A Christmas Wedding In Mayhem
This was a really good read! I didn’t read Bryan and Hennessy’s original story, but I wasn’t lost at all reading this one. The writing flowed well, and I loved Bryan and Hennessy. Bryan was completely oblivious at the beginning of the story. I’m not sure why he refused to believe that Jacinta was being horrible, but I really wanted to smack
him a few times. It was obvious she was jealous, and being mean to Hennessy was fun for her. I was so happy when Hennessy stood up for herself and her family. The ensuing battle to get their wedding planned was great. The town coming together to help them made me tear up a few times. The ending was super sweet, and I loved that they got their HEA.
A Surprise Baby in Mayhem
Well, as the title says, there is a surprise coming. Jameson and Scott are doing well in their relationship, but they don’t realize that it’s about to get a whole lot crazier 🙂 The whole uncle/stepdad thing is still a little weird for me, but I like them together, so I try to look over it. Jameson was a whole lot of crazy during her pregnancy, and I think they planned about 5 weddings. It was sweet that Scott made sure that Jameson had exactly what she wanted. I LOVE how these sisters are always there for each other no matter what. I can’t wait to find out what happens with Walker and Bailey!

Epilogue
I look forward to reading the other books in this series.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC from NetGalley.
Christmas Chaos. This story is about Hennessy and Brian, and the planning of their wedding. I was glad when they began to take control of their lives. I enjoyed getting to know the others in this town and how they helped each other.
Baby Bedlam. Now Jameson and Scott find what they are looking for in the forever department. This included children. How they dealt with fears and the very real problems with pregnancy.
Both stories had their teary moments as well as a few laughs. This was the first book I have read by this author, and I am intrigued enough to go backward to read the first ones.
I received an ARC of this story through Netgalley, and this is my unsolicited review.
This book has no harsh cursing (no f-bombs) and no on-page sex. If those things bother you, there’s nothing to worry about here.
While Mistletoe in Mayhem is part of a larger series and it is made much better by reading the first two books, you do not have to do that to enjoy this one, Ms. Rico has added enough background to this duo that it can stand alone. But you *should* read them because they’re excellent books.
This book is so. ridiculously. awesome. There are two stories in this one book and both stories are exactly the kind of “couple update” novellas that I craved when Hennesey and Bryan and Jameson and Scott’s (Unca Sock!) stories ended. Ms. Rico’s sense of humor and her ability to turn the utterly ridiculous into the utterly hilarious is fantastic. Although there is drama and angst in both stories, there is also a vast amount of humor, community awesomeness, sweetness, and love – the things that make this series so excellent. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Mayhem is my kind of town and I wish it was real because I’d move there in a hot second.
I really can’t wait for Walker’s hinted-at story and *SPOILERS TO THE END OF PARAGRAPH* I am so impressed by Ms. Rico’s redemption of Win. I knew she could do it, but I loved the way that it happened – it wasn’t some miracle cure or overnight epiphany, and I thought that was really pretty perfect.
I’m so glad we got to see weddings & babies from two of the O’Halloran sisters!! It was like getting to visit old family friends! Novellas like this are some of my favorite ways to escape the real world & LE didn’t disappoint me!
This is the 3rd book in this phenomenal series and is a catch up of the couples from the previous novels. Hennessy and Bryan are getting married despite what a vindictive wedding planner, as well as awaiting their bundles of joy. Jameson and Scott are busy planning their own wedding day. This is a wonderful box set which is fun, entertaining, and a humorous read, which I highly recommend for all.
