The Sleight Before Christmas (Holiday Hijinx Series #2)
by Kate Stewart
5 out of 5 stars
Kate Stewart delivers a festive, feel-good romance in The Sleight Before Christmas, a book brimming with humor, heart, and holiday magic. Set against a charming winter backdrop, the story follows two strangers brought together by fate (and a bit of Christmas mischief), leading to unexpected romance and plenty of holiday cheer.
Stewart’s writing is witty, warm, and perfectly paced for a cozy holiday read. The banter is delightful, the characters are endearing, and the romance is sweet with just the right amount of tension. While the plot leans on familiar holiday tropes, the execution is so engaging that it doesn’t feel cliché—it feels like the perfect Christmas movie in book form.
If you love holiday romances that blend humor, romance, and just a little bit of magic, The Sleight Before Christmas is a must-read.
