Christmas at the Easy Breezy by Nora LeDuc
$0.99

Sometimes Christmas brings the unexpected…


All Darcy Malone wants is a loving family. Once she’d had a husband, home, and job she enjoyed. But her husband betrayed it all, and now, in search of her roots, she finds her grandmother in a small New Hampshire town. Except sometimes family isn’t what you expect at all… 


Stranded at the Easy Breezy Diner at Christmastime, Darcy encounters the handsome, occasionally-grumpy owner Leo Holmes whose good looks, hard work, and honesty draw her in. But she’s no longer the pushover she once was. She can't risk another stinging rejection that would slice a hole in her heart and leave her with nothing to offer. 


Leo Holmes finds Darcy attractive and spirited, but he’s already been burned by a pretty woman. He refuses to go down that road again. Yet, with the holiday cheer in full swing, he stops to reconsider. Is this woman who literally crashed into his life worth second look and maybe worth taking a second chance on love?

 

Mistletoe Magic by Linda Wisdom
$3.99

For lovers of Brigadoon here's a Christmas version. Warm-hearted and wonderful.

Quinn was more than ready for a getaway. To avoid her family, friends
and would-be fiancé she sought refuge in the Vermont mountains.

Then the blizzard hit like a freight train.

Santee wasn’t sure what drew him to the snowy east at Christmastime.
And he sure didn’t expect to find the lovely Quinn or a room at the
picturesque Mistletoe Inn.

The charming town of Mistletoe keeps the holiday cheer all year round.
And a glow that envelopes Quinn and Santee gives them something
magical neither expected to find.

The question is, is this merely a wish for the holiday season only or
something that will last forever?

A Sweet Montana Christmas by Roxanne Snopek

Melinda Sweet loved her husband before she learned of his wealth and she loves him still, despite the fact that it’s gone. Unfortunately, while she knows the collapse of his Chicago financial services business had nothing to do with him, he believes otherwise. His upbeat adjustment to their new – and temporary – life on his grandfather’s rundown honey farm is a foil to cover the burden of failure. She wasn’t expecting to throw – in five weeks – the traditional Sweet Christmas Open House, but it’s a good earning opportunity and how hard could it be?

Austin Sweet is determined to make his wife proud of him again. But he also wants to erase the sting of shame he feels from his parents, to whom he owes a debt of gratitude for arranging for this caretaking job. Getting paid to fix up this disaster is better than living in their basement, sure. But what does he know about bees? Or fixing broken plumbing? Or cleaning a chimney?

But when Austin’s grandfather gives him the farm as a Christmas gift, there’s only one response. Accepting the gift will secure a future that will make his wife even more unhappy than he already is. Refusing the gift will finalize the rift between him and his family, but he’d rather lose them than Melinda. Then he discovers she’s spared him the choice. Austin’s not-so-Sweet side rears up as he determines that he’s done trying to make everyone happy. He’ll get his wife back, no matter what. And they’ll decide their future together.
