I loved this book. It’s crammed full of feel good loveliness and cosy chaos. If you are looking for Sottish set warm hearted romance this book is for you. The characters are fabulous and plenty of laugh out loud moments. This is such a fresh read. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Christmas magic at its best.

Thank you Netgalley.

Really sweet story with characters you fall in love with almost instantly. Picturesque setting and interwoven stories that make you want to keep reading. Thoroughly enjoyed this book!

This could have been a cute, highland romance BUT there was so much going on it was hard to keep up. So many different plot threads, and it was just one thing after another until it was over. Dead dads, lost dads, reappearing dads, infidelity, crazy girlfriends, a random 30 pages about vandalism. It was all too much.
I didn't dislike this book, overall it was okay. I was mostly overwhelmed.

What a charming Christmas story, funny, with great characters in a snowy Scottish setting. A little bit quirky and lots of fun. Thank you netgalley for the advance copy

I loved this book: it’s warm, Christmassy and laugh out loud funny. Good from the start but it really gets going about a quarter of the way through, the plot and humour both increase. Effie a such a quirky character, I loved her! The descriptions of the old hotel, the Christmas decorations , the Highland setting and the food are all brilliant. I definitely recommend this festive read.

I was initially drawn to the book because of the highland cow on the cover because CUTE then I read the blurb and knew I would love it, and I wasn't wrong. Heartwarming and wholesome, I would highly recommend

Loved this book it was so funny in places. Liv was talking to someone on a dating app and the he just disappeared. His profile said he was a chef in the Highlands. She decides to go and challenge but when arrives in a snowstorm and then discovers that he says he doesn't know her. All the characters are brilliant

This charming and easy-to-read Christmas story is set in a cosy, snow-covered Highlands hotel, offering a delightful escape into the festive season. The book is filled with humour, making it a light and enjoyable read, perfect for curling up with on a cold winter's night. While the plot may not be particularly gripping or unforgettable, the warm, comedic moments and vivid holiday atmosphere more than make up for it. Though it won't be one of those "unputdownable" reads, it still delivers enough charm and entertainment to be worth your time this festive season.

3.5/5 star holiday romance.

While this one definitely is heavy on the fluff, isn't that what a cozy holiday romance should be about?! I thoroughly enjoyed this and it did make me wish I was in the Scottish Highlands desperately! Overall, just a very cute read.

Almost DNF'd this book. I didn't feel it was the usual standard from this author. However, I persevered and ended up actually quite liking it. I really liked Liv and I think that's what saved the book for me.

This seemed like a cute contemporary romance, but I just felt like it was too slow for me. It didn't really go in the direction I thought it would and I was left feeling a little disappointed. I also couldn't connect with any of the characters if I'm being completely honest.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the arc!!

Thank you Netgalley and Aria and Aries for my ARC copy.

I absolutely loved this it was such a fun quick read. It had fantastic characters I really loved Liv and Effie, but I especially lived Ginfer the Highland cow. I would highly recommend giving this a read this festive season .

Olivia Bingham thinks she may have found her special someone, finally. Fraser is a chef at a hotel in the Scottish highlands, and though they have only communicated via a dating app, Olivia is smitten.
Unfortunately, when Olivia decides to show his picture to her friends she finds that his profile has disappeared. It seems Olivia has been ghosted, again.
Angry and embarrassed, Olivia sets off to Scotland to confront Fraser. When she reaches the hotel, it’s nothing like she imagined, and Fraser shows no sign of recognising her.
A freak accident and a snowstorm mean Olivia is going to have to stay for a few days.
Can she get to the bottom of things before she has to leave?
This is a story with family, friendship and love at its heart. Olivia is a funny, feisty character who you will be rooting for from the start. Another great read from Bella Osborne.

This is a cute, holiday romance. Very quick to read and engaging throughout. The characters were fun, the plot moved seamlessly from scene to scene. My only hold up to giving it 5 starts is I wanted more romance. It felt more like an enemies to friends, but overall recommend.
I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Unfortunately this book wasn’t my cuppa right from the start and didn’t change. I dnf’d 15% in.

Thank you NetGalley for sending this book for review consideration.

When Liz is ghosted by a man she connected with on an app, she sets off before the holidays to find him and ask why. A winter weather accident finds her in the home of the 'ghosted' but he seems to have no idea who she is. This was a fun holiday novel with a great family of characters and neighbors.

I received this ARC via NetGalley.

I think this book was a fun read. I loved the banter between the leads because that’s something I usually enjoy reading. I also loved the kindness showed by Fraser’s granny and cousin to Liv. The friendship between Liv and Effie was actually very heartwarming to read. It just goes to show that sometimes being kind is the right thing to do.

However I wish there were more romance between the main characters. I felt like the enemies element was very strong but the love part came out very quickly. I do get why Fraser was so cold to Liv in the beginning because of his trauma from the past relationship. Even though it’s a cliche we’ve seen a lot in movies, but I truly hope people in real life don’t go through that because it can really mess a person big time. They had a few cute moments but I was just wanting more.

Mistletoe Magic in the Highlands is a really cute holiday romance, with a lot of fun and humour. Firstly, the premise is could have gone badly wrong. Liv thinks she's been ghosted by the guy she's been falling in love with online and ends up driving up to Scottland to confront him only to get trapped in a snowstorm discover he doesn't seem to know who she is. Things could have been done badly, but I thought the resolution was really well managed, maintaining some elements to the connection Liv had without her being in love with a fake person.

There's a strong sense of chaos throughout the story that keeps you turning to page to find out what on earth will happen next. I loved the freidnship between Effie and Liv, and also the dynamic with Liv ending up helping to deal with the other guests. There was such a great cast of characters, and she integrated multiple character backstories seamlessless, which really added to the reading experience.
The only thing I didn't love was how seriously she took the 'not liking English people' thing, it ruined the vibe and was such a dumb thing to be offended.
Overall definitely an enjoyable read.

What a cute holiday read ! This is a perfect quick read to cozy up with on a snowy night drinking hot tea. I finished this one in a day, it really sucked me into the story and setting. I love all books set in Scotland and if you throw in an adorable highland cow then I am sold. I liked the concept of the online dating apps and being ghosted. All the characters were very quirky and likable. I was sad to see it end. I recommend this for anyone who likes a holiday romantic comedy.

Thank you Netgalley and Aria and Aries for the digital arc in exchange for my honest review.

A cute, easy Christmas read. Lovely characters, especially Ginger! The main characters didn't have a great deal of chemistry but it was a bit more about the whole family dynamic.
