Mistletoe Magic
Spending a quiet
Christmas housesitting and reading novels about hot cowboys sounds perfect to
Caitlin Butler. Until a stray kitten brings her face-to-face with Noah, her
crush from college. Watching the handsome vet in action melts Caitlin's heart
and brings back long forgotten emotion. She would be safer back at the house
lost in the pages of a book. But a toe-curling mistletoe kiss tempts her to
stay. Maybe she won't be spending this Christmas... alone.
Veterinarian
Noah Sullivan isn't a Scrooge, but the Christmas Eve tradition of hanging
mistletoe in the clinic's waiting room annoys him. Kissing doesn't belong at
the Copper Mountain Animal Hospital. Noah rethinks his position when Caitlin
arrives with a stray kitten she found freezing in the snow. All he wants now is
to maneuver the pretty preschool teacher under the mistletoe. If he's not
careful, he'll wind up on Santa's naughty list.
Kiss Me, Cowboy
She didn’t mean
to kiss him…
When dude ranch
wrangler Charlotte – aka Charlie – Randall kisses Zack Harris in an act of
empathy, she falls hat over spurs for the handsome military veteran turned
cowboy. Zack has too many demons, however, and refuses to get involved. A year
later, he's still stonewalling, and Charlie needs to move on with her life so
she can find a fulfilling relationship, not frustrating unrequited love.
Putting distance between them seems the best way to get Zack out of her head
and heart...but that means quitting the job she loves and accepting a position
in Colorado.
He didn’t mean
to kiss her back…
Growing up, Zack
longed for a real family, and had one with his squad while deployed in
Afghanistan. Now, he's back in the States and doesn't want anything messing up
his new ranch family, no matter how much he's attracted to the sexy,
hard-working Charlie. She could break his heart and ruin the comfortable
working relationship they and the other wranglers enjoy. Besides, her friends
claim she's looking for the perfect guy, and perfect he's not.
A kiss is just a
kiss…or is it?
When Zack learns
Charlie's thinking about leaving the ranch, he decides to find her a boyfriend
— someone so good, so perfect, she has a reason to stay in Montana. Until he
realizes too late that the only cowboy he wants her kissing is him. Can he
commit to love and convince Charlie not to leave? Or has she made up her mind
to put the past, and the kiss that started it all, behind her and move on without
him?
Mistletoe Wedding
Longer: Event
planner at the Bar V5 Dude Ranch, Meg Redstone is dreaming of a white Christmas
with twinkling lights, sparkly decorations and strategically placed mistletoe.
She loves making dreams come true for others, whether planning a holiday
wedding or giving her young daughter the best Christmas ever.
Ranch foreman
Tyler Murphy loves the holidays, but his newest employee has taken over his
barn with her over-the-top decorations. He admires Meg’s desire to give her daughter
the perfect Christmas while planning a winter wonderland wedding, but he wants
to show her that a Montana Christmas is more than glitter and lights.
After raising
his younger sister, an instant family is not on Ty's Christmas wish list. But
he finds himself falling hard for the single mom and her little girl. Meg,
however, is not interested in a romance with a cowboy like Ty, or any man.
Getting her under the mistletoe is going to take a Christmas miracle . . . or a
little help from Santa.
Excerpt:
KISS
ME, COWBOY
A
few minutes later, Charlie stepped out of the barn. Two copper braids hung down
from her hat. The only time he'd seen her wear make-up had been at Nate and Rachel's
wedding. Charlie had worn a dress showing off long, toned legs no one expected,
east of all him. He'd had to keep his distance that night and keep the other
wranglers away from her, too.
She
might act like a cowboy, rough and tumble, ready to jump into a fight if called
upon, but she was girl-next-door pretty, with blue eyes that sparkled and a
generous mouth that
readily
curved into a smile. He didn't let himself think of her as a woman often.
Treating her like a guy kept him from focusing on her soft lips, sweet scent,
and sexy curves.
She
rubbed the back of her neck. "Thought you'd be at the bunkhouse by
now."
He
shrugged. "Was waiting for you."
She
inhaled sharply.
Ty
was right about them not getting along. She seemed more pissed off today. He
jumped off the fence and closed the distance between them. "Got a few
minutes?"
"For?"
The
blues of her eyes reminded him of two tempting, deep pools of water. Perfect to
jump into when he was hot and sweating. Truth was, drowning in her didn't sound
like a bad way to go. The reason that would be a mistake poked at him like
hungry mosquitos.
"I
want to talk," he said.
With a degree in mechanical
engineering from Stanford University, Melissa McClone worked for a major
airline where she traveled the globe and met her husband. But analyzing jet
engine performance couldn’t compete with her love of writing happily ever
afters. Her first full-time writing endeavor was her first sale when she was
pregnant with her first child! Since then, she has published over thirty
romance novels with Harlequin and Tule Publishing Group. She’s also been
nominated for Romance Writers of America’s RITA® award. When she isn’t writing,
you can usually find her driving her minivan to/from her children’s swim
practices and other activities. She also sends care packages to deployed
service members and fosters cats through a local no-kill animal shelter.
Melissa lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband, three school-aged
children, two spoiled Norwegian Elkhounds and cats who think they rule the
house. They do!
