Today&#8217;s Preview is Christmas Ever After by Karen Schaler.  I am a big fan of the author&#8217;s  Christmas books, several of which have been made into movies for Netflix and Hallmark.  When I recently learned that she had written another Christmas-themed book,  I knew this one needed to be on the top of my &#8220;to be read&#8221; list of holiday books.<\/p>\n<p><b>The publisher notes<\/b>: <i>&#8220;From Karen Schaler, the writer of the Netflix phenomenon A Christmas Prince and Hallmark\u2019s Christmas Camp comes this new heartwarming holiday romance. Mamma Mia meets The Bachelorette in Christmas Ever After&#8230;<br \/>While promoting her next novel, a Christmas love story, author Riley Reynolds is caught off guard when she\u2019s asked during a live national television interview how she can write about romance when she still hasn\u2019t found \u201cthe one\u201d herself. Scrambling for an answer, she quickly answers that she has had great love in her past and that love inspired her novels.<\/p>\n<p>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\u2019s 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!<\/p>\n<p>Over the festive weekend, Riley\u2019s old boyfriends compete to win her heart, pulling out all the stops while planning the most romantic Christmas dates on the planet.
