Snowfall & Mistletoe

Snowed in with the one woman he can't have. 

Gavin's life was orderly and successful—until he fell for the same woman his boss wanted.

When the owner of the company forbids employees from dating, Gavin knows it's just because he doesn't want any competition for Holly's affections.

If it was just his job on the line, Gavin would have shrugged and gone for it, but Holly desperately needs to keep her job to help provide for her sister and niece. Especially with Christmas just around the corner. For now, at least, they must keep their relationship in the friend zone.

But when their boss makes a move to force himself on Holly's attention, Gavin will do anything to protect her. 

He just hadn't counted on the snowstorm moving in early and stranding them together in a remote cabin two days before Christmas. And not just any cabin. Their boss's cabin. 

Surely one kiss won't ruin everything. 

A perfectly sweet Christmas romance that will make you laugh and swoon at the same time. Grab your copy today.

Another Chance for Love

This was a heartfelt read by Ms. Hardy. 

Setting: homeless shelter. A woman trying to keep the place running and a PR guy with a bad rep who needs to shape up his image. Together they can save a small bit of the community. 

Great conflict and motivations in the characters. Lots of good side characters. A fairly quick holiday read.

Marrying Miss Kringle: Robyn

I love the premise of this story. Christmas is at stake unless a daughter gets married to keep the magic intact. 

Poor Robyn. She's been through so much. Lost her boyfriend. Lost out on being Santa. And home is melting. Enter the dating show to find true love and get married by Christmas Eve. We meet all the family and while following Robyn's story pick up bits and pieces of the other sisters stories. It got me excited to read the rest of the series. 

Lots of fun and magic in this Christmas tale. 

AMAZON

Christmas will be ruined…

Robyn Kringle’s sisters make falling in love look easy; but Robyn’s struggled for the last three years.

Club hopping? Not her jam.
Online dating? Like her fruitcake—full of nuts!

With children all over the world counting on stockings full of goodies, Robyn has just two weeks left to find her one true love and save Christmas.

She has a plan.

She’s enlisted help.

But a handsome and scroogie security guard stands in her way.

Take a Cowboy Home for Christmas

 This is a great collection for a holiday read by Ms. Isaacson. Seven stories, I believe all happening at different ranches. So you can get an introductory story into the life at the various locations and then want to go read the series associated with that ranch. A really good marketing technique. 

All the stories are unique, original, and totally satisfying. Ms. Isaacson threads through the inspirational Christianity without being heavy handed or preachy. The focus is on the romance and the how to overcome the obstacles standing in the way of happily ever after. 

A good holiday pick.
