Introduction ~ Sharon Sala
Mistletoe and Magick ~ Ruth A. Casie
After a year of searching, Maximilian, the druid Grand Master, finds
the sacred mistletoe destined for his soul mate shriveled and dead. He
must journey to the Otherworld and tell the Ancestors of his failure.
Ellyn of Brodgar is an exceptional healer. But each healing kiss
depletes her energy and brings her closer to death. Ellyn needs to find
her own healing power before it’s too late.
Max and Ellyn are tossed into the Otherworld and have until the
third sunset to appeal to the Ancestors or be lost forever. Together
they find love, and as the last rays of the third sunset slip away, both
are willing to sacrifice their hopes, dreams, and lives for the other.
Do they have what it takes to escape the Otherworld and begin their life
together?
Christmas Spirits ~ Lita Harris
Another Christmas keeps Emily Chadwick busy in the kitchen until her
granddaughter discovers an ornament that has been hidden away along
with memories from her grandmother’s past. Emily opens her heart and
tells her granddaughter about the grandfather she never knew. This
Christmas brings something a bit more special than cookies.
Granting Her Wish ~ Emma Kaye
Danielle Thiessen has nothing when she’s tossed back in time to the
1960s, not even her memory. Nothing seems right, except how she feels in
the arms of the handsome soldier who comes to her rescue.
Vietnam veteran Lee Russell is struggling to return to civilian life
in a society that reviles him for serving his country. He no longer
feels at home, except when holding Danielle in his arms.
She doesn’t belong in his time and he doesn’t belong back home. Could they belong to each other?
Letter From St. Nick ~ Nicole S. Patrick
Thad Sinclair is at a crossroads, but when he receives a letter
informing him of an inheritance, the conditions force him to rethink his
life’s course. Will this war-hardened US Marine finally find a place he
can call home?
Scarlet Madison’s idea of a real Christmas can possibly come true
this holiday. She just needs to prove that she can stand on her own two
feet and save her gallery in the process. Can she realize anything is
possible with unconditional support and love, no matter where it comes
from?
An unexpected gift may lead Thad’s and Scarlet’s hearts to the same place.
Secret Santa ~ Julie Rowe
A nurse grieving the death of her twin brother receives an unusual
gift at the staff Secret Santa party: the bullet that killed him and a
message of hope and love.
Review:
What I loved most about this collection was that it truly was diverse. You have Mistletoe and Magic by Ruth A. Casie that's fantasy, then you have a delight, heartwarming story from Lita Harris, and even a time travel romance from Emma Kaye. Each of the five stories in the collection offers a different feel for the Christmas season. If you're looking for a book to get you in the holiday spirit, I highly recommend this one!
