"The Christmas Catch" by Ginny Baird

Book Description....

A new Christmas novella by bestselling author Ginny Baird...
Book #1 in Ginny's Holiday Brides novella series.

Since the death of her military husband two years ago, single mom Christine White has struggled to get by. By throwing herself into her work as a Chicago copywriter, she's managed to keep food on the table but has gradually lost sight of what really matters, like building a bond with her four-year-old son. When Christine's best friend insists she spend Christmas in Vermont so she can get her life in order, Christine initially resists. Little does she know she's in for a memorable holiday that will reignite her faith and reawaken her heart.

Bachelor professor John Steadman has given up on finding the right one. Spending time with his friends while keeping up with his job seems satisfying enough. Then one day close to Christmas, a beautiful woman from Chicago nearly runs him off the road during a snowstorm. What's more, she's got a kid in her car. It's only natural that John and his trusty golden retriever want to help drag them out of a ditch and steer them toward their destination. What John doesn't expect is that soon he'll be hoping Christine and her son will be staying in Vermont - for more than just a little while.

What I enjoyed about this read...

This was one good short novella that was full of all of it...humor, holiday spirit, romance, a mother's love, even sex to getting the love you want. This author really works her magic with this well written story line and oh my god... what a cast of characters. that gives the reader such a good detailed story for the readers. This was truly John and Christine's wonderful sweet romance story that once you start reading this novel one will find it hard to put down until the end as it will leave you with a warmed heart having read such a holiday Christmas story.

Review:

"Hot Christmas Nights" by Farrah Rochon, Terra Little and Velvet Carter

Book Description....Three novellas...

"Baby it's cold outside, so stay warm with three sexy and sizzling-hot holiday stories.

TUSCAN NIGHTS by FARRAH ROCHON

It's not the breathtaking scenery that brings Aiden Williams to Italy for Christmas; it's gorgeous pastry chef Nyla Thompson. Five years ago Aiden's older brother was fool enough to let Nyla go. Now a mature and sexy Aiden is determined to turn their Italian fling into everlasting amore.

CHRISTMAS TANGO by TERRA LITTLEProfessional dancer Wendy Kincaid thinks she knows her best friend, Frazier Abernathy, inside out. But he's got a season of surprises in store for the woman he's always desired, leading to a sensual rendezvous where he'll raise the stakes in an all-out merry seduction…

TIED UP IN TINSEL by VELVET CARTER

Entertainment agent Landis Keates is stunned to learn that his old college classmate is now an international singing sensation! Back then, he was too clueless to notice Brooke Lynn Samuels. Now a friend's winter wedding in picturesque Bridgehampton is the perfect backdrop to a very intimate Yuletide reunion."

What I liked about the novel that contained all three novellas.....

These were some very interesting holiday anthologies. After reading them all... I did liked all of them. I enjoyed how each other was able to share a romantic story all during the holiday season.

The first novella by author Farrah Rochon's Tuscan Nights ...was a nice story of a love that had been there for Aiden and Nyla but would she be able to leave the past behind and start anew "Whether it's in Atlanta, or Tuscany, or on the moon." All Aiden wanted for Nyla was for her to be 'Happy.' To find out what all of that storyline is about you will have to pick up the sweet romantic holiday read.

Next...

We have Christmas Tango by Terra Little.. with her heroine being a dancer. Wendy Elizabeth Kincaid was owner of the Wendy Kincaid Dance Studio...but didn't Wendy want to have a professional choreography career with a world renowned dance company with The Greeley Dance Company? However, wasn't Wendy truly happy at running her own little dance studio and being her own boss? What happens when Wendy starts to receive several delivers to the studio(from a secret admirer)...and then one by a special messenger inviting her to dinner? Would she be able to tell her best friend Frazier about all of this? No...he would think she was crazy wanting to meet this person! Who was this secret admirer? Now, who do you think showed up to the dinner? As the story will go on we find Wendy will have to make some very important decisions in her life. Will Wendy get the Christmas Tango she wants...dancing and ... ? This is where I say you must pick up the sweet romance to see how this author will bring it out to the reader. I did like the ending. It was a good holiday read that I would recommend.

and last we have...

We have 'Tied Up in Tinsel by Velvet Carter... What will happen when Brooklyn is discovered by Landis? Back in college she was just 'Brooke Lynn Samuels but now Wow is how Landis feels after meeting her at their best friends wedding. Will something come of this? Will there be a problem that will enter into the picture? YES! I found this interesting but somewhat predictable but still a good sweet holiday read that I would still recommend.

A Christmas Story: Behind the Scenes of a Holiday Classic
A Christmas Story: Behind the Scenes of a Holiday Classic - Caseen Gaines,Wil Wheaton,Eugene B. Bergmann

Nothing makes the holidays better than meatloaf, leg lamps, BB guns, and bullies! In Caseen Gaines newest pop culture book, A Christmas Story: Behind the Scenes of a Holiday Classic, readers are given a special tour of one of America’s favorite classic movies from the early eighties. Gaines adventure starts when he pulls up to the once house and now museum, of the one and only, Ralphie Parker. And this is where the adventure begins. A gift shop across the street, two massive buildings housing memorabilia, and the actual house used during the filming, complete with the nostalgic leg lamp! Gaines wanted to do more than just retell a story. He wanted to give readers the history behind it, insight into the characters, filming, and every in and out, he could acquire.

 

“…after seeing the other tourists get out of their cars without forking over some green, Josh and I began to feel we had overpaid for what should have been free parking.”
