Mr. Mistletoe Indeed
It never ceases to amaze me how grown folks have problems communicating. Just say whatever it is you need, are feeling, what's wrong, etc. If the person doesn't understand, help them to. After years of running away, Kimberly finally went after her man, Deacon. Even then, she wasn't altogether truthful. However she finally came clean. Decon had been in love with Kimberly for years. She left him to go to medical school, thereby breaking is heart. When she returned home to her best friend Deacon, she'd asked him to stand up for her at her wedding. Little did he know he was in for a huge surprise. I enjoyed this story.

He wasn't buying it
Deacon Fairhope aka demi God Baldr, knew that Kimberly was hiding something. She'd already broke his heart years ago when she left for med school. He'd been in love with her since he was ten years old. He tried to move on but couldn't. Now she had the nerve to come home with a fiance. He was determined to break that up. Kimmie was his.
Kimberly always knew she loved her best friend Deacon Hiram Fairhope. But she had to leave as she was only a shell of herself when she lost her father. She had to heal her spirit and soul before She could have another chance with being with Deacon. His mistrust of her after two heart breaks was a bumpy road. They belonged together and they could conquer th e world as long as freedom had his Makita by his side.

Three Stars
I gave this book three stars, which is rare for me, because I was confused so much. The use of full names throughout the whole book was excessive. Then, the calling folks by their middle names did not make it any less confusing. There were too many characters with starring roles for the size of this book. I really loved the premise and if fleshed out, it would have been a higher rating. The characters were high schoolish. I am interested in the best friend and brother. I feel this book served as an introduction to what could become other books. All in all, the premise is really good. Hopefully, we can get a more fleshed out sequel to really get me invested.

Great Christmas love Story
Deacon and Kimberly, what a couple. This couple belonged together but they both had to go through some things before they could be together. I love Kimberly's idea of making him think she was marrying someone else when they wedding was really for them. This definitely could have gone wrong quickly but they made it work. I love the residents of Fairhope so far and I can't wait to hear some of the others stories.

Badr
When I started reading this I was wondering where this story was going. A god killed by mistletoe, reborn in the present with no memory of who he really was, until....I leave that two the reader to find out. This is a love story that literally starts at birth, that is of our h who our H loves dearly. Some of the characters seem to go by more than one name, including Charity, just one of her names. So I was confused at time who was who, but it was still a unique story.

Surprised Me
I am the type of reader that may not always read the synopsis first. Don't think I would have read this interesting take on "the gods." But I really enjoyed this "I am getting married and you just don't know it to you." I'm now hooked and need to read about Arden and Espen.

What did I just read????🤔🤔
I am very disappointed 😔. I didn’t know what was going on in this book. The entire story seems rushed, the storyline was dumb. There isn’t any cohesiveness to the plot, the chemistry between KIMBERLY & DEACON was Whack! I finished this novella feeling confused and like I aforementioned disappointed.

Loved it
Ok so I of course loved raising boom and finished it in one day but I must say I'm sad it ended so soon I hate that it was so short but still it had everything in it that all her other books 📚 had in it.

Mr and Mrs Mistletoe
That was a short, sweet read,and since I met Mamita and Deac through Aspen and Arden, it makes it even sweeter.
Deacon, you are awesome and I know that you will take good care of Kimberly and make beautiful demigod babies.

***SPOILERS BELOW ***
Love Deacon and Kimmie. Never bet on another woman's husband!!! C'mon Now. The only part of the book that gets me is the idea that you can 'earn' your man by faking a whole engagement to another man. Loved them nonetheless, they're a fun couple.

Quick fun read
Although this was short, it had the right amount of drama, humor, and romance. Even though this is a standalone book, I loved how the story incorporated characters and locations from previous stories.

My mom recommended this book o me and I loved it! Wasn’t expecting the god angle at all. I didn’t read the synopsis so I don’t know if it’s mentioned there. It was a delightful surprise. Great read!

Sexy read
She does it again. I love to hate all of her H and this one does not disappoint. Sexy and possessive, what more could you ask for.

Christmas Spirit
To love someone and knowing their is no other, being without them can be torture. I am happy they came together and everyone's spirit was happy.

This is a really great read. Had to slow down and savor it. Deacon and Kimberly have great chemistry, passion and this deep love for each other. I highly recommend this read and can't wait to read more from this author.

Cute lil story
This story was a pleasure to read. Kimmie has the nerve to plan a wedding for the man she left. Twice. He's so messed up over her he doesn't even realize it, though he sees her all the time and even helps. Their HEA was worth the waiting. Looking forward to more from this author.
