Release Blast & Review for Mistlefoe Match by Kait Flynn
MISTLEFOE MATCH
Kait Flynn
Release Date: December 12
Available in Kindle Unlimited
Jess Donnegan has hated me for a decade. I still don’t know why.
Didn’t stop me wanting her then. Doesn’t stop me now—especially when we get roped into co-chairing the Twelve Stops of Christmas together.
Forced proximity I can handle.
But when her coffee truck goes up in flames, and I’m the one dragging her out, the universe hands me another chance I’m not about to ignore.
Saving her? That’s firefighter reflex.
Helping her rebuild? Easy.
Staying unaffected when she’s close? Impossible.
Because under all that sharp, black-cat attitude is the woman I’ve been half in love with since high school—and the spark between us is a match begging for the strike.
We had mixed feelings about this story. So we are going to tell you what we loved about the book and what did not work for us.
The plot premise was what drew us to read it: a small town feel, a holiday festival, and communtiy support. We enjoy stories like this because they put you into the Christmas spirit, which is our favorite holiday. We loved how the communtiy showed overwhelming support and love for Jess in her time of need. She was loved by all, and her customers loved her specialties around the holidays that they could not live without. The best part of the story was the interactions with Esmerelda the donkey. Those made us laugh and chuckle.
The rest of our thoughts are that this. The main characters did not make us love them. We never warmed up to Jess at all; if being honest, we disliked her character. Powell, on the other hand, was supportive, kind, and always helped those in need; at least we liked his character, although we never fell in love with him. Meatball, on the other hand, we found interesting and funny; he made us smile and laugh. Esmerelda had us grinning. She was protective of Powell and a little heartmelter to boot.
Let us say that we love this author's works, and although we loved parts of the story, we found this story boring; we never felt any chemistry between the main characters.
Also, we love a good slow-burning romance, but things took too long to get started between the characters, and that wasn't until the end of the book, and then it felt like it was over.
We knew that once the main characters didn't make us fall in love with them, it was just going to be an okay read for us. For us to love a story, you really have to fall in love with the characters.
Every story is not for everyone, and that is okay.
We give it 3.5 stars.
