About this eBook
From the moment Julie sees her best friend, Gavin, in the airport, it’s like no time at all has gone by. No matter how long they’ve been apart, their relationship has always been steady, comfortable, and decidedly “just friends.” Of course, that’s not stopping their meddling parents from hanging unlimited amounts of mistletoe everywhere she goes this holiday season.
Gavin is all too aware of their family’s matchmaking intentions. Still, he’s been happy to keep things in the friend zone. As the new starting quarterback for the San Antonio Mustangs, he’s got enough on his plate without adding romance to the mix.
But somewhere between dressing up as elves, nights watching com-coms, and heating things up in the town’s hot springs, Julie and Gavin wonder if they’ve landed right in the middle of a “reverse parent trap.” But falling for their parents’ scheming might involve one trap too many...

4.25⭐ The Mistletoe Trap was a highly inviting best friends to lovers, sports romance. That centres around the Christmas period, and sees Arizona pathologist Julie and San Antonio quarterback Gavin slowly fall in love. Thanks above all to the meddling of their respective parents, who have been convinced for years that they are perfect for one another. And with a lot of great characters, a lot of strong chemistry and sexy moments, I was engaged all the way through. So, if you're looking for a Christmas themed romance that's light on angst, but full of fun, great characters, and some sexy moments you should definitely check The Mistletoe Trap out! **I was kindly provided with an ARC by the author in exchange for an honest review**

The Mistletoe Trap was such a fun holiday read and definitely did the job of getting me in the holiday spirit!! I loved Julie and Gavin. They are the best of friends but I loved this wasn’t like most friends-to-lovers stories (my favorite!!) I usually read. This isn’t one of those books where these characters have been fighting the attraction for years and years and years. It was one of those organic growths of a relationship that I absolutely love with all of the typical ‘will this ruin what we have’ angst. I wasn’t at all a fan of either of their families since they seemed too toxic and enmeshed to ever come close to healthy but that didn’t stop me from truly enjoying this book and how Gavin and Julie ended up with their own HEA.

My first holiday-themed book of the season and it was a light and fluffy friends to lovers romance featuring a socially awkward female brainiac pathologist and a handsome NFL quarterback. It was a quick and easy to follow read with amusing levity, wit, and a bit of steam and sizzle after a lot of dancing around and parental meddling. The characters were likable and endearingly quirky with a cute and long history as best friends since childhood. It was an enjoyable read and a pleasant way to while away an afternoon.
