Over the Mistletoe
Rachael didn’t know how her life would change just by looking into a department store window at the wonderful annual Christmas display. How was she to know that very day would be the beginning of a life time romance? The Great Depression was a tragic time in our country's history, but that didn’t stop Stan from courting the pretty girl standing on the sidewalk outside the department store on a snowy day in December, 1939.

Given that Christmas is almost upon us, I felt it was time I read some Christmassy stories – I’m feeling particularly festive this year so I have no rules about it being December before I indulge. Over The Mistletoe seemed to fit the bill perfectly.
Over The Mistletoe is the story of Rachael and Stan. Rachael admires the department store window display on the way home from work one day, when she meets Stan. They form a fast attraction but have to deal with the Depression getting in the way of their ability to date properly.
The story overall was a charming one, in the sense that the relationship between Rachael and Stan was sweet and the Christmas setting was lovely, but I didn’t feel drawn in to the story as I have done with so many others. The story was very short, so not much time was afforded to getting to know either of the characters and the relationship between the two felt very rushed. It was a happy story, and great for an hour’s reading, but I didn’t enjoy the story much – not because of what it was or how it was written, simply because I didn’t get the chance to due to length.
This review is very short, as I feel I don’t have much else to say about the story.
