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!

Second Chance
I loved this Second chance, christmas story. The performances from Maxine Mitchell and Joe Arden. These artists work well together at bringing stories to life. With the array of different side characters including children they never disappoint me

4 star listen
As usual big fan of Kate’s work
I was expecting a little more humour, I wouldn’t actually say this is that funny but still a great story and I LOVED the Sean Cameo I love Sean.
4 star listen
Narration was fabulous
Done in duet narration really really well. Great listen just before Xmas.
Great work Kate

Amazing Story and Performance
I was giggling all the way through this second chance love story and unexpected trip to Triple Falls.
Eli had such an effect on me, his story was so sad and empowing.
Whitney and her family were bliss. I adored them all.

My favourite Christmas book of all time
The feels are real with this one folks. Kate Stewart is the puppet master when it comes to tugging your heart strings. It's funny, beautiful, heartbreaking, and a love story that will forever be engraved into my heart. This will be a new Christmas tradition, reading this book.
both audio presenters are my favourite of all time , I love their work together and love how they do the dual POV with each speaking their own role throughout the book. The happy feels are forever

Narration was outstanding
Joe Arden could read the phone book and I would love it. The duet style is how a book should be read. The story was funny, moving and awesome
