A Bright Red Ribbon Fern Michaels
Being dumped by your boyfriend on Christmas Eve has got to be the worst. Still, Morgan Ames promised she'd wait two Christmases for his return -- tonight -- and she always keeps her promises. But a sudden snowstorm has other ideas, including a romantic turn Morgan never imagined...
The 24 Days of Christmas Linda Lael Miller
A matchbox advent calendar first brought Frank Rayner and Addie Hutton together. But that was years ago. There's no way the miracles of Christmas -- and the magic of true love -- ﾽcould possibly be hidden under one of its tiny flaps. Or could they?
Santa Unwrapped Theresa Alan
When Aimee Lachaussee offers to drive three volunteer Santas to a children's hospital, she finds herself stranded in a bar with two really obnoxious playboys -- and the quiet, hunky, wheelchair-bound Ryan, who's about to show Aimee that the very best presents come in unexpected packages...
Maybe This Christmas Jane Blackwood
Laura Randall thinks life has passed her by, until a Christmas angel grants her wish to live one, important, destiny-shaping Christmas over. Now that she's got her second chance, can she manage this time to hold on to the love that got away...?
While the weather outside is frightful, unwrap a gift of your own, and delight in these sparkling stories of holiday romance!
FROM THE CRITICS
Library Journal
Abundant holiday spirit and an occasional dash of Christmas magic add zest to this collection of delightful contemporary short romances that run the stylistic gamut from gently cozy to in-your-face sassy, with equally good results. Two tales tap into a growing trend and address disability issues by featuring heroes in wheelchairs (Theresa Alan's "Santa Unwrapped" and Fern Michael's "A Bright Red Ribbon"), while two stories use traditional tried-and-true reunion/second chance scenarios (Linda Lael Miller's "The 24 Days of Christmas"and Jane Blackwood's "Maybe This Christmas"), this time with a sprinkling of angel dust. While the unfortunate insertion of teaser chapters from forthcoming novels after two of the stories breaks the flow of the Christmas mood to an annoying degree, this anthology does offer something for everyone, and most libraries will want to add it to their Christmas lineup.
