Customer Reviews

Full of the spirit of Christmas!

A charming rural Vermont setting and delightful cast of characters support this heartwarming story. Jonas and Bridget were separated due to youthful mistakes and a series of misunderstandings, perpetuated by Bridget's interfering and irritating mother. Their second chance at love, and especially to stand up to her controlling mother, appealed to my romantic heart. Very nicely done!

FROM BACK COVER

Let It Snow, Let It Snow You never quite get over your first love... especially when the holidays roll around. Jonas Concannon can attest to that. He's come back to Vermont at last and the first person he sees is Bridget O'Shea. Still young, still lovely, the auburn-haired beauty and her little daughter Molly are getting ready for Christmas. Sleigh rides... making hot cocoa from scratch...cutting out paper snowflakes and trimming a tree...it really is the most wonderful time of the year. Another kiss under the mistletoe should persuade her to say yes. The lady is willing - very willing. No longer lonely, Jonas is determined to claim Bridget's heart. He can't wait to share a season filled with joy... and forever kind of love

warm second chance at love holiday romance

Dr. Jonas Concannon decides someone else can do homage to Sinatra and make it in New York City as he no longer cares too. He goes home to Randolph, Vermont after being away for a decade. He almost immediately runs into Bridget O'Shea at her shop. As teens they were in love over a decade ago before her parents interfered and both moved on. She is a widow raising her eight years old daughter Molly and running a local craft shop. Bridget and Jonas realize their youthful attraction remains as strong as ever. However, her parents pressured her to reject Jonas years ago and still believe he is not worthy of their daughter. Bridget knows she owes them for their help with Molly, but what about her needs; that is if he still wants her once he learns what she concealed form him. MISTLETOE AND MOLLY is a warm second chance at love holiday romance that fans of Janet Dailey will enjoy although the plot has been used a zillion times before. The cast is solid as the lead couple is fully developed with flaws and issues while the key support players, mostly her family, bring out the best and worst in Jonas and Bridget. Contemporary readers will appreciate this entreating New England village tale. Harriet Klausner
