About this listen
Clark Griswold was onto something...at least with his annual holiday meltdown. And since the last three weeks of my life have been riddled with humbug—another breakup, a broken toe, an office promotion I deserved and didn’t get—I’m not at all in the mood to celebrate nor have the happ, happ, happiest Christmas EVER.
When Mom insisted that we all gather at my Grandparent’s ancient cabin for an old school family Christmas, I fully intended to get into the holiday spirit with the help of the three wise men, Johnnie Walker, Jack Daniels, and Jim Beam. But those boys did absolutely nothing to offset the shock or temper the sting of seeing my EX on our doorstep the first day of our holiday soiree.
Apparently, Santa missed the memo, and this elf is pissed.
Stuck for a week with the man who obliterated my heart nearly two decades ago, I did the only thing I could do and put on my game face, thankful for the home advantage.
I knew better than to drink that last cup of eggnog. I knew better than to get tongue tangled beneath the mistletoe with the only man to ever break my heart. I knew better than to sleep with Satan’s wingman on the eve of the Lord’s birthday.
I could blame the nog. I could blame the deceitful light blue eyes, thick, angelic hair, and panty evaporating smirk…but mostly, I blame Eli because he always knew exactly which of my buttons to push.
I foolishly thought a family Christmas filled with nostalgia was going to turn my inner Scrooge around, but this year’s festivities went up in flames. Leave it to the ghost of my Christmas past to be the one to light the match.
Fa la la la la, la FML.
The Plight Before Christmas is a full-length, second-chance Christmas-themed romance and that's most definitely on Santa's NAUGHTY LIST!

Melody Gallard may be the daughter of music royalty, but her world is far from glamorous. She spends her days restoring old books and avoiding the limelight (one awkward tabloid photo was enough, thanks). But when a producer offers her a lot of money to reunite her mother’s band on live tv, Mel begins to wonder if it’s time to rattle the cage, shake up her quiet life…and see him again. The only other person who could wrangle the rock and roll divas.

They say it happens when you least expect it. It did for me. It started the moment I saw the simple message pop up on my computer screen: Cameron’s Mac: Hi. And when I met the eyes of the gorgeous man messaging me from across the coffee shop, I never thought my reply would lead to the most intense, sexual, and passionate relationship of my life. We both agreed to check our bags at the door and put our future hopes and aspirations on the table. It worked. I fell in love with his no-holds-barred attitude, sexy smirk, and undeniably good heart...and for a while we forgot about our baggage.

Story
The first time I met Ian Kemp in the sparkling blue waters of St. Thomas, I was six years old, and we shared a summer beneath the stars. The second time I met Ian Kemp, he was a shell of the boy I once knew. Turbulent and infuriating, he refused my friendship at every turn. Like me, he was a casualty of life’s cruelty, but we were planets apart. We’d both sought refuge on the island, hoping to find our anchor. Instead, we found each other and managed to reclaim our stars...until we both got swept away.

Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

The average song is three and a half minutes long; those three and a half minutes could lead to a slow blink, a glimpse of the past, or catapult the soul into heart-shattering nostalgia. At the height of my career, I had the life I wanted, the life I’d always envisioned. I’d found my tempo, my rhythm. Then I received a phone call that left me off key. You see, my favorite songs had a way of playing simultaneously. I was in love with one man’s beats and another’s lyrics. But when it came to the soundtrack of a life, how could anyone choose a favorite song?

Triple Falls wasn’t at all what it seemed, nor were the men that swept me under their wing. But in order to keep them, I had to be in on their secrets. Secrets that cost us everything to keep. That’s the novelty of fiction versus reality. You can’t re-live your own love story, because by the time you’ve realized you’re living it, it’s over. At least that was the case for me and the men I trusted my foolish heart to. Looking back, I’m convinced I willed my story into existence, due to my illness, and all were punished.

I've got everything it takes to make it in Tinseltown: confidence, charisma, and a killer chin. Now all I need is a chance. But Los Angeles is full of hot young hunks, and talent might not be enough to separate me from the cookie-cutter crowd. So I devise a wild scheme to get noticed. Pretend I’m someone I'm not—good-bye Will O’Connell of Cincinnati and hello Liam O’Connell of Dublin. "Liam" and his talent with accents is enough to get my foot in the door, but I never anticipated meeting the woman who has me more worried about keeping my foot out of my mouth.

For the first time in my life, I'm living for myself - not for my parents and their ridiculous expectations. I gave up on my MBA, dropped out of the Ivy League, and moved to Portland to pursue my dream of becoming an artist. And what's the first thing I do? Get knocked up. For a tatted-up sex god, Braxton Henley seems way too eager to "be there for me". Is this guy serious? Maybe. He sure is patient. Because he won't back down until I admit what I know in my heart: that our one-night stand might've led me to the one.

