Nick is sure spending the holiday with the strange old lady is going to be a disaster. But Nick is surprised when Beth Morgan turns out to be a gutsy petite beauty. While Beth sets roadblocks Nick isn't remiss using Bekka as a conduit to spend time together. He can see why Bekka was taken with her. Question is whether he is ready to pursue this lovely caring woman. For a successful man, he harbors doubts if Beth is even willing to be pursued. Being with Nick has brought out a flirty side of Beth but Nick doesn't believe in love and Beth won't accept less. Both seem determined to remain at arm's length. Nick is going to have to pull out all the Christmas charm he could muster is he is going to catch the beautiful widow.

Diane is unprepared for all that is unmasked. All these years she has truly believed she'd lost her family. Yet behind one of the masks she recognizes his eyes, that voice but how could it be. That is just the beginning. There is much more to be revealed. Only time can tell what Diane's future will unfold. Layers of carefully laid lies and secrets have kept Diane and Dom apart.

The only way to breach them would be a miracle -- a Christmas miracle.

In Snowbound With The Millionaire Georgia's plans to regroup during a quiet Christmas. Georgie met the wrong brother Toby first and realized there was no spark when she mistakenly kissed the other brother, Chance and rockets flew. Well slight exaggeration but the scenario of this story was Georgie looking for a respite from an aggressive man who wouldn't take no for an answer. Now Georgie is starting to feel frightened by Toby's unrelenting attempts to see her again. When the opportunity to spend some time alone appears Georgie takes advantage. She wants to retrieve items left behind at her parent's cottage but the weather intruded. The biggest surprise when she discovers herself sheltered from the storm with Chance. The serious chemistry between the two of them can not be denied and may be what is needed to create a little miracle.

MISTLETOE WISHES brings together three lovely seasonal stories about second chances at love and family. Each story is uniquely charming and heartwarming and reminds us that love can repair even the most damaged hearts. But even love sometimes needs a little help. Luckily it's the season of miracles combined with some really hot kisses to heat up even the coldest winter night.
