Five Mistletoe Moments: Baes of Christmas

Rate this book
Mia Broussard has never believed in love at first kiss, until Dwight Albright. With so many relationship misses, she’s not sure she believes that the unique connection and explosive chemistry they share is the real thing. But Dwight promises to make this a Christmas she’ll never forget...if she'd only trust him.

After a devastating loss, Dwight has led an existence dominated by loneliness. When Mia enters his life, he knows he's been given a second chance to love. She's the woman he wants under the mistletoe this year and every year. And he intends to prove to her—one smoldering kiss at a time—that she’s meant to be his. Forever.

Mia and Dwight's meeting was a bit unconventional, but the chemistry was there, and love quickly followed. The lengths that Dwight went through to prove his love and intentions to Mia was so beautiful! Although both Dwight and Mia had endured great losses that changed them, they hoped that love would find its way into their hearts again. What a feel good read! 👍👍👍

This was a nice, cute instant love book. Dwight has not had feelings for anyone since his friend died before he was able to tell her how he felt. Once he met Mia he knew he wanted to be with her and didn't want to waste any time in telling her. Although she has her reservations, Mia knew that she was feeling Dwight as well and felt like it was too soon to be in love. On their trip away, Dwight was able to show her that he was all the man she needed and she was the only woman he wanted. It was nice that they had their friends and family on board as well. I really enjoyed this book.

Let’s Set the Mood Right Quick:

Baes of Christmas: Five Mistletoe Moments by Sheryl Lister

Drink: Christmas Margarita

Music: Underneath the Mistletoe by Sis, Make You Feel My Love by Adele

Mia Broussard: If, “nonbeliever,” was a person it would be Mia. Her past made it hard for her to believe in the magic of love. She had to learn the right one will do whatever it takes to make you feel the love and silence the negative voices in her head.

Dwight Albright: If, “a man who treasure’s his gift,” was a person it would be Dwight. He learned the hard way how short life can be so when he found who he was looking for he made sure his gift knew how special and loved she was.

Dwight has been grieving the loss of his friend for years. He never got to tell her how he felt. Mia has not trusted being in love since losing her parents, until she meets Dwight. In one month, they had a romance for the ages and fell in love. I was so excited to see that this book was about Dwight. Mia and Dwight were so cute together and I couldn't get enough of them. Their love story was fast, but it was beautiful and true!!!

Love has no set time....

Ms. Lister this was a cute, holiday insta-love story. Dwight heart needed healing and Mia was just the woman to do it. Dwight created a plan to secure Mia's loving heart. His plan worked. This book conveyed that persistence and patience pays off. I enjoyed the book, the only part I did not care for was when Mama Black wasn't in attendance at the end. It would have made Mia's life a complete circle if she was there.

All of the books I have read in this series thus far, has critical thinking men. All of them had plans to win over the woman of interest. I love how each author represents these men in their book. I strongly encourage this series, it will get you in the holiday mood. It displays powerful business, charitable minded men that know what and who they need in their lives.

Never too much romance

Mia fell in love with Dwight in what seemed like over night. They did not live in the same state and hadn't spent much time together, but the time they spent together was magical. Their connection was unmatched. Still she was hesitant, cautious even to share her feelings with him.

Dwight was head over heels in love with Mia. He was finally ready to move beyond his past and he was determined to do it with Mia. With the help of a lot of mistletoe he had plans to make her feel how much he wanted to be with her.

This was a sweet story and I loved Dwight's family! The way they welcomed and embraced Mia was everything. The trust they had in their son was admirable. The fact that they were genuinely happy and encouraged there love was....wholesome. This book gave me feel romance vibes and I loved every minute of it.

Perfect love story

I loved this book! I guess the saying love at first sight really exists. Mia and Dwight met accidentally on purpose lol. While clumsily spilling a drink in his lap, they realized they had an instant connection. Dwight had been afraid to love after losing his last love before having the chance to tell her how he felt. Feeling this connection to Mia he decided he couldn't take a chance on losing out on love for a second time. After winning a getaway the week of Christmas Dwight surprised Mia when he won the bid for the trip. She was shocked when she realized Dwight was who she would be spending the next 5 days with. Their time together proved they wasn't ready for their time to end. Let's just say that trip turned into their happily ever after.

Broken Hearts Deserve A Doug Second Chance Romance 🔥🔥

Mrs. Lister started the year with one twin who found love and seized on it for New Years and she ended the year with the other twin finding someone to heal his broken heart with unexpected love for Christmas!!

I absolutely loved Dwight and Mia! This was such a wonderful story. It’s that old adage, when the heart knows what it knows! How do you dispute that!! I will never look at mistletoe now without thinking of Mia and Dwight!!

This is another excellent book and this series just keeps getting better and better!! If you haven’t read this yet, you are definitely missing out!! Kudos, Sheryl!! 💜

When you know you know

Go on a journey of love ❤️ where time ⏲️ is not the determing fact. Where two parties allow their hearts 💕 to come together and cease the opportunity. Dwight being exactly what Mia desired as to giving souls allowed for nature to take its course. Having both having experienced loss they understood how precious it was to capitalize on their feelings. Go on the ride as you'll smile 😃 and root for a pure love that was worth the risk.

Accidental Second Chance Love
“A Second Chance At Love” is one of my most favorite tropes. Sheryl Lister does an excellent job in this relatable and lovely story. Additionally, this tale was such an enjoyable read. Her depiction of Dwight’s knowing and showing how a woman should be treated makes me smile. I love that it only takes a few hours to complete reading this book. Mrs. Lister has done it again, she does not disappoint in this one, either.

Five Mistletoe Moments

This was a love story about Mia Broussard and Dwight Alright. They met as the result of a charity auction bid he won. The winning trip was for five days at a tropical resort. Even though they met previously when she spilled a drink on Dwight at a bar, from the first kiss there was instant attraction. As the trip ended they were headed towards happily ever after.

When you know, what you know, you just know. ❤️❤️

Dwight didn’t need along length of time to decide if Mia was the women he wanted to spend his life with, and he was bound and determined to prove to her just how much she really meant to him. This was a beautiful love story that shows that when you are truly in love ,you know and nothing can change that

Finding love in the strangest place.

This was nice follow up to Lister’s New Year Bae solutions story. I like how to lonely hearts recognized each other and found a love neither expected but both needed. I definitely loved the secondary characters hopefully we can a story on Alana and her brother.

Great follow up

Having read Five Midnight Moments about a year ago, it was great to read this related story. Twins Dwayne and Dwight both deserved their HEA and it was wonderful that Mia fell into Dwight’s lap at just the right moment. Dwayne got his true love at New Years and Dwight got his at Christmas

Love Can Heal A Broken Heart

This was a nice heartfelt story about healing and opening your heart to love again. Dwight and Mia clinked from the first time they met and their love blossomed quickly. Add a little holiday spice and you have a good story.

Five Mistletoe Moments

So far Mistletoe Moments is the best. Mia and Dwight were made for each other. The best scene was when Dwight tossed Jermaim into the pool. The Albright and Black families will have a super Christmas next year.
