What a smashing bundle of mischief! Nineteen authors give
us contemporary romances set at our favourite time of year
in MISCHIEF UNDER THE MISTLETOE. An e-book proves to be the
ideal way to read this collection as each story has its own
link.
Kristin Miller gives us THE BAD BOY MEETS HIS MATCH. Cora
has had her fill of useless men and stomps off to a wintry
cabin by a lake for Christmas with girlfriends. But she
discovers that the handsome man chopping firewood in the
next cabin's yard is a former boyfriend. Alec is a big
noise in business now, and Cora, for all she denies caring,
even knows his latest lady's name from the papers. Alec
tells her that's just a business relationship, but then how
come that colleague is coming to stay? This is a deep,
atmospheric and wintry tale, just right to read by a fire.
COLLIDE AND BURN by Claudy Conn features a horse livery
barn, but the Long Island setting is less impressive than
the way young Charlene Wells bravely defuses a domestic
incident that's about to turn tragic. New owner of the
stables Charlie's parents ran as tenants, Wade Devon is
impressed, but damned if he's going to say so. Wade is,
sadly, quite controlling and using in his relationships.
Charlie doubts she could have any future with him, even
after agreeing to erotic nights. This one turns out to be a
suspense story.
Melanie James gives us a tale where illness strikes at this
busy time of year. Well, it's one way to find out who cares
about you. Some of the authors visit towns they have
created for a series, such as Mindy Klasky with a Harmony
Springs, Virginia novella, which brings a returned soldier
to town in time to shop locally for gifts. Stephanie Rowe
recounts what happens when two young people meet on a boat
headed to a Maine island for Christmas breaks, when both of
them actually need to learn about themselves before they
can find each other. I enjoyed her WRAPPED UP IN YOU which
is in a series called Mystic Island. There's a paranormal
story wrapped up in tinsel; there is a bunch of mistletoe
pinned to the rafter of a general store; I loved the rescue
and raising of two moose calves. Other tales are set in a
Washington office or hard-headed corporate New York.
With nineteen tales I can't do more than give a flavour of
the book, but each is distinct enough that I had definite
preferences of characters and styles. This is a smashing
way to sample an author before buying her full-length
works. Some of the stories contain a lot of strong
language, and most contain adult activity, so the whole
package is recommended for grown-ups who want to feel warm
this winter. MISCHIEF UNDER THE MISTLETOE has a lot of
excitement and more than a few happy endings.
