time - Is acceleration relative in relativity?

Suppose a box A is moving relative to a Box B, then by time dilation equation if I take 1 sec passed for an observer in A then for an observer in B will be little longer. Now if I suppose that the box B is moving while A is stationary under the same condition, then by the time dilation equation time passed in B must be shorter than A. How is this issue resolved? In the twin paradox problem my book says that it's due to acceleration, but in my opinion acceleration is relative (please correct me if I'm wrong), but here it is not the case.
