Book cover for the novel Mix-Up Under The Mistletoe by Margaret Amatt

The blurb:

Mix-Up Under The Mistletoe

She’s always on the outside looking in, but his door might just be the one to open for her this Christmas.

‘Her name’s Tilly. Tilly Thorpe. She lives in London.’

To stop his family from speculating about his love life, travel company CEO Rafe Harrington casually drops Tilly Thorpe’s name as his girlfriend. After all, they’ll never meet – she’s just a name he saw on a rival company’s website.

But when Rafe arrives at his family’s home in Glenbriar for Christmas, he’s shocked to find ‘his girlfriend’ waiting for him. He has some explaining to do and so does Tilly.

Why did Rafe’s family welcome her with open arms when she’s little more than a spy? Someone who’s trying hard to please her superiors, hoping it’ll bring some desperately desired happiness to her lonely existence.

Rafe isn’t a big fan of the festive season, but neither he nor Tilly can ignore their instant spark. With bad weather forecast, now is the ideal moment to discover some magic. Tilly’s never felt this at home anywhere, but none of it’s real, and that’s not why she’s here.

With time running short, can they seize this unexpected chance to fall in love not only with Christmas but also with each other?

Christmas Holiday Romance Romance

My thoughts:

Mix-Up Under The Mistletoe is the eleventh book in the Glenbriar series, and is yet another series that I've joined midway through rather than from the beginning. That did not matter, however, as this story can easily be read as a standalone.

When I read the blurb, I knew that I would enjoy this story. The cover had already caught my eye with its promise of a sprinkling of Christmas magic and an unexepected romance.

Neither Rafe nor Tilly began their day thinking it would be anything other than a normal day in the run up to Christmas. Rafe intended to get through the holiday with a pretend girlfriend called Tilly Thorpe who works for a rival company in London, one he'd never met, and more importantly, his family would never meet. Tilly intended to work up to the last minute and spend Christmas Day alone in her flat, waiting to return to work on Boxing Day. That was until Tilly was sent to Scotland with a colleague to try to meet with Rafe Harrington before he left for the holidays. And then fate takes a hand...

I found both Rafe and Tilly hugely likeable and enjoyed following their journey together discovering the magic of Christmas and finding love.

This is the perfect Christmas happy ending story, set in a snowy Glenbriar with twinkling lights and such a warm welcome from Rafe's family that I wanted to be there in person.

Having read Mix-Up Under The Mistletoe I'm now excited to read more in this wonderful feel-good series, so have added a few titles to my wish list.

Author Bio – Margaret Amatt
Margaret is a bestselling Scottish author and chocolate lover who has been writing stories for over twenty years (possibly more if you count her primary school efforts). Her early works will never see the light of day and are locked in dusty vaults on some old floppy disks. But after all those years of practise, Margaret released her first novel in 2021. It was the first of a ten-book series set on the gorgeous Scottish Isle of Mull. Margaret is also the author of the acclaimed Glenbriar Series, based in the fictional Scottish town of Glenbriar. This is an ongoing series with more books coming in 2024 and 2025. The stories are unashamedly romantic, but with lots of drama and an eclectic mix of characters. Each book can be read as a standalone, but followers of the series will enjoy catching up with the characters.
