Een heerlijk kerstverhaal

Who says you cannot read a Christmas book in July? When Jade in Mingle All the Way by J.P. Sterling crashes against her neighbor’s car, he is not angry at all. Evan helps her repair her car and in return he asks her to be his fake date. Well, we all know that fake dating will not be fake for long.

From the moment I started reading this book I loved it. Jade is a lovely character, she does not take herself very seriously and that is so refreshing. She is very funny. Evan is a bit of an inventor and a nerd, but a handsome one (!) and he has had a bad experience: his fiance was stolen by his cousin. As she and his cousin are visiting he needs help and that’s where Jade comes in. Evan and Jade have such a great chemistry: both are so right for each other, because they are thinking the same way. And both have the same kind of humor, and that made that some scenes made me laugh out loud.

In this book there are lots of hilarious situations, for example the creature from the blue lagoon and robot Greta. You have to read this book to know what I mean. I knew Mingle All the Way would be a humorous book, because J.P. Sterling is known for that. I have read some of her novels and I enjoyed them all. As in all her other books the writing in Mingle All the Way is flowing and thanks to the dual POV (one of my favorite writing styles) we learn more about Evan and Jade. Both are great and normal characters you come to love and you root for them.

Mingle All the Way is a sweet and cute Christmas themed novel, with a flowing writing style, great characters, a good romantic and humorous story-line, a book I enjoyed reading. If you’re in for this, then check this book out (and all other J.P. Sterling’s novels as well).
