Charter airplane pilot Sophie Madigan is frustrated with
her life in the South Seas. Her mother is gone, her
father needs her, and she has no prospects for a life of
her own. Her father won't consent to the eye surgery he
needs and she's overwhelmed with trying to hold on to his
failing business.
When Peter "Trey" Shelton hires Sophie to fly her over a
remote area and they are forced to do an emergency
landing, the two find themselves stranded on a desert
island—and unbelievably attracted to one another—on
Christmas Eve. Should they live out their own version of
Gilligan's Island, and if they do—including acting on
their sexual attraction—what happens when they are rescued?
I began reading, expecting this story to be hokey. I
mean, a rich sexy guy stranded on a remote island with a
beautiful woman? It's been done.
But Kate Hoffman wove a tender romance about two people,
both frustrated with their lives who, unbeknownst to
either of them, each hold the keys to what the other
needs. They both are in search of their life's purpose,
and in a fateful 24 hours, discover everything they've
ever wanted in each other. Rather than being clichéd, WHO
NEEDS MISTLETOE? is touching, funny, and a fresh spin on
an old idea.
Pilot Sophie Madigan practically drools when her last-
minute client walks in on Christmas Eve. Wealthy Trey
Shelton III has bedroom eyes, a wicked grin and a body to
die for! Sophie can't think of any Christmas gift she'd
enjoy more…until they're forced to make a crash landing.
Finding himself on a deserted Pacific island isn't exactly
the Christmas Eve Trey had in mind. At least, until he and
Sophie leave their inhibitions—and their clothes!—behind.
It should have been nothing more than a holiday fling—
island-style. Too bad nobody told either of them….
