Mister Christmas
But Claire definitely didn’t expect to meet Mister Christmas or to have her dreams come true…
Review: I greatly enjoyed this book. It was very Christmassy & a bit thrilling even though the romance was a bit quick and fanciful for me.

The Yellow Rose of Christmas
Review: I didn’t love this. It took a lot for me to get through the set-up of Velvet’s feelings toward men. It ended well and was well written but isn’t for one who dislikes gender discrimination.

Ages: There’s no steam but I can’t honestly recommend this as it’s written.
Nightmare on Elf Street
Review: WOW. We completely switched genres again! This set is making my head spin! 😉
It was cute but sometimes difficult for me to follow.

Room at the Inn
Review: This was absolutely my favorite of all of the novellas. It’s less of a romance and more a women’s fiction but it was so very real & just a perfect ending.
Side note: In this they participate in the tradition of Las Posadas. (“Las Posadas is a procession that takes place for the nine nights before Christmas, ending on Christmas Eve,” Elena said. “It is done in memory of the holy family’s journey to Jerusalem, and their search for a place for Mary to give birth to Jesus. The procession goes from house to house in the neighborhood, singing and praying. At each door they ask for shelter, but are turned away. At the last house, they’re welcomed in for more songs and praying and food and fellowship.”) To me this is one of the most special traditions & I’d love to be a part of it one day!
