Main characters and close friends Lark Wellington and Da'Nika Martin may have been faking an engagement, but the chemistry between them was very real. I loved the way they bantered and teased each other as well as how devoted they each were to their "minis," also known as Lark's nephew and Da'Nika's goddaughter. Da'Nika and Lark really were perfect for each other, and it was very easy for me to cheer them on to their HEA.
The festive little town of Mistletoe, Montana was a delightful setting, and the story's secondary characters were every bit as endearing as Lark and Da'Nika themselves. I particularly loved Lark's parents, described as the Keebler elves due to their short stature. Lark's teasing relationship with his older brother, widowed single dad Sparrow, was also a lot of fun. I'd love to see Sparrow find love again in a future story.
Overall, "Sleigh Bride" was a very entertaining story, and I'd recommend it for
all fans of contemporary romance and romantic comedy. I look forward to checking out more of Xavier Neal's work in the future.

About "Sleigh Bride"
Tis the season to lie to your parents...
No?
Just Lark Wellington?
Well, it seems like the best idea Lark could come up with when his holiday-loving parents surprise him with a holly jolly visit he actively tried to avoid.
The lie?
He's engaged to his best female friend, Da’Nika Martin - after all she's the only person willing to go in on the crazy, last-minute scheme.
And now that we're talking about the snowflake white lie?
It just may cost him a lot more than coal in his stocking if he isn't careful...
Sleigh Bride is a short, sweet, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy that's jam packed with all new characters, all the cheer, and all the Christmas cookies you need to put a smile on your face this holiday season!
