I received a copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.

This a very sweet and romantic book! It has the classic love story feel and very well written. I loved it! For a novella, it had a steady pace and I was able to get to know the characters pretty well. I love the Christmas storm and the story of the mistletoe kiss. From the start, I couldn't believe her friend said what she did at the party and didn't like her, but as the story went on I felt bad for her. The whole story has that Christmas magic.

I liked Pippa from the start because she wasn't the typical girl. Being the daughter of a duke you would expect her to be a bit stuck up, but her parents are nothing like that and have raised her to be kind to everyone. She knits gifts for the people in the village and doesn't hold a grudge.

My heart hurt for Lucas when he told the story about his family and you could tell it affect him a lot. I don't think he hid his engagement but actually didn't think about at all because of his family and his past. He comes as cold at first. but quickly warms up.

I wanted more about Pippa's parents because they sound wonderful. The ending was great and I was shocked by Lucas's parents in the end.

Lady Pippa and Lucas are two of my favorite characters!
