Review: A great, quick holiday read

I'm a big Jill Shalvis fan and adore the Lucky Harbour series, so I was stoked to have this Christmas novella as a quick Lucky Harbour fix whilst waiting until May for the next book. And I do mean quick: this novella is SHORT, but it manages to pack in everything that makes Jill (and especially Lucky Harbour) a contemporary romance superstar--humour, wit, heartwarming romance, sexytimes, conflict, and the awesomeness that is Lucille. It's great to see Mia all grown up and settling into her life, and it's fantastic to catch up with the cast of the first three Lucky Harbour books five years later-- Maddie and Jax are still adorable, and I want to marry both of them! Nick is completely swoon-worthy, but because of the length of the novella, I found his transition from 'I don't do family' to 'forever and a day' a bit unbelievable.Overall, UNDER THE MISTLETOE is a sweet, heartwarming read and a great way to get into the holiday spirit. If you like Jill Shalvis or Lucky Harbour, be sure to check it out!
