A city bookshop owner heads to the English countryside for a holiday reunion—only to face her childhood enemy.

Elinor Noel—Nory for short—is quite content running her secondhand bookshop in London. Forever torn between her working-class upbringing and her classmates’ extravagant lifestyles at the posh private school she attended on scholarship, Nory has finally figured out how to keep both at equal distance. So when two of her oldest friends invite their whole gang to spend the time leading up to their wedding together at the castle near their old school, Nory must prepare herself for an emotionally complicated few days.

The reunion brings back fond memories, but also requires Nory to dodge an ill-advised former fling. When she falls quite literally into the arms of Isaac, the castle’s head gardener, who has nothing but contempt for the "snobby prep school kids," the attraction between them is undeniable. And as Nory spends more time with Isaac during the wedding festivities, she finds herself falling hard for the boy she used to consider an enemy. Nory and Isaac explore their common ground, but pressures mount on all sides, and Nory must decide what kind of life she wants to live and what sort of love is worth the risk . . .

"Filled with holiday bliss and the spirit of new starts, Nory and Isaac's second chance is the perfect holiday romance."—PopSugar

"Meet Me Under the Mistletoe captures the same small-town charm and holiday cheer found in Bayliss’s debut novel, The Twelve Dates of Christmas, while tackling themes of class relations, self-acceptance, family loyalty, and the value of old friendships and new love.”—Apartment Therapy

Really cute winter story about friendship and love. I'm really glad my book club chose this for our December read.

This book was ok. I fell asleep many, many times getting through it. The pace/content in the epilogue made me wish 2 hours had been cut from the book to make room for what was summed up right at the end. I think this is one of those circumstances where a movie would be better. A sleepy, not bad book.

Solid 3.5 stars

The narrator was fantastic, and the story is absolutely beautiful. I found myself fully engrossed in the weaving of each character’s story line, and I will be recommending it to anyone I know who likes a good romance novel!

Cute story but predictable. They tie in lots of real world issues like racism, sexism, and suicide but they all seem thrown in to make the story longer as opposed to hitting hard on these core issues.

Predictable
