The Maid has been on my TBR for some time now, so when I learned that Molly the maid and other characters from Nita Prose’s #1 New York Times bestseller were featured in a holiday-themed novella, I had to read it.

While The Mistletoe Mystery was a sweet story, ala O. Henry, I was disappointed that there was no real mystery. I liked the characters and kept waiting for something exciting to happen. It didn’t.

I recommend The Mistletoe Mystery for holiday romance fans or Nita Prose, who might just be happy to see some of their favorite characters in a holiday setting without needing the novella to be a true mystery.

I received this advanced reader copy from Ballantine Books, courtesy of NetGalley. Order online or buy now at your favorite independent bookstore. Mine is Sellers Books and Art in Jim Thorpe, PA.
