering who you are and what you’re willing to fight for. It’s about the bonds that break and the ones that heal. It’s about making mistakes, owning them, and finding a way forward, even when the road ahead is anything but clear.
Maggie Holmes has crafted a story that’s as messy and unpredictable as life itself. The Game doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff, but it also knows how to find beauty in the chaos.
Want a book that’ll make you laugh, cry, and maybe scream into a pillow? The Game is out now—grab it, read it, and let it take you on a journey you won’t forget.
