Summary
'Pure, irresistible magic from start to finish' Emily Henry, New York Times bestselling author of Beach Read

Love Actually meets Groundhog Day in this magical holiday romance from the New York Times bestselling 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 favourite place in the world - the snowy cabin where she and her family have spent every holiday since she was born. Mentally melting down as she drives away 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, everything goes black . . . When Mae gasps awake, she's back on an airplane, beginning 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 hilarious hijinks, this swoon-worthy romantic read will make you believe in the power of wishes and the magic of the holidays.

Critic reviews

Everything I've ever wanted in a wintry love story. As hilarious as it is sweet, and sexy as it is tender, this story is pure, irresistible magic from start to finish. I couldn't possibly love this book any more - my favourite Christina Lauren novel yet!
The perfect fresh-take on finding your joy and falling in love. One page in and you want to put up your tree at all times of the year, sip hot cocoa, and dive into a marvellous cast of characters
An absolutely dazzling holiday romance: clever and cozy and deliciously sexy, with a cast of characters and a spirit-of-the-season lesson you won't soon forget
Christina Lauren excels at delivering dizzying, head-over-heels romance, but In a Holidaze is in the upper tier of their prodigious output. It wraps its reader in its cozy, jolly embrace like a beloved holiday sweater
This book is funny, full of holiday cheer, and is about second, third, and even fourth chances
A fantastical twist on holiday cheer in this hilarious and heart-warming rom-com . . . a perfect Christmas treat
Take one lovably flawed heroine, add a doting boy-next-door hero, and sprinkle in a cozy family holiday, and you have the recipe for a delicious time-looping romantic comedy from best-selling duo Lauren
Lauren's first holiday romance is a feel-good from the get-go... The story and characters have a cozy, old-fashioned vibe, and the love scenes are warm... In a Holidaze is an engaging and entertaining treat, with no sharp edges and plenty of seasonal sparkle
A classic plot plus Lauren's trademark snark and steam add up to a winning rom-com full of heart and holiday cheer

Enjoyed this one, could of done with a little more explaining about parts of the story but still an enjoyable easy listen with a christmasy feel

Cute christmasy listen

Lovely story. Truly a great Christmas read.
Cute family dynamic and the whole book is based around Christmas.

Story was good and the performance was great. There was a technical issue however, the volume randomly dropped a lot and then went louder again. I played it on different devices and with different speakers so it's not an issue on my end. Not a major problem but it's something to be aware of.

A great Christmassy story

Loved that it was set at Christmas, loved the fact that the characters had known themselves for most of their lives. Not entirely sure the ‘Groundhog Day’ twist added anything to the story but it certainly didn’t detract from it. Loved the story period!

Perfect festive reading fare!

Nice little Christmas story to pass the time, not my favourite Christina Lauren Novel. Not something you can reread though.

Enjoyable
