Kay Springsteen has perfected the Christmas Regency romance. Teach Me Under The Mistletoe was absolutely wonderful, I could not put this book down. The characters, even the ones who only make a brief appearance, are all wonderfully developed, the story was not rushed. It flowed perfectly.
Kitty (Lady Catherine) has it in her mind to catch the attention of Lord Strathern by kissing him under the mistletoe. A comment was made that a young girl of her age without any true suitors is destined to be a spinster. Kitty wants nothing to do with that, and nothing to do with the "boys" that are interested in her. She wants Lord Strathern, a man who has travelled the world and seems to be interested in more mature women. Kitty decides that she needs to learn to kiss the way a man likes to be kissed so that she can gain the attention and then the affection of Strathern. Kitty asks Hugh McCollum to teach her how to kiss.
Hugh knows that he should deny Lady Catherine her request afterall he and his older brother could lose their jobs if anyone found out that he was talking to her let alone teaching her how to kiss. There is something about her that he just cannot resist. He knows he is in trouble when he begins to fall in love with her. He does not want to see her with any man, especially the likes of Lord Strathern. There is nothing that he can do, he is beneath her.
I actually developed a "book crush" on Hugh. This is what a man should be like. This book is certainly one that I will be reading again in the future. I hope that you go pick up a copy for yourself. You get Teach Me Under the Mistletoe at Amazon or Barnes and Noble. You can also find Kay Springsteen on Facebook.
Happy Reading!!!
