Christmas in November!
Mistletoe Mischief is the second book in Codi Hall's
Falling in Mistletoe series!
This is the spin-off from Codi's Mistletoe Romance series published through Sourcebooks Casablanca Books.
Every single book is packed full of fun, hijinks, romance
and everything Christmas!
Mistletoe Mischief can easily be read as a standalone but I highly recommend all the books. There are so many great stories and characters set in this fanciful town of Mistletoe, Idaho.
About the Book
A case of mistaken identity leads to holiday hijinks in this laugh-out-loud contemporary romance from the author of 10 Things I Hate About Mistletoe.
In need of a distraction from his dumpster fire of a love life, adventure tour guide Pike Sutton is thrilled when his favorite travel podcaster accepts an invitation to experience the gorgeous landscapes and festive charms of Mistletoe, Idaho. He knows her visit will mean great things for the business he shares with his friend Anthony, but Pike has no idea that the real force behind “Exposures” is nothing like what he sees on social media.
Ryler Perkins is perfectly happy being the voice behind the microphone while her cousin stars as the face of their popular podcast. She’s used to men drooling all over Alea, but for once she finds herself wishing a certain sexy hipster lumberjack would notice her instead. Maybe that’s why Ryler completely loses her mind and makes a move on Pike.
Their kiss under the mistletoe is more than steamy, but it abruptly ends when Pike discovers he’s been smooching Alea’s “assistant.” He isn’t about to jeopardize everything by seducing a woman who’s off-limits. But as Pike guides the podcast crew around town and into the great outdoors, Ryler seems determined to get him hotter under the collar than a steaming cup of cocoa . . .
My Review
If you thought 10 Things I Hate About Mistletoe was spicy, Mistletoe Mischief says, “hold my beer.”
I wasn’t sure about Pike’s story because throughout the entire Mistletoe Romance series, he’s been an unrepentant ladies man. Even with the last book I was doubtful. I was totally wrong. While Pike is an assertive, confident man on the outside, inside he’s plagued with insecurity and disappointment. Pike is a thoughtful, kind, dedicated, and loyal person and just searching for happiness like all his friends have found.
Ryler has a successful podcast but hides behind her cousin’s modelesque persona. Ryler has some baggage of her own and would rather be in the background than face the constant scrutiny from social media comments on her appearance. Wouldn’t we all.
Ryler’s podcast travels around the globe looking for exotic/hidden gem locations to explore and share with her listeners. She posts on social media asking followers where the podcast should travel to next. Pike’s comment and invitation to explore Mistletoe sparks nostalgia for Ryler and she jumps at the chance to visit.
Ryler remembers her Christmases in Idaho as a child and is keen to explore the Christmas-themed town. To learn more, Ryler checks out–stalks–Pike’s Instagram and is enchanted by his pictures, and charmed by the hunky red-head’s sense of humor. Aren’t we all š
These two are electric together. Pike’s wicked sense of humor paired nicely with Ryler’s snark. Their witty banter tickles the funny bone and their chemistry is off the charts!
The book follows the same timeline as 10 Things I Hate About Mistletoe. I loved this because it gives readers an in-depth understanding into Pike’s relationships with his friends and family, and enriches the storyline. I'm here for it all!
Mistletoe Mischief is an amusing, steamy Christmas romance that’ll have you snorting with laughter, warming your heart, and fanning your blush-filled cheeks!
I highly recommend every single book by Codi Hall.
