This is a sweet story of how Sue and Ben met and how the Riley family tradition of not being able to say no to a kiss under the mistletoe came about. It is really short and easy to read.

This was a sweet story of how the parents, Ben and Sue, first met and how the Riley family tradition of kissing under the mistletoe started.

Cute story

A really cute story about mum and dad, very well written just like the rest in the series, we have all the great characters from previous in this series, but its basically a story about Mistletoe rules and where it started, a cute little story to read on the bus to work

Back in time

Really enjoyed this short story that tells how Ben Nd Sue started. You can feel the love. You also get a little catchup on things with the rest of the family. Great addition to the series

Loved this sweet short story about Ben and Sue! Love how they tell it every year for the grandkids.

Mistletoe Rules by Stacey Joy Netzel is a fast, fun read. Sue and Ben's story is a great read for the holidays and is short enough you'll still have time to wrap gifts. Ms Netzel has delivered a well written book with lovable characters, a little drama and humor. I enjoyed Mistletoe Rules and look forward to reading more from Stacey Joy Netzel in the future. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.

I loved this book. I am currently reading the box set. I love all the books. It was nice to see the mention of Charlie from Redemption in the book. I missed the reference the first time I read the book. Stacey Joy Netzel is a wonderful author. Everything I have read from her I have loved!

Cute story but nothing really there. Would be better if there had been a little more to it. Enjoyed it for what was there.
