Can Rudie's graveyard wedding go off without a hitch while there's a Christmas thief on the loose in Holiday Haven?
Hard-working witch, Rudie Hollybrook, is facing a snowstorm of duties, from planning her cemetery wedding and directing the family funeral home, to chairing the local volunteer group.
All while the mysterious Christmas Thief is burglarizing local businesses.
So the last thing she needs, is to stumble upon a dead body, days before her Yuletide wedding to the love of her life. And when the murdered man's ghost charges her with a last message for his wife, Rudie adds another task to her never-ending to-do list: catch the murderous thief before they ruin Christmas for the whole town.
But the pressures mount with wedding demands from cranky distant relatives, a last-minute funeral to plan, and an increasingly bold thief, who's now targeting a run-down orphanage.
Can Rudie pull off the wedding of her dreams and save Christmas for quaint Holiday Haven? Or will the thief steal not only the holiday joy, but also another life?
Mistletoe Mojo is a clean, cozy mystery and the stand-alone third book, following Cocoa Curses and Solstice Spirits. These books can be read along with, or separate from, the other books in the Winter Witches of Holiday Haven series, and in any order.
Mistletoe Mojo by Erin Johnson is all about Rudie and Archer’s wedding! It was an adorable read.
Who is the Christmas Thief? And why would they kill someone?
Rudie Hollybrook
Rudie Hollybrook is getting married to the love of her life in Archer, and it’s just so cute that they are getting married on Yule. She is still a fantastic businesswoman who wants to have a beautiful wedding at the location she and Archer want. Rudie is working at her charity that is helping out an orphanage. I love everything about Rudie throughout this whole story. However, she tries to please everyone while not wanting to please them but doesn’t know how to say no. Not only that, but I do like how she decided to find out who killed the victim. Rudie is a force to be reckoned with once she sets her mind on something, whether it be for her wedding or solving a murder.
The Mystery
The mystery that Rudie stumbles into is at the orphanage. One of the wardens was making his rounds to make sure all the kids were asleep and ended up getting killed. Of course, Rudie and one of her sisters find the body. I have to say that I fell for the red herring, but I also had another suspect in the back of my mind the whole time. That other suspect happened to be it. I was surprised at the motive for the other suspect, though, and I hope the orphans get better-taken care of this time around.
Five Stars
Mistletoe Mojo by Erin Johnson is a cute Christmas-themed holiday book that has not only a mystery but a wedding on Yule which also happens to be Christmas. Ms. Johnson did a fabulous job on this book and had me guessing from the moment the dead body was found to the killer revealing themself. I am giving this book five stars and recommending it to all you cozy paranormal holiday mystery lovers out there. I love coming back to Holiday Haven. It is such a fantastic place.
