Christmas Ever After is a quick Holiday short story and entertaining addition to the Kismet Bay series. The characters are likable and the story is filled with drama, angst, heartbreak, love and a good ending.

I’ve read several books written by Dawn Brower; she has done an excellent job at writing a good short story; I will definitely be reading more of her books.
The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.
I loved the characters.

This was fun to read.
There are twist and turns and being a small town there is a bit of drama with it as well.
The book is well written and I can’t wait to read more from this author.

Another Christmas in Kismet Bay and another Cocoa Crawl. All of her family are happily matched, only Ivy seems left out. She had her heart broken when Gabriel left her to become a football star. A secret she had not shared with anyone was that she had been pregnant and lost the baby, going through all of it all on her own. Now Gabriel is back.
A typical Kismet Bay short story. With the background story their quick start into the relationship makes sense and is believable. A nice short story for a second chance.

This was another entertaining addition to this series of quick reads. The story line is engaging and I liked the characters. Heartbreak, angst, deep emotions, regrets and enduring love take centerstage in this second chance story. As much as I enjoyed this read, I really, really wish it had been longer. In my opinion this couple and their story truly deserved to be further developed and more deeply explored.
This story was so sweet. I really liked Ivy and it made me happy when she and Gabriel got together again, i ended this book with a smile on my face. They made a cute couple 🙂

This was oh, so cute. It was a short read, but perfect for the holidays. I loved every page. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book in exchange for a free copy.
This story was really cute and I enjoyed it a lot! I know all of the Kismet Bay books are quite short but I always wish that we could stay and visit with all of these couples a while longer and find out more about their happy-ever-afters! I would love to see these written as long novellas or even expanded to full-length books. Mmm? Maybe, pretty please, Ms. Brower??

A very short novella. The story is only about 30% of the material downloaded. I would’ve liked the book to be longer and give more depth. The first book I’ve read of the series. With some of the previous books mentioned, it makes me want to go back and read other characters’ stories.

Gabriel broke Ivy’s heart when they younger. He had left her for his football career. She had a secret that she kept from him and it tore her up. She still loved him and thought about him everyday.
Gabriel came back to town after getting hurt in a game.He decided he would make things right with Ivy. He was so scared of her rejecting him that he got drunk. He would take his chances and hope for the best.
