Christmas in July at the zoo is the last place single parents Eric Riley and Marissa Wilder expect to find love. Thanks to some mistletoe mischief in the form of their two young daughters and Santa, they discover mistletoe rules were not made to be broken.
EXCERPT:
āDaddy, youāre under the mistletoe.ā
Eric glanced up at a sprig of leaves and holly berries attached to the roof of the cart, then dropped his gaze to Marissaās. āSo we are,ā he murmured.
Her face flushed, but he couldnāt tell if it was from embarrassment, or anticipation of a kiss. He knew the reason his pulse raced like an out of control locomotive.
āYou have to kiss her,ā Reese stated.
God Bless you, Reese.
Santa laid his arm across the back of the front passenger seat and craned his head around, his brown eyes twinkling. āāTis tradition.ā
āItās the rule,ā Reese argued, frowning at Santa before turning back to Eric. āYou say so every Christmas when we stand in the doorway at Grandmaās.ā
āI do, donāt I?ā
Reese nodded emphatically. āEvery year.ā
Eric faced Marissa and sighed with exaggerated reluctance. āI mightāve been able to buck tradition, but a ruleās a rule.ā
