I cannot tell you how many books I have read and reviewed by this awesome writing duo. I was enamored from the beginning with their Bastard series.
Sometimes I have to wonder if they are ever going to lose their touch and then I read another one that just gives me all the feels and I just say “nope, they still got it”!
Here is the newest standalone coming up for the holiday season. Just love this one. Read on for my full review.

About:
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.
In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren Review
Have you ever crushed so hard on a guy that it lasted for years? Never told a soul, but suffered in silence?
This story reminds me of my teenage and young adult years so much! With a Hallmark movie feel to it, this book is a wild and wacky ride back to the future, or is it the past?
The setting is awesome. The descriptions are just as crisp and clean as the new-fallen snow. It definitely made me long for the holidays!
I simply fell for the delicate balance our main characters had. Tentative, yearning, and just so perfect. Notice, I am not naming who HE is… I want it to be a surprise for you. But oh, what a surprisingly sexy and heart-filled story!
The authors have such a perfect formula for their writing. I am forever thankful for their amazing talent to tell a story that sucks me in so deep. Tears and smiles, emotions all over the place, I ended with the most amazing “sigh” for the love of it all.
Contemporary Romance? In a Holidaze is so much more than that! The authors are a national treasure and this book is a perfect reason why.
5 STARS!

Hi! I’m Chris! Just a Midlife Wife sharing about life’s journey; screaming and kicking through it while supposedly aging gracefully…
