Games We Play Book 3.5: Mistle-Joe Kisses by DJ Jamison

Games We Play Book 3.5

Tis the season for Mistle-Joe kisses...

What happens when I step under the mistletoe with my co-worker at a holiday party? An idiotic, reckless mistake that could change everything.

Our sweet, chaste kiss quickly turns to fire. And when Joe offers himself up for the taking, I'm no longer strong enough to deny myself. At least, for one night.

It can't go any further. I've been down that road before--and mixing business and pleasure cost me everything. But the craving for him only gets stronger once I know how good we can be together.

Joe is sweet and considerate, and judging by the friendly overtures, he'd like more. But how can I trust my heart when it's led me astray before?

It's going to take a holiday festival, a drunk Santa, and a romantic carriage ride to make me see my grinchy heart has space to grow--a space just for Joe.

My Review: 4/5 Stars

In this Christmas novella set in the Games We Play series, we get Joe and Augustus's story. The two of them work for Darren at the auto shop and are absolutely the sweetest together! So a little different from the games that lead to everyone's love story, these two get caught under the mistletoe. And after eyeing one another at work countless times, the kiss between is the confirmation that their chemistry is off the charts. But nothing is ever that simple. Augustus has been burned badly in the past when it came to dating a coworker. And though this situation is completely different, it's hard to overcome a past hurt like his. But Joe isn't one to give up. He wants to show Augustus how much he cares about him and if Augustus truly feels nothing for him, he'll walk away. Even if it means breaking his own heart. The two of them have had rough pasts when it comes to love, but together they could heal their old wounds and find their perfect match. A fun short novella in this series, you definitely don't want to miss this one!
