Review: Buckshot & Mistletoe by Reese Knightley 4 of 5 stars

Buckshot & Mistletoe










Buckshot & Mistletoe by Reese Knightley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

On Christmas Eve, a blizzard blankets Shadowfell Ranch, where former government operatives gather for an unusual mission: holiday peace. Amid decorations, dinner, and laughter, they discover warmth and found family in the quiet they never thought they deserved. Yet danger lingers—old instincts resurface when alarms cut through the storm, reminding them that their pasts are never far behind.

I enjoyed this holiday short story, set in the Genesis world, which was a meditation on redemption, belonging, and the fragile balance between violence and peace. I liked how the blizzard isolated them, forcing them inward, both physically (inside the ranch) and emotionally (into reflection). I also loved that the story explored how warriors scarred by violence navigate the tension between instinct and intimacy, finding redemption in loyalty, love, and the fragile sanctuary of found family. This was an MM story.
