Kismet, Michigan # 4
Released Oct 7th, 2014 (Zebra)
In
Kismet, Michigan, Christmas is special: big fluffy snowflakes, sleigh
bells, carolers singing. It’s a picture-perfect holiday—you just
have to choose who’s in the frame…
Jason
Hamilton is on thin ice with the board of his toy company. The young
CEO may be a kid at heart, but his party boy reputation requires
damage control. So Jason’s off to Kismet to inspect a model store,
stay on Santa’s Nice list, and stick to business—no goofing
around. Which is too bad, because the store manager, Danielle Sharpe,
is the definition of what makes Naughty fun…
Danielle
is thrilled to show off her thriving little toy store—especially if
it’s her ticket out of Kismet. The single mom is tired of
manufacturing cheer solo while her ex-husband has all the fun. But if
she’d known Jason was this hot, she wouldn’t have offered to host
him. With Jason in her house, Danielle is getting warmer than spiked
cider. She’s supposed to impress him with her expertise, not
daydream about catching him under the mistletoe. Now whatever she
does, she can’t get swept up in the magic…

CHRISTMAS LIKE THE PRESENT by Sierra Donovan
Lindsay
Miller is knee-deep in Christmas cards and homemade fudge, but she’s
never felt more like a Grinch. Why can’t Christmas be full of
magic, like in her favorite movie, A
Christmas Carol…?
…Enter
Fred, a sexy and eccentric stranger who arrives at Lindsay’s door
out of the blue. Dressed like he just stepped out of a Dickens novel,
complete with British accent, Fred claims he’s a Messenger, sent
from “Headquarters” to help her discover the joy of Christmas.
But is Fred an angel from above—or just stone cold crazy?
Fred’s
used to dealing with skeptics. Telling a stranger you’ve been
ordered to inspire holiday cheer is a tough sell. But there’s a
further complication. Fred’s mission is to help Lindsay right the
wrongs from her past that have been holding her back. But somehow
along the way, they’ve become wildly attracted to each other—and
falling in love is not
part of the plan. Fred only has ‘til the stroke of midnight on
Christmas Eve to guide Lindsay to the magical future she
deserves—even if it’s a future without him…

CHRISTMAS
IN COWBOY COUNTRY by Janet Dailey
The greatest gift is love…
Ski
instructor Annie Bennett doesn’t have time to miss the twinkling
lights and holiday parties in Aspen and Vail. With her older brothers
gone and winter just around the corner, her parents need help with
their sprawling Colorado ranch. The most wonderful time of the year
isn’t always easy for a lot of the folks in their town, but Annie
does her best—until the tall, dark, and rugged surveyor on their
neighbor’s land becomes a potent distraction…
Wyoming
born and bred, Marshall Stone is a practical man. But there’s
something about Annie that’s as wild and sweet as the mountain
wind. He doesn’t want to tame her. Just love her. Annie Bennett is
all he wants for Christmas. And for always. But she’s too wary to
believe he means it. Until he takes her in his arms and explains
without saying a single word…

Now
that they’ve happily married off two of their grandchildren, Anna
and Felty Helmuth are ready for their next matchmaking challenge.
What better way to celebrate the most heartwarming of seasons—and
make Huckleberry Hill, Wisconsin, the place for unexpected love…
A
difficult marriage has left the Helmuths’ widowed
great-granddaughter, Beth, finished with wedlock. She’s content to
live with them and make a life for herself and her toddler son. But
once she turns down handsome Tyler Yoder’s proposal, it seems only
fair to encourage him to find a suitable wife. Trouble is, his
gentleness and generous ways are showing her how joyous a real
meeting of hearts can be. . .
After
a failed courtship, Tyler thought the best he could hope for in a
wife was mere companionship. But spirited Beth is the one he longs to
protect, and hold close. Earning her trust is the hardest thing he’s
ever had to do. And soon, both will discover that forgiveness and
understanding are gifts that only rekindled faith—along with the
happiest of holidays—can bring.

A Tourist Trap Mystery # 3
The
tourist town of South Cove, California, is a lovely place to spend
the holidays. But this year, shop owner Jill Gardner discovers
there’s no place like home for homicide…
As
owner of Coffee, Books, and More, Jill Gardner looks forward to the
hustle and bustle of holiday shoppers. But when the mayor ropes her
into being liaison for a new work program, ‘tis the season to be
wary. Local businesses are afraid the interns will be delinquents,
punks, or worse. For Jill, nothing’s worse than Ted Hendricks—the
jerk who runs the program. After a few run-ins, Jill’s ready to
kill the guy. That, however, turns out to be unnecessary when she
finds Ted in his car—dead as a doornail. Detective Greg King
assumes it’s a suicide. Jill thinks it’s murder. And if the
holidays weren’t stressful enough, a spoiled blonde wants to sue
the city for breaking her heel. Jill has to act fast to solve this
mess—before the other shoe drops…
