Genre: Holiday
Romance, Christmas
Dr. Noah Lennox has three Christmas rules—avoid his hometown, avoid being mistaken for his internet-famous twin, and definitely avoid his smug cousin, Stephen. But when his beloved grandfather announces he’s retiring and leaving the family’s beloved sleigh-ride horse farm to either Noah or Stephen, Noah finds himself snowed in back home in Evergreen Falls and determined to fight for the place that means everything to him. The problem is, the town doesn’t exactly welcome its resident Scrooge with open arms.
Eloise Langston, a sunny Tourism Bureau hopeful, needs a win to land her dream job—and health insurance. Her Hail Mary plan? Turn Noah into Mr. Christmas to help the town’s Mr. Holiday Pageant draw record crowds. Transforming a camera-shy cowboy vet into a small-town sweetheart isn’t exactly in her job description—but neither is falling for him.
As sleigh bells ring and sparks fly, Noah and Eloise find themselves tangled in twinkle lights, fake pageants, and one very real attraction. But with the farm’s future at stake, Stephen's scheming, and Eloise’s own career on the line, there’s a blizzard of reasons to put their growing feelings on ice. Then again, if you can’t fight for love at the most wonderful time of the year, you don’t deserve the kiss waiting under the mistletoe.
My Thoughts: Lauren
Blakely wrote a cozy Christmas romance set in a small town full of Christmas
spirit. I love the town’s residents and how they spread their cheer without
holding back. The Mr. Holiday contest involved the entire town but featured
just a few men, who were all wanting the title for different reasons.
Noah entered to prove to his grandfather that he is the right person to leave
the family business to. Little did he know how much the contest would change
his outlook and improve his life. With Eloise’s help he has a real shot at
winning and getting the family business.
Mistletoe All the Way is a grumpy/sunshine Christmas romance. There is a
mystery to solve, some twists and turns that surprised me…especially the
ending. I enjoyed this book, even reading it while the temperatures were in the
80’s in my town. There is never a wrong time to read a Christmas book.
Thank you to the author for a copy of the book via NetGalley in exchange for my
honest review.
