Love is in the air in Reindeer Ridge as four female shop owners celebrate the season.

Meredith Aikman is struggling as the newly elected mayor of Reindeer Ridge. She beat out her childhood friend Christopher Shepard for the job, so she's working extra hard to prove that voters made the right choice. But nobody warned her how complicated planning the town's Christmas festivals would be.

As former mayor, Christopher should want Meredith to fail. But he's secretly loved her since the first time he saw her in second grade, even if she never loved him back. When the opportunity arises to help her out, he can't resist.

The more time Meredith spends with Christopher, the more she realizes she might have misjudged him. Maybe he's not the heartbreaker she always thought he was. Maybe she should start seeing him as more than a friend.

The Reindeer Ridge series is a sweet, clean contemporary Christmas series filled with swoon-worthy heroes and a small-town setting.

Reindeer Ridge town has a new major, Meredith Aikman. Meredith is trying to prove herself to the town. However, she is drowning in Christmas preparations for the yearly festival. She knows she is running out of time. Then, she crashes into the prior major Christopher Shepard whom she has known all her life, and despite having run against him, he is willing to help her out.

Christopher has always cared for Meredith. You could say he had a crush on her since high school. Now as an adult, he wishes they could be more. He wants to help her succeed and as a bonus, he could spend more time with her in the process.

Really cute Christmas story. Love Christopher. He was a sweetheart.

Cute and very short story of a couple who grew up as friends. Meredith is the current mayor of Reindeer Ridge and Christopher is the previous mayor. They grew apart as friends because of miscommunication. Will they be able to put aside whatever issues that separated them to make the Christmas festival a success and discover they work better together?

Cute Story

This is a cute story where Meredith and Christopher find themselves working together. As they do, it causes them to re-evaluate misconceptions from the past to see things in a different light and possibly find love.

Sweet story

A fun, sweet and quick read. All the things that make a good Christmas story. Fun characters in an adorable, Hallmark-worthy small town - complete with peppermint hot chocolate!

Christopher and Meredith

I love Christmas romance stories. Each one I read fills me with sugar-plum-like warm fuzzies. It took Meredith 19 years to realize that she was in love with Christopher. Wow. That's a lot of missed opportunities for kissing!!! Lol!

Peppermint Kisses by Macie St. James – She may have beaten him in the mayoral race, but she is going to land on her face at the Christmas festival without a miracle. Good thing the former mayor needs an excuse to spend a little extra time with her! Happy Holiday Reading!

I absolutely loved reading this. It was such a sweet read! How two people come together in a very interesting and random way. Who knew an accident could lead the two characters in a very unexpected way.

Cute Christmas romance

I saw a friend in Goodreads had read this and really liked it, and since I am a sucker for Christmas romances, I decided to read it and am glad I did!

What I liked most was that the main characters had grown up together and had an established friendship that has always been ready to move in to a relationship if only Meredith could take that step. Christopher has always been waiting for her to.

If you're looking for a quick, sweet romance to read in under an hour, this is the perfect read..