Regret, she's a snarky little bitch. I've tried several times to regret the events that took place on June 5, 2008, but for the life of me, I can't. I'd never regret the pain, the suffering, or the heartache because they ultimately led me to the place I am in now. And I can't regret the place I am in now. What I still can't figure out is this: How is it possible that the single worst day of my life inadvertently became the very best day? Five years ago my life was irrevocably changed. Seventeen minutes was all it took to lose my best friend, to lose the love of my life.

I don't remember a time I didn't love Crenshaw Bennett. I tried to deny it, but my feelings grew deeper. I thought he could never love me the way I love him. I was wrong - outrageously, deliriously, and beautifully wrong. One innocent kiss changes my life forever. Suddenly, Shaw is mine. Loyal, devoted, and the most loving man on this Earth. Together, we create an explosion of fiery passion, devotion, and chemistry I never knew was possible. All of my dreams are within reach, but I should have known it was too good to be true.

Perfect holiday romance!

This book encompassed everything that I look for in a holiday romance. Kate gave us a real depiction of a family Christmas filled with utter chaos, humor, growth, understanding and love. The Collins family were so relatable and a total mess but what family isn’t when everyone gets together under one roof for the holidays?!?
I HIGHLY recommend listening to this because O.M.G. it definitely is one of my all-time favorites and will definitely be listened to every single year around the holidays because the narration is immaculate! Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell NEVER disappoint when narrating together!
The talent and range Joe has is utterly astounding. They way he is able to truly voice the character’s emotions, and how he can make you feel those same exact emotions along with them, is absolutely remarkable. I could not get over his voice for the absolutely adorable, quirky baby of the family, Peyton. Did he have me laughing…MEP! Did those scenes have my heart melting…MEP! Could I keep listening to the love and connection these characters formed over a short period of time…MEP!
We are also rewarded with a special guest appearance in Chapter 25 that will have you giddy and screaming with excitement to hear from him again! Be prepared to have your heart be swooned. I could not stop laughing during the entire scene where Eli was drunk. Joe really brought his A-game and left me in stitches and holding my stomach and wiping my eyes with that entire performance! Don’t even get me started on that entire Pledge scene!
Now everyone loves the broody, dirty talking, smexy character’s Joe plays, but honestly my favorite is emotional Joe. These are the moments where I literally sit and just listen to the character and stew in my feelings. My heart breaks, the tears begin to flow, and I don’t know what adulting means at that point. Chapter 39 left me in tears and pulled at my heartstrings. The realness and rawness of hearing of Eli’s past left me in shambles and took forever to break out of.
Maxine was the perfect person to play Whitney. She brought out her quick-witted, cynical, and oftentimes hilarious banter that kept me laughing not only with her interactions with Eli, but her siblings as well. Maxine’s ability to bounce between several female characters at once is impeccable. The listener is able to differentiate between who is speaking at which time without being confused or lost. I was stunningly surprised with her kid’s voice, since I have yet to be embraced with it from other audiobooks. She really gave the perfect interpretation of a whiny, self-centered, pre-pubescent teen full of angst and attitude to make you relate with the adults in their feelings of wanting to pull their hair out.
The scenes where Maxine had to portray the anger and hurt Whitney felt in those chapters from their past to the present made me connect with the character on a deep, emotional level. It gave me a better understanding of her resistance of letting Eli back in her life once more. Maxine did a phenomenal job with this performance and I can’t wait to hear more from her soon!

My favorite holiday read!
This book is so well written!
Kate Stewart, did a phenomenal job crafting this heartwarming tale of second chance romance.
Her words drew me in from the very start. Sometimes it takes a few chapters for me to get invested in a book.
The characters are so real, charming, and relatable. The story truly captivated me! The Christmas magic and family dynamic kept me listening long past my bedtime. I loved all the siblings love stories within the main story. The author took such care to build up each characters personality and add depth to their individual journey. The pull between Whitney and Eli was palpable. When Eli's truths unfolded, I was taken by surprise and endeared him to me even more. I love this story!!!
as for the narration...
As always Joe and Maxine did not disappoint! Their narration is always amazing. Their chemistry shines through and the fact that they love what they do, makes listening to them thoroughly enjoyable!
Love, love, love!!!
Kate, keep 'em coming. This is the first of your books I have listened to. If your other work is as wonderful as this book, you'll have a fan for life!

Heartfelt audio performance⭐️
Kate Stewart knows how to write an emotional family story with a feel good ending. Likable characters, but I could of done without the excessive children parts; those were boring, but understandably part of the story plot. The narrators made this book a five star listen.
