About the Book

Mistletoe Meadows is built around the magic of Christmas. As jingling sleighs cart rosy-cheeked lovers around the Mistletoe Mile, Charlene's holiday dream is more complicated than photo-edited perfection. She proposes a compassion ministry initiative called the Gingerbread House but struggles to convince the town that their need for a homeless shelter is real.

Famous for his made for TV holiday movies, Jonas longs for a happily-ever-after that isn't as neat and tidy as his scripted films. Partnering with Char to champion her ministry invigorates him with a new purpose and provides an excuse to spend time with the girl he never forgot. But when they embrace three young sisters fighting to stay together while living on the streets, their project becomes deeply personal.

Together, they must prove to a town reluctant to see anything other than holiday perfection that the greatest gift of the season isn't found under a tree.

 

My Review

When former summertime friends reunite as adults, they rekindle more than friendship.

Char, the town veterinarian is on a mission to save more than critters. The plight of the homeless has touched her soul and she proposes remodeling the unused firehouse into a shelter to the city council which gets immediately voted down.

Jonas, who’s managed to establish himself as a B movie romantic leading man, is in town to settle his late grandparents’ home farm. He rapidly loses any fight against returning to his movie star life when he realizes Char, his long-lost love, has not only settled in town, but has a heart big enough to rescue any kind of stray. Will that also include him?

As they explore their feelings and work to encourage town Grinches to grow their Christmas hearts, the plight of the homeless touches everyone in a uniquely precious way. Told in alternating perspectives, this sweet, short, inspirational holiday romance will boost your spirits.
