Publisher's summary

The instant New York Times best seller

One Christmas wish, two brothers, and a lifetime of hope are on the line for hapless Maelyn Jones in In a Holidaze, the quintessential holiday romantic novel by Christina Lauren, the New York Times best-selling author of The Unhoneymooners.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year...but not for Maelyn Jones. She’s living with her parents, hates her going-nowhere job, and has just made a romantic error of epic proportions.

But perhaps worst of all, this is the last Christmas Mae will be at her favorite place in the world - the snowy Utah cabin where she and her family have spent every holiday since she was born, along with two other beloved families. Mentally melting down as she drives away from the cabin for the final time, Mae throws out what she thinks is a simple plea to the universe: Please. Show me what will make me happy.

The next thing she knows, tires screech and metal collides, everything goes black. But when Mae gasps awake...she’s on an airplane bound for Utah, where she begins the same holiday all over again. With one hilarious disaster after another sending her back to the plane, Mae must figure out how to break free of the strange time loop - and finally get her true love under the mistletoe.

Jam-packed with yuletide cheer, an unforgettable cast of characters, and Christina Lauren’s trademark “downright hilarious” (Helen Hoang, author of The Bride Test) hijinks, this swoon-worthy romantic listen will make you believe in the power of wishes and the magic of the holidays.

Wonderful holiday read!

This book made me cry—a lot. A perfect read for this holiday season, especially if you’re missing your family because of the pandemic.

Fun holiday read!

What a cute and fun holiday read! Honestly, this is out of my typical reading genre so I probably wouldn't have picked it up if my book club hadn't picked it, but I'm so glad I read it! Thoroughly enjoyed, and at times had anxiety for May [but only the best kind].

Very cute

This was a sweet holiday read. Like a feel good movie on paper and the narrator did a great job.

Loved it!

Super cute. Funny. Great narration. Different than the other cookie cutter Christmas Romance books I’ve listened too before. Highly recommend.

I LOVED THIS BOOK

What a fun adventure! I was really skeptical about this book at first, i’m not usually someone who likes rom coms, let along hallmark movies. But wow! This book blew me away. It serves as a cautionary tale to change your destiny while you can-and to not wait until it’s too late. It also shows you how change, while scary, is usually a good thing. When Mae gets trapped in a time loop, it represents how you can get stuck in one place if you refuse to take the leap and make a change in your life. Embrace the unknown! Embrace uncertainty! Break tradition!
