About this listen
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.

I love the story and the other two prior to this from the same author but the narrator singing in my ear no thank you. I’m a big Christmas movie book lover but certain narrators can ruin a story.

Sweet Clean FUN contemporary romance
"Christmas Ever After" by Karen Schaler (Author), Katie Schorr (Narrator),
I loved this unabridged audiobook story. If things in Riley's life went smoothly—there would not have been much to write about. The bumps in the road truly can make life interesting. And when they happen to someone else, those bumps can be quite funny. I am very glad this audiobook is a member of my library. A Worthy Read. Happy Reading ! !

incredulous drinking game
First of all the author used the word "incredulous" way to many time in this story.
The narration was great but the story was super predictable and one dimensional. it was just O.K. for me.

Beautiful writing, very festive but story lacked for me
This is def a very Christmas oriented book unlike some that claim to be about Christmas and are barely festive at all. Christmas remains prominent throughout and the writing is beautiful. The narrator has a very pretty, enjoyable voice but I did not feel she differentiated the characters enough. The main character was hard for me to relate to at first bc I love Christmas but I did enjoy her evolution.
I liked that this book was told in third person perspective but I thought it was a strange choice to give Luke one or two perspectives and then nothing more. Seems like it should have been all or nothing to me. I was very hooked in the beginning bc I am an aspiring writer myself and I love Christmas. I am also a hopeless romantic so I was excited to see how the story transpired after Riley’s disastrous interview.
(Spoilers) The set up is exciting but sadly, the old bfs do not show up until more than halfway through the book and I felt like the ending was much ado about nothing. She goes on one date with each of them and despite her seeming chemistry and past with all of them somehow falls in love with Luke whom she barely spends any time with. What’s worse is that the three guys all vying for her affection are let down gently in ONE monologue and somehow take it very well, no hard feelings despite their grand gestures of coming all this way to win her back. This was very surprising and unrealistic to me.
I personally would have focused more time on Luke and Riley’s relationship and less space on minor characters like Mike, Kayley, Paul etc. And the buildup to the christmas camp was so exciting but it felt like that was barely delved into. I really would have liked more scenes with Riley and Luke. I personally felt like I knew some of her exes better than I knew him.
Despite my criticisms, the descriptions are beautiful and the writing is very imaginative. I def felt in the holiday spirit throughout and I enjoyed watching Riley embrace Christmas once again despite her sad past. I would def recommend this book to any fans of this author, Christmas or romance 🎄♥️❄️

So boring!
Ugh, what was this book even about? The boyfriends didn’t even come in until at least halfway through it. The chemistry between Riley and Luke was barely hinted at, and the fact that they’re making plans for the rest of their lives by the end (after knowing each other for like two weeks) is ridiculous and honestly kind of scary. Also, if I heard the words “Miss Christmas” again, I was going to vomit. The only parts of this book I liked with the narration and Comet, the dog. Thank god I listened to this while I was driving, cooking, and otherwise occupied with another task; otherwise the time I spent listening to this would have been completely wasted.
