Christmas is Coming…Giveaway

It feels like fall has barely arrived but as we near November, I’ve been thinking about my favorite Christmas movies and books. The Hallmark channel is already filled with new and old Christmas movies…I’ve been seeing the images fill my social media feeds.

Honestly, it’s rather startling to think that in two months Christmas will already be behind us. This year has flown by and ready or not, the Christmas books are releasing. Several have dropped on my Kindle this month, and I thought I’d share some of them with you in today in case you’re ready to start sliding into holiday cheer through a good book or novella collection.

Is reading Christmas books one way that you get ready for the season? If so, then you’ll enjoy these!

Be sure to read to the end to enter for a paper copy of Christmas in Mistletoe Square!

In It’s a wonderful Christmas, five authors have come together to reimagine their favorite Chirstmas movies.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! To celebrate, five bestselling authors have joined together to create this enchanting set of holiday novellas.

Nothing jump-starts Christmas nostalgia quite like the movies. With stirring images of snow-covered hills, crackling fireplaces, and happy families gathered around the decorated tree, these silver-screen tales capture all the magic and wonder of the season. Inspired by some of their favorite holiday films, each of these novelists has paid homage to the classic stories we all love, crafting an eclectic collection that delivers something for everyone.

My friend Ashley Clark has created a novella that ties to her popular novels in Christmas at the Inn.

Fairhope, Alabama. 1952. Take a trip to Millie’s Boardinghouse this Christmas…

When Walter and Violet fake a relationship for the sake of their families, they find themselves in a surprising situation under the mistletoe thanks to Millie, the inn’s owner.

But just as sparks begin to fly and Walter prepares to confess his feelings, he gets news from his family that will have both he and Violet reevaluating what they really want this Christmas… and for their future.

Fans of The Dress Shop on King Street will enjoy this sweet, historical romance set during Millie’s first Christmas as a mother.

Unpacking Christmas releases November 1 from my friend Beth Vogt. She returns to the Thatcher Sisters from her latest series and has crafted a story that will grab your heart. As Johanna, Jillian, and Payton look forward to celebrating the Christmas holidays with their families, they’re not prepared for an announcement that changes everything they’ve grown to love and cherish.

Their parents are selling their long-time family home. One change seems to lead to another, with Payton and Zach announcing their own decision to move, while Jillian and Geoff tackle the challenge of starting a family. The only ones maintaining the status quo are Johanna and Beckett—but romantic limbo is no place to be. Then their dad’s sudden health crisis spins life further out of control.

Instead of putting up holiday lights and decorating the family Christmas tree, the Thatcher sisters are helping pack up their childhood home. Along the way, they share treasured memories, try to hold onto valued traditions, discovering the struggles they’ve endured pale in comparison to the love they share with each other.

This Christmas, Johanna, Jillian, and Payton will laugh and cry together as they realize the true magic of Christmas isn’t found in gifts or decorations, but in the love of family.

Christmas in Mistletoe Square is the collection I’m a part of. It was such fun to write…and the other three authors are so talented. Christmas is in the air in Kedgewick Creek, North Carolina, at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Will romance find four couples in the month of December or will the pressure to keep the festivities Mistletoe Square is known for keep these couples apart? Find out in this collection of four novellas from inspirational authors Pepper Basham, Cara Putman, Janine Rosche, and Teresa Tysinger.
