The Mistletoe Promise

De: Richard Paul Evans

Narrado por: January LaVoy

A love story for Christmas—now a Hallmark Channel original movie—from the #1 bestselling author of The Christmas Box and The Walk.

Elise Dutton dreads the arrival of another holiday season. Three years earlier, her husband cheated on her with her best friend, resulting in a bitter divorce that left her alone, broken, and distrustful.

Then, one November day, a stranger approaches Elise in the mall food court. Though she recognizes the man from her building, Elise has never formally met him. Tired of spending the holidays alone, the man offers her a proposition. For the next eight weeks—until the evening of December 24—he suggests that they pretend to be a couple. He draws up a contract with four rules:

1. No deep, probing personal questions
2. No drama
3. No telling anyone the truth about the relationship
4. The contract is void on Christmas Day

The lonely Elise surprises herself by agreeing to the idea. As the charade progresses, the safety of her fake relationship begins to mend her badly broken heart. But just as she begins to find joy again, her long-held secret threatens to unravel the emerging relationship. But she might not be the only one with secrets.

Nice heartfelt story.

Nice heartfelt story, made me tear up a few times. I am o. to read the next story in this series.

5 stars all the way!

This is not my usual book and I was very skeptical when selecting it. I ended up listening to this book on the drive home from a Christmas visit with my family. I could hardly stop to gas up when needed wanting to get right back to the book. It made me smile and cry and laugh a few times and thats just what I needed!

Uplifting story

Easy and fun book to listen to. I like a book that makes me think about it afterwards. This was thought provoking.

A story one only dreams about

Didn't know what to think, yet wanted to keep listening. Most memorable , the recount Nicholas shares at the end and the response by his girlfriend .

Sweet love story

Some how I bought this without realizing it was a romance, which I don't read. It is a sweet story about forgiveness and redemption but I don't care for the abundance of superficial/materialistic qualities or the Cinderella feel.

Couldn't stop listening!

I love this book. The story enveloped me from the start & kept me wrapped up to the very end. I would recommend this book to anyone & everyone. The narrator was magnificent!

Unexpected

The twists and turns were unexpected but true to life. Good story! Thanks for a good holiday read.

Wonderful story!

For most of us, it is harder to forgive ourselves that to forgive someone else. This is a beautifully-written story about forgiveness and love.

Excellent Book

This audio book has become a seasonal favorite and well worth the time. One of Richard Paul Evans masterpieces. Right up there with my all time favorite The Christmas Box Series of which I have enjoyed both the books as well as the movies

Great story of love and forgiveness

I really liked this story. It's unique while being a females fantasy 😄. Not another sappy Christmas story. Just a really good Christmas romance book.
