JUST ONE MORE KISS

There's no place like home for the holidays. And the Lucky Harbor Bed & Breakfast is bursting with festive lights and good cheer. But for Mia, Christmas is turning out to be anything other than merry and bright. Her recent break-up with her boyfriend Nick has made her return bittersweet. But then a surprise arrives, when Nick follows her to town bearing gifts-and asking for forgiveness.

Nick grew up without a family of his own so he's overwhelmed by the love that Mia receives from all her relatives, gathered together to celebrate the season. Under their watchful eyes, Nick finds earning back her trust the hardest thing he's ever had to do. If he succeeds, he will receive the greatest gift of all, Mia's love for a lifetime.

Book Review

Jill Shalvis is my go-to author for a sweet romance filled with addictive characters, heart-warming plot, and a dash of sexy sprinkled in for good measure.

Under the Mistletoe is a novella that takes place during the holidays and is the story of Mia, Ford and Tara's daughter, who comes home during the Christmas holidays for Chloe and Sawyer's wedding. 

She has had a somewhat serious relationship with the handsome, yet commitment-phobe Nick. Their relationship is at the cusp where it can either move forward or dissolve into nothing but a fond memory. 

Mia wants the entire package--family, love, and someone to choose her. But when Nick fails to make that commitment, she flies back home to Lucky Harbor, alone. 

Can Nick convince her that he is what she needs or will Mia turn him away, stating too little, too late? 

Under the Mistletoe is a sweet, fast read to put you in the holiday spirit and definitely in the mood for love.
