What happens under the kissing bough doesn't
necessarily stay beneath the kissing bough...
According to lore, the origins of which date to the
late 12th century, no lady should refuse a kiss beneath the mistletoe, else she
will not marry in the next year. In exchange for the kiss, a berry is removed
from the sprig until all of the berries are gone and no more kisses can be
stolen. Some also believe that a sprig of mistletoe collected from a local
church and placed beneath a maiden's pillow will inspire dreams of her future
husband.
What happens when fifteen daring heroines pin their
hopes on mistletoe, a little luck, and a kiss in this multi-genre, limited
edition holiday collection from 15 bestselling authors? Pure holiday magic!
This set includes USA TODAY bestselling and National
bestselling authors Sandy Blair, Suzanne Ferrell, Kathryn Le Veque, Jeanne
Adams, Anna Campbell, Tina De Salvo, Barbara Devlin, Joan Kayse, Catherine
Kean, Anna Markland, Hildie McQueen, Meara Platt, Elizabeth Rose, Jordan K.
Rose, and Lana Williams.
HOLD
ME, THRILL ME, KISS ME BY BARBARA DEVLIN:
A once great love
Sold into marriage at sixteen, widowed at nineteen,
and mired in a scandal of her own making at twenty-two, Lady Moreton has fallen
on hard times. Alone, shunned by society, and on the verge of
homelessness, she desperately searches for salvation. When Almira
receives an intriguing invitation to join one of England’s most respected
families for Christmas, she clings to hope, to the possibility of rescue, and
packs her best gowns.
Two broken hearts
Heir to a tarnished title, Lord Nicholas Sheldon seeks
to right the wrongs of his past, after his father is found floating in the
Thames, and his younger brother faces trial for kidnapping a high-ranking
member of the peerage. In exchange for evidence in support of the Crown’s
charges, Nicholas wants only one thing: the beautiful woman who stole his
heart, so long ago. Pinning his hopes on a kiss beneath the kissing
bough, he enlists the aid of his onetime enemies, journeys to Portsea Island,
and risks everything for a chance at happiness.
HUNT
FOR CHRISTMAS BY TINA DeSALVO:
Traditions, mistletoe kisses and second chances…
The Cajun Christmas on the Bayou Celebration is
an annual event in the remote town of Fa La, Louisiana, nicknamed – Fa La La.
It has supported generations of the families who live in the tiny, isolated
bayou community. This year may be the last. Thanks to Hunter James who bought
the neighboring island, they can no longer use his land for a major part of the
celebration. The island is his home where he expects to find much needed
peace and quiet. He doesn’t want Christmas lights, music and revelers on
his land no matter what Fa La La’s beautiful advocate, Dr. Camille Comeaux,
says as she tries to change his mind…and changes his heart.
Will Camille fight to steal Hunter’s peace so her
family can have theirs?
HER
VAMPIRE PROTECTOR BY JORDAN K. ROSE:
If someone has to die in order to save the citizens of
Central City from the heinous experiments of Panthera Laboratories, Oswald
Addison would gladly volunteer. But a three-hundred-year-old vampire should
never have to choose between dying to save those he has sworn to protect or
living with the knowledge he is responsible for their doomed
existence—especially when the life of the woman he loves is at stake.
For Selene Kittery, having to hold her own in the
male-dominated Vampire Guard is enough of a challenge. With Christmas right
around the corner and mistletoe hanging in doorways, controlling the impulse to
fall into the arms of the sexiest womanizer to walk the earth makes getting
through every night damn near impossible. As the iron-clad grip she’s kept on
her dignity weakens, Selene must face the truth about Oz.
Realizing Selene is Panthera’s next target, Oz is
forced to share the secret about what happened on the night they met and risk
losing her forever.
Thank you for featuring our wonder Christmas collection! I had a blast drawing on scenes of Christmas boat parades, traditional Cajun food and culture to inspire my story, Hunt for Christmas. Love your blog!
