Second Chance Under the Mistletoe by Kandy Shepherd Review

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book as I had not read this author before, but I loved the plot and story!

A true second-chance romance of a divorced couple brought together via their daughter, who is having a baby. I am a sucker for insta-love, and in this case, it is well worth it!

The author gives a great back story and develops the characters to be likable. The reason for the initial breakup was terrible, but the coming together was so right.

For a quick insta love and a sweet romance, Second Chance Under the Mistletoe is a perfect fast read. Full of the Christmas spirit, love and romance abound! What an enjoyable read!

4 STARS!!
