After Midnight: A Holiday Novella
by Serena Bell
Two strangers. A midnight kiss. It’s just like a fairy tale … if they can find their way to happily ever after …
When Miles Shepard sees gorgeous Nora Hart across a crowded room on New Year’s Eve, he leaps at the chance to steal a super-sexy kiss at midnight. Then he flees the party without swapping numbers with her. He’s ready to put this year in his rearview mirror—and the last thing he needs are complications.
But he hasn’t reckoned on Nora. Despite her own miserable year, she can’t forget Miles’s kiss—and she won’t quit till she tracks down her mystery man. Miles can’t deny the force of their attraction—even as he wrestles with how much to tell her about the trouble he’s in.
Putting their painful pasts behind them won’t be easy. But if they can face their doubts boldly, they might just get a second chance to start the year in each other’s arms.
Momma Says: 4 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐
A great connection. An impulsive act. A really fun meet cute romance with terrific chemistry, witty conversations, and some steamy fun. The story does have some angst, but it's pretty low, making this engaging romance a great bit of escapism, especially with the busy holidays coming up. Both Miles and Nora are likable characters that you can't help but want good things for, and if those good things happen to involve them being a couple, so much the better. I will say that it is totally not fair of Serena Bell to mention Sweet Caroline because - well, it's Sweet Caroline, and now I've been singing it in my head for the past two days! That aside, or maybe even that included, After Midnight is a thoroughly charming romance that left me with a smile.
