MISTLETOE MATCH-UP, book 3

When Lisa Riley comes home for her brother Mark's Christmas Eve wedding, her high school rivalry with his wife Janelle's cousin, Derek Walsh, picks up right where it left off, only this time Derek has the upper hand. Santa bides his time as they battle it out because he's waited a whole year for this mistletoe match-up.

She ignored Derek and smiled at Mark and Janelle. â€œI would love to help.â€

â€œGreat!â€ Janelle exclaimed. She looked from Lisa, to Derek, and back. â€œHey, wouldnâ€™t it be fun if you two had a little contest to see who could raise the most money? Just like old times.â€

Derekâ€™s hands clenched at his side. Great. Just great, Janelle. He waited for Lisa to gleefully pounce at the opportunity to bury him again, only to be surprised by her dismayed expression.

â€œI donâ€™t know if thatâ€™s such a good idea,â€ she said.

He should be relieved. Instead, his competitive demon demanded retribution for all the humiliation itâ€™d endured during the old times. Heâ€™d bury her. â€œWhy not?â€ he asked.

Her gaze remained locked on his cousin. â€œNo offense, Janelle, but it seems a little silly. I mean, weâ€™re not in high school anymore.â€

Derek relaxed and fell into their old pattern with ease. â€œWhatâ€™s the matter, Lisa, afraid youâ€™ve lost your magic touch? Are you not up for the challenge?â€

That got her. Her spine stiffened and fire gleamed in her eyes. â€œOf course I am.â€

He fake frowned, nodded his head with understanding, and stage whispered, â€œI get it.â€

â€œGet what?â€

Derek glanced at their captive audience. â€œNothing.â€

She crossed her arms over her chest and glared at him. He valiantly avoided staring at her increased cleavage. It wasnâ€™t so hard with his grandparents and her brother watching. And her silent demand for an answer.

â€œI probably shouldnâ€™t say it now. Not in front of everyone.â€

Lisaâ€™s eyes narrowed. â€œPlease, do enlighten usâ€”all of us.â€ Her condescending sarcasm stroked the blood-thirsty devil on his shoulder. Their audience of respective family members waited in expectation. Grandpa, in particular, appeared to enjoy the exchange immensely. This next part would almost make high school worth it.

Derek shrugged. â€œObviously, itâ€™s me.â€

â€œYou?â€ She infused the single word with an appropriate amount of humorous disbelief and disdain, only she avoided looking him in the eye.

â€œYouâ€™re scared you canâ€™t handle me all grown up.â€
