Absolutely Amazing and Emotional Read

This is book four in The Mistletoe Creek series and it is Joe and Grace’s story and omg it is definitely a must read. When Joe is in a bar he sees a drunken girl dancing on the top of the bar but when she falls it is Joe that catches her and with there undeniably attractive and chemistry they end up spending the night together only for her to disappear in the morning after giving Joe a false name as they didn’t think that they would ever see each other again. They meet again when Joe’s father wants to introduce his girlfriend’s daughter so you can imagine the shock when it turns out to be Grace which leaves Joe angry that she lied to him so he keeps his distance from her. When Joe realised that things are not what they seem between Grace and her mother he decides to take Grace away from the situation and also go with her and that is how they end up in Mistletoe Creek so that they can both have some time away. Joe and Grace end up having a great friendship and being there to support each other but in the background there feelings and attraction just keeps getting stronger but to them it is more about just understanding how each other feels and connecting as they go along on this journey. Wow the description of Mistletoe Creek felt so real as if you were there living through all the experiences and I absolutely loved Joe and Grace because even through all of life’s ups and downs and everything that they had been through they were still perfect for each other and together. This book was written with so much care and compassion on a very difficult subject along with making you feel so many emotions and I definitely recommend that you read this book and you will not be disappointed.

4.5 stars

Since this is my first book by Emmannuelle Snow, I didn’t exactly know what to expect. But it’s great! This story has a lot more depth than I initially thought it would have. A one night stand turns out to become so much more.
I really loved how the relationship of Joe and Grace developed. She’s such a brave girl and he was such a great support to her, with every decision she had to make and every step they took together.

A great holiday read!

Hansel and Gretel retelling
Christmas novella
Emotional/ hard topics

Wicked Love is an emotional Christmas novella that brings together two people who are ment to be despite an age gap and the fact they are step siblings. Grace may be 17 years old but has grown up fast due to her rocky relationship with her mother. She may love her body but her mother does everything in her power to make her feel bad about every bite she takes. Joe tried to stay away because he knows he can't fool around with someone who is underage but when he has to get her away from her mother they end up getting to know eachother as friends. I love the town of Mistletoe Creek. All of the authors have done a great job of creating a wonderful beautiful place you can't help but want to visit. If you like age gap books with lots of chemistry while still having emotional moments this book is for you!

I received an advanced review copy for free, and I'm leaving this review voluntarily.

Emotional and surprising age-gap romance.. Very good..

An emotional narrative, this story touches on some challenging issues, that are skillfully navigated by the author. The characters are compelling, exhibiting realistic reactions and significant mistakes, yet demonstrating resilience when it truly matters. Both Grace and Joe, along with Joe's father Philip, captivated my affection
