Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Jess Michaels is a USA Today Bestselling Author who likes geeky stuff like Star Wars, playing video games, Bob’s Burgers and collecting POPs! She also drinks a LOT of Diet Coke. Probably an unhealthy amount, but it’s her only vice. She will eat (almost) anything coconut, truly anything cheesy and nothing spicy (yes, she is a walking stereotype when it comes to that). She likes cats, her dog Elton and people who care about the welfare of their fellow humans.

Although she started out traditionally published by Avon/HarperCollins, Pocket, Hachette and Samhain Publishing, in 2015 she went fully indie and has never looked back! She is lucky enough to be married to her favorite person in the world and live tucked between the ocean and the mountains in Oregon.

When she’s not watching Our Flag Means Death or trying out all the new flavors of Greek yogurt, she writes historical romances with amazing heroes and sassy heroines who do anything but wait to get what they want.

Cav can have all the days of Christmas in my book! He totally won my heart!
What would you do if the woman you loved was marrying your best friend? That is exactly what we discover in Mismatched under the Mistletoe.******Overall Rating: 4 starsKindle Unlimited: NoStandalone: YesSteam: 4 stars******Andrew and Cavendish...two best friends, rakes are about to have their worlds changed. Andrew is excited and when Cav inquires why his friend is so excited, Andrew explains it is because he has met the love of his life, and at that moment the most wonderful woman walked into the ball and Cav was instantly smitten, too bad she was there for Andrew.My heart went out to Cav. How he must have felt. First watching his best friend and Emily madly in love, and then dealing with the loss of his best friend and Emily's grief. All while sitting in the background hoping that one day, she will realize that he loves her and return his feelings. Will that day ever come?Mismatched under the Mistletoe is a friends to lovers/second chance-ish romance. Cav and Emily have been friends since Emily married Cav's best friend. They suffered the loss of Andrew together, and now they have the opportunity to have a second chance at love, but will Emily risk her friendship with Cav for the unknown? This book brings out feelings, my heart ached, I have never wanted someone to get his HEA as much as I did Cav...Emily has been widowed for over 5 years and she has decided to throw the party of the season at her home following the theme of the 12 days of Christmas. She has goaded her friend Cav into helping her with this party. A party in which she thinks she will match six wallflowers with six rakes...and each day will have a theme of the 12 days of Christmas. What could possibly go wrong? Rakes, wallflowers, two friends (one that has been in love with the other for over a decade), and a lot of birds. Yep, this is definitely a recipe for success.The book kept me engaged, was easy to read, definitely had a steam (oh boy there was steam), romance, and a story that made me hold my breath at times, just so I could try and stop my heart from hurting. I was a fabulous tale of two people finding that friendship can often be more, and sometimes the last person you are looking for is right in front of you. I enjoyed this book and recommend it wholeheartedly.

This story was so touching and emotional. It showed the love between a young couple, the love between two men who were best friends, the friendship between a man and a woman, and the devastation of the death of a loved on, along with comical events at a country party. I definitely recommend this book!

Cav has been in love with Emily since he met her nine years ago when she was engaged to his best friend. He was a friend to both of them and never revealed his love for her. Now she has been a widow for five years and he is losing time to get her to love him because he must find a bride and start a family.

He knows she'll be resistant so he must tread lightly but this felt a little too drawn out. Eventually progress is made but not for all the couples she's trying to match during her holiday party. Too bad there wasn't at least one other happy couple.

A wonderful Christmas romance as Jess does so well!! What is better than unrequited love that finally comes to fruition and in the middle of a madcap party with the theme of the Twelve Days of Christmas!

He had loved he forever and even though she had married his best friend, the feeling never went away. When she is widowed, he helped her any way he could and they were the best of friends. Could they now be more? Simply romantic!

The story of Cav and Emily touched me deeply. What woman wouldn't want a man who loved her deeply, selflessly, passionately and unconditionally? John Cavendish is that man. He stood by as she married his best friend. He was their closet friend and loved I secret because he loved them both. Now Emily is a widow who's had five years to grieve. How do they come together? Therein lies the tale.
Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2020
Overall enjoyed Emily and Cav’s story. I appreciated that the climax was handled like mature adults. And that it was believable. I hate misunderstandings or situations made unnecessarily dramatic if the heroes would just talked it out and thankfully that wasn’t found here. I also really like when authors add epilogues, just my personal preference. It’s a nice story to read during this time of year. Yes there are some things I’d like to play out differently but overall I really liked it. I’d recommend it.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

3.5 stars for this steamy Regency Christmas romance!

Emily's husband died 5 years ago. Over that time, she has become closer and closer to his friend, Cav. Since she doesn't have love in her life, she throws a matchmaking party with the theme of the 12 Days of Christmas. She enlists Cav to help her. Who will end up matched at the party?

The chemistry between Emily and Cav was amazing - especially in the bedroom! I haven't read many regency romances, and I did not expect it to be that steamy! I was pleasantly surprised!

I was a little disappointed in this party. I loved the idea that it's based around the 12 Days of Christmas. But I felt like it could have been executed better. The party seemed like an afterthought. I wish more of the couples paired up or we could at least see if there was any chemistry! I felt like the romance between Emily and Cav could have just taken place in London.

It wasn't a disappointing story. I just felt it could have been executed better. Definitely worth a read, though!

A Jess Michael's romance is always a great read but a Jess Michael's Christmas romance is simply a must read. Mismatched Under the Mistletoe is a fun read with humor and a romantic quality that only Ms. Michael can bring. Yes, the hotness factor is through the roof, which if you've read her books before you would expect, but it doesn't overwhelm the simple romance of the story. I love that the the hero and heroine are the best of friends before the HEA comes into play.
I would recommend this story to anyone who enjoys a well written romance with like able characters.

I adored this book. But then, you can never go wrong with anything by Jess Michaels, I've come to discover. Although this was a relatively short book, and touted to be a lighthearted one, it had me crying and kept me in suspense and anxious at how things would turn out. I was invested in the characters. The author managed to fit a lot into this story. It was an emotional ride, the chemistry was sizzling, and yes, there was humour that had me chuckling too.

5.0 out of 5 stars a wonderful emotional story
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 29, 2020
It's such a beautiful and emotional story. I absolutely loved it and I adored Cav from the very start. It's so beautiful how he fell in love with Emily and the agony to hide his love from her for 9 years because she was married to his best friend. I felt sorry for Emily losing her beloved husband. But I was happy that Emily and Cav found happiness together after the loss and heartache. It's a tender love story full of passion and emotion. It's another gem of a story by Jess.

This is a wonderfully written seasonal story, that will keep you entertained on a winter's night. The plot is full of emotional plotting, and beautifully crafted characters. This is a great book that will suit anybody who loves steamy historical romances, that has a few twists and turns.

This was the perfect festive historical romance read. Whimsical, full of nostalgia, emotion, joy and hilarity, not to mention layered with a beautiful and complicated love story.

This is my first time reading this author but it definitely won't be my last. Highly recommended
