NetGalley Review: Mismatched Under the Mistletoe by Jess Michaels

 If you love Yuletide stories, sizzling romance and a fair bit of hilarity and hijinks, this is a perfect novella.  The short, holiday themed tale uses a classic “friends to lovers” trope against a backdrop of matchmaking, holiday parties and merriment.  The main characters are likable and clever, with a pre-established backstory so we can jump right into the romance.  The setting and plot, while entirely a foil for how our couple will get together, is cheerful, fun, flirty and often hilarious.  This reads as a comfortable story of two people figuring out how to move forward as more than friends.  A perfect fireside read for this holiday season.
