Ex Ever After

Turns Hallmark movie tropes on their heads for fans of Victoria Levine, Katherine Center and Laurie Gilmore

Phoebe quit her stressful city job and neglectful boyfriend, Elliot, to return to her small hometown, reconnected with her high school sweetheart, Mikey, now a Christmas tree farmer, and got her hallmark film “happily ever after.” But what happens after the film credits stop rolling?

Three years later, bored of endless dinners with the in-laws and worried about finances - who could have guessed the city paid better? - she takes a remote job with her old DC company. When flown to DC for onboarding, she’s unexpectedly paired with Elliot.

Torn between her life with Mikey and resurfacing feelings for Elliot and the city, Phoebe must decide if she’s truly a small-town girl or a city woman.

Combines the slow-burn and yearning from People we Meet on Vacation with the reinvention of beloved tropes from Any Trope But You.
