Merry Ex Mas: A magical speculative holiday second chance romance, the perfect cosy read for Christmas 2026

Which man from her past will make the perfect Christmas present? Which man from her past will make the perfect Christmas present? All Marygrace wants for Christmas is a boyfriend to impress her big, boisterous family. What she gets instead is a slip on the ice and a bump to the head – and suddenly, she in a time loop, reliving Christmas Eve with a different ex each time. There’s Flynn the finance bro. Dale the rising music star. Jamie the fitness influencer. Glamorous? Absolutely. Perfect? Not even close. But somehow, ex-best friend Robbie keeps showing up too. And between the carolling and cookie baking, Marygrace starts to wonder: has the love she's been looking for been there all along? ***Readers have been loving Merry Ex-Mas*** 'A cosy, humourous, cute little time loop Christmas story that gave the vibes of Ghosts of Girlfriends Past … would make a great movie' 'This was a fun one … I loved the Filipino celebrations and foods featured' 'I would definitely recommend adding this to your Christmas TBR' 'The family chaos felt real, the food sounded incredible, and Robbie had the patience of a man trapped in a holiday escape room' 'This was such a fun and easy holiday read!'
