First of all, I thought the stories should have been reversed. Beatrix has already had her baby in 'Mistletoe Reunion.'

Mistletoe Reunion (Cheryl St. John) Surprisingly, this St. John story did not 'speak to me.' In fact, I thought it was rather dull.

After ending her engagement, Marlys Boyd went on to become a doctor. She decided to move West, where the pioneer spirit of the people might make them more receptive to the type of physician she had become (Homeopathic).

After moving to Kansas, Dr. Boyd meets her old fiancee again. This was too much of a coincidence to be likely. Sam Mason, now a widower, has a son. Sam is still interested in Marlys but is afraid to chance his heart again.


Mistletoe Bride (Sherri Shackelford) Beatrix Haas is midway into childbirth when the midwife finds someone who can speak German to the frightened and rapidly wearying young Austrian. When Beatrix finds out that her intended husband has died before she could arrive, she is filled with despair. Her grip on life starts to slip.

Blacksmith Colton Werner, realizing the Beatrix will probably die, offers to marry her so her child will have a name. Beatrix accepts gratefully. When Beatrix survives, each partner has to decide what he/she wants. Should they divorce, so each can marry a person of his own choosing?

This story was more engaging than the first one. 3.5 stars
