Kiss Me Under the Mistletoe

Product Information

Yuletide had always been Merlin’s favourite time of year. Celebrations in Ealdor were comparatively modest, but there was always enough warm mulled cider and cranberry-apple wassail to go around. Once the adults became too engaged with their own carousing, he and Will would appropriate a bottle or two of cider to share between themselves. The night usually ended with Will finding a village girl to snog under some mistletoe (when mistletoe could not be found, a sprig of parsley was used in its place). You presume nothing." He gave her the crooked smile that rather than detract from his otherwise perfect looks only made him more endearing. Forbes calls it one of the "big four" plants you'll see at a mid-winter celebration, along with ivy, holly and evergreen trees (like Christmas trees and wreaths). Kara makes no move to step out of their embrace afterwards and so neither does Lena, she’s going to enjoy this as long as she can. Despite its romantic connotations, mistletoe is a parasitic plant with poisonous berries, that relies on other plants for its survival.

So whether it's at a holiday party or in a Christmas movie, there's a good chance you'll see some mistletoe this week. Just don't try to eat it. I actually enjoyed the majority of the book. I liked the characters, not loved, but liked. I do love the main character moves to small town but they aren’t from a small town they are super famous and don’t know how to be a normal person type trope. The only thing is with this book that doesn’t really happen as Louise is surprisingly humble and knows just how to fit in. Which defiantly makes her character more likeable and I guess is a middle finger to the other characters that Louise isn’t fake like the tabloids say they were and she was originally from humble beginnings. Well, not in a literal sense." More in the metaphorical, destined to forever be by your side even though you're a total turniphead sense.From Harry Potter’s first kiss to Justin Bieber’s holiday tune, kissing under the mistletoe is everywhere in pop culture. But this Christmas tradition — that if you’re standing under the leafy plant, it’s time for a smooch — existed long before it ever appeared in movies and pop songs. That is the story. Although there is academic debate about when the details became what they are, the story itself is fixed. There is no such story in the Norse tradition as the one told in this article. There is no such Norse legend as what is described here. Baldur was not killed by an evil spirit, and once killed, stayed dead. There is indeed a story about Baldur's death that involves mistletoe and crying, but it's nothing like what has been described here. I’m not complaining,” Lena smiles, ignoring their friends and family for the moment. She’ll be embarrassed later but right now, she’s too happy to care.

Mistletoe is not just for Christmas as you will learn during this lovely romance novel. In fact there are two stories being told in this book, which I wasn't fully expecting. Everything did, except for one giantess, Thokk, who may have been Loki in disguise. Thokk refused to weep, condemning Baldur to stay in the underworld until Ragnarok. Across the table, Gwen sent him a commiserating smile. He returned it with difficulty. All Merlin wanted now was to go to bed and sleep off his deflated mood.
