• Publisher: Hawktale Publishing (September 29, 2020)

From Karen Schaler, the writer of the Netflix phenomenon A Christmas Prince and Hallmark’s Christmas Camp comes this new heartwarming holiday romance. Mamma Mia meets The Bachelorette in Christmas Ever After…

While promoting her next novel, a Christmas love story, author Riley Reynolds is caught off guard when she’s asked during a live national television interview how she can write about romance when she still hasn’t found “the one” herself. Scrambling for an answer, she quickly answers that she has had great love in her past and that love inspired her novels. Little does she know that this one offhanded remark will turn her world upside down.

Three of her ex-boyfriends see the interview, and each, believing she’s talking about him, shows up for her Christmas Camp book event at the Christmas Lake Lodge, determined to rewrite his happily-ever-after with her! Over the festive weekend, Riley’s old boyfriends compete to win her heart, pulling out all the stops while planning the most romantic Christmas dates on the planet. Despite herself, Riley starts falling for each guy- again-but for different reasons. As Riley revisits each relationship and discovers more about herself, she embraces the magic of Christmas and finally finds true love and her own Christmas ever after…

Bonus Content: Christmas Ever After includes delicious original Christmas recipes and fun holiday crafts and activities.

My Thoughts:

Christmas Ever After follows romance writer Riley who is given the task of writing a Christmas love story. This wouldn’t be a problem except for the fact that Riley hasn’t had romance or Christmas in her life for years.

Though Riley is up for the challenge, she doesn’t yet realize just how challenging it will be. To add to the drama, when Riley misspeaks on national television, her love life takes a very confusing turn. But, as Riley comes face to face with her unresolved feelings about her past relationships and Christmas, she realizes that love is what’s missing from both her books and her life.

Christmas Ever After is a cute and heartwarming story about rediscovering your Christmas spirit and opening yourself up to love. It’s a story of hope, faith, and believing that there’s still magic in the world, especially during the Christmas season.

Christmas Ever After is the uplifting feel-good story that the world needs right now. This book drew me in from the beginning and kept me interested all the way through. If you’re like me and you’re a sucker for Hallmark movies and Christmas romances, you should give Christmas Ever After a read. And as you’re experiencing Christmas from here on out, remember to “Keep your heart open because anything is possible at Christmas.”
