Merry Little Mishap is a wonderfully written novella (which I overlooked at first and ended up slightly sad, that it is so short) and I truly loved it.
I was hooked straight from the first sentence. I once read, that in the book, the first sentence is very important and as someone who always wanted to write one, I sometimes dreamed about what would this sentence be for my book (which never happened). So when I read the one that Vivian Mae chose for her book I was smitten and my mouth fell open immediately.
After this shocking intro, we have a couple of scenes where we get to know the main characters and because we are reading a romantic story, we find out that they like each other and wonder how long it is going to take for them to tell or show each other and how this is going to happen.
The author did an amazing writing job and it did not take a long to get where we wanted and the main scene if I can call it that, was ...just wow. The place, conversation and all the spicy things left me awestruck. No words can describe how amazing it was and how much I enjoyed it.
This book is a bite-sized and incredibly spicy snack that you need to read to get some holiday atmosphere into your life, it is definitely worth it.
