    A wager, between a Viscount, a Marquis and a Duke to bed the next married or widowed woman entering the ballroom, has Holly being the targeted lady. Unfortunately Holly is not the widow she proclaims to be and Michael refuses to let the other lords touch her as he realizes he feels more for her than he should. As a pretend fiancé, this should save Holly but emotions run high and Michael learns her secret. As feelings deepen, secrets that they are each hiding eventually come to light. Understanding and forgiveness play a part in this story. I enjoyed the story as it is well written, entertaining in the banter between the two of them and this makes for a great love story. There is danger but things work out as they should so there is a HEA. I would highly recommend this as a great read.

    The Mistletoe Mistress is a prequel to the Saints and Scoundrels Series by Maddison Michaels. It is a lovely novella easily read in one evening. I adored the hero Michael Drake and the heroine Holly Jenkins. There are so many sparks flying in this story and a few steamy scenes. I enjoyed the biting banter and the humor. Michaels has outdone herself again. Truly a delight to read.
