The Mistletoe Bet A Christmas Novella

Maren Moore2021
Everyone says “there’s no place like home”… well not for me. When I’m forced to spend the holidays at home with my family in Strawberry Hollow, I have no idea how I’m even going to survive the week, let alone make it through my least favorite holiday… Christmas. That is until I run into my childhood crush, and my brother’s best friend, Parker Grant. Now, he’s the sexy, off-limits doctor in our small town, and nothing like the man I left behind six years ago. While I hate the holidays, there is nothing that he loves more. Well, other than a good bet. Which is exactly what happens when we end up together under the mistletoe. A bet that changes everything. He asks for the next seven days to change my mind about Christmas. But seven days alone with Parker is more than either of us bargained for. Now, there’s much more at stake than a silly mistletoe bet. The Mistletoe Bet is a complete standalone Christmas novella with lots of banter, even more laughter and a heartwarming HEA.

The Mistletoe Bet - Maren Moore

4⭐️ Solid Holiday Novella

- city girl falls for small town hero

- brothers best friend

- curvy heroine

- grumpy x sunshine holiday edition (hates Christmas x loves Christmas )

“I’m here for a week, and my life is not some cliché Hallmark movie, where the corporate girl falls for the sweet, small-town guy when she comes home for Christmas to save the family business or some other contrived festive nonsense”

This was a cute Christmas novella, with hallmark vibes and a touch of spice.

Perfect start to your holiday reading. Quinn and Parker have great chemistry. Childhood friends who have always been in love with one another.

When Quinn comes home for Christmas she never could have imagined that a little mistletoe would change her life.

It all started with a bet, but will it end in love?
