[Cathy Geha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Although book three in the series this is the book that explains how Lottie ended up in Cheyenne, North Dakota with Harlan Erikson as her boyfriend. Her trusty tarot cards and premonitions are front and center as a local thief is being searched for. In addition to the mystery of who the thief is there are a few scenes with Harlan’s ex-girlfriend and a persistent boyfriend of Lottie’s that tracks her to Cheyenne. Christmas, mistletoe and magic are in the air with a cozy scene to wrap this story up with.

This book is short at fewer than 100 pages and easily read in a day. Having used tarot cards, it is fun to read about them as Lottie uses or sees them during this story. This is a clean story with a bit of punching and hitting but no graphic violence, profanity or promiscuity.

3.5 Stars

Mistletoe Medium was a quick, fun, and easy read. I enjoyed the quirky and likable characters, interesting storyline, and psychic aspect.

Much of the story seemed rushed to me, the attraction between Lottie and Harlan and the mystery, but that's understandable due to the short length of the story. Delisi presented the mystery itself in a very compelling way, by offering clues through Lottie's psychic visions. It really pulled me in and had me trying to decipher what they could mean.

This peek into Lottie's world definitely has me intrigued. I'm quite interested in reading more of this series to learn even more about these captivating characters.
