Alyssa Drake
Genre:
Contemporary Romance
When
a chance meeting under the mistletoe ignites a hidden attraction,
Tess is forced to choose between fighting her desire or surrendering
to love.
Christmas
in the snow sounded like a brilliant idea when Kaitlyn pitched the
idea of spending their annual sister holiday at a working ranch.
However, mid-flight, Tess discovers Kaitlyn’s underlying motive is
to spend the next seven days ogling the male owners of Dove Ranch.
Stuck
in the snow with no electricity and a cowboy-crazy sister, Tess finds
solace with the eldest brother, Weston, who deplores the suggestive
misdirection of the ranch’s new advertising scheme. Agreeing to
buffer Weston from the advances of the ranch’s eager guests, Tess
finds herself falling for the man she offered to protect.
However,
when Weston makes the ultimate sacrifice, Tess must decide if she’s
willing to risk her heart on a cowboy.
The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . MISTLETOE HOPES (Kisses Under the Mistletoe, #1) . . . First in this holiday series by various authors and a author new to me. I did enjoy the story. I found the angle delightful. I found it fit in with the holiday season just nicely. There were good characters and even the ones you did not want to like had a drawing quality as it pertained to the story. The fact that Tess was the older caring sister got her pulled in to many a situations. This year it gave a her a lot more than she would have bargained would have happened.
Alyssa Drake introduced us to the holidays with her new characters and the life of cowboys in the winter. I loved meeting Weston and his family and Tess with her sister were just a hoot. There was laughs with a bit of drama. There handsy guest. Sexy cowboys. Trouble making ex. A crack, a fall, a fire, and chemistry.
Mistletoe Hopes was a nice afternoon read. It took you out of your day and gave you something different to focus on for a few hours.
