A love story for Christmas 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 weeksuntil the evening of December 24he 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.

“Trauma has a way of indelibly linking the incidentals to the profound.”

Loved the Mistletoe series ❤️ This ⬆️ is a sparkly crystalline snowman in my neighborhood.

I stayed up late to finish this book. I was surprised considering the last few books by this author I have read I didn't care for, so I didn't have high expectations for this one. I was pleasantly surprised. It did seem a bit more serious than I was expecting, but it was still a great book.

My favorite book in months, almost of the year. I couldn‘t put it down & stayed up late to finish. Elise & Nicholas enter a contract to be a couple until Christmas Eve. A heart-warming story.

I liked this. It was like one of those Hallmark Christmas movies, but the more serious ones with something sad added in. I didn‘t love the characters, but I cared about them enough to finish the book. Overall a sweet Christmas time read. Three and a half stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

This had more depth than i was expecting! A man and woman who work in the same office building decide to be each others‘ dates for all the holiday parties and events, no strings attached. But each one is grappling with a heavy secret- can they forgive themselves and each other?

This was a very cute holiday story about two single people who make a contract to be together through the holidays. Of course the ending is predictable but I loved it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

marleed I‘ll have to count up the RPE books I‘ve read from Thanksgiving to Christmas - maybe 10. It was fun. I didn‘t read this one - more for next year! 5y
TamTracy @marleed I read a LOT of holiday books this season. It was fun. I read all three of his mistletoe “series” but not in order lol. 5y
marleed Me too! This was the first year that I‘ve tied my reading to the season and it was fun. I even tackled my tall John Grisham TBR stack in October! 5y
TamTracy @marleed Nice job! 5y

I'm not one to read a Chriatmas theme, and I'm not big contemporary but I wanted to read a book that was turned into a Hallmark move. I love the movie. The book is definitely different and the movie leaves out a big (if not the most important) part. They really cheered it up. But I liked the book anyway. A quick, easy read.

I took off from work today to rest my achy hands. Was able to finish a book and hit the library. I love the Mistletoe Promise Hallmark movie so I want to give the book a try. 😁

There is nothing better than a holiday romance and this one is no exception. Evans has the rare talent to make holiday love seem magical and not at all cheesy! I wish my life was like a holiday romance and my Prince Charming would wonder into my life during the holidays! 💖🎄💖

I'm not a huge fan of romance books... unless it's Christmas time. Richard Paul Evans gives you exactly what you want from a holiday book- sweet, predictable romance, holiday cheer, and sappy good sentiments. In this particular book it's two lonely adults (who each have a secret to hide) enter in a contract to be each other's date for the holiday season. It's ridiculous and smoopy, but exactly the kind of quick holiday audio book I needed.

4/5 stars This book was a perfect finish to my goodreads year. Such a good Christmas story that really made the season feel that much sweeter. Some hardships in the book, but it ends well. What more can you ask for? A sweet Christmas love story ❤

OK, I think I might be addicted to the library. I just checked out another book when I already have four physical books and four e-books checked out. I cannot stop, resistance is futile! #Bookaholic

I adore these books and will be sad when I finish The Mistletoe Secret. I might hold off until a little closer to the holiday. We will see. This book actually was turned into a Hallmark movie, so I definitely think fans of Hallmark's oft-cheesy but also enjoyable movies will enjoy this!
