About the book:
The Christmas
Honeymoon
Quiet librarian Serena
always loved Christmas, until she was jilted before her December wedding. A
year later, while trying to rekindle her tarnished holiday spirit, she meets
Damien, handsome daredevil--and a total Scrooge. Their unlikely mutual attraction
brings on a challenge that leads to one very romantic Christmas.
Be Mine for Christmas
Single mom Ellie is
lonely and struggling to find a job. She takes her little boy to a Christmas
tree farm to see Santa and runs head on into a blue-eyed Viking with a winsome
smile. Reece opened his Christmas tree farm after the accident that nearly took
his life. But it left him with the vision of a woman who would heal his heart.
The Christmas Wedding
Cake
Natalie and Shane were
inseparable sweethearts until a pair of mysterious emails tore them apart.
Years later they meet again on a reality TV cooking show--and it's more than
the oven that gets cooking.
His Christmas Promise
A stray dog with a
penchant for giving warm and fuzzy love finds refuge with an ex-Army helicopter
pilot and helps restore his grandmother's will to live. It seems like a
Christmas miracle until the bachelor war vet discovers the mutt belongs to a
little girl who wants him back--and a single mom who makes him rethink his
freewheeling ways and maybe even believe in love.

The review --
This is a wonderful
box set, by one of my favorite authors. Two of these I had read before, but it
was fun to read them again; and two were new to me and I hadn't read them
before. A lot of her stories take place in a fictional community, so there are
familiar characters in the books, familiar places. This box set is no
exception. If you're searching for a fun Christmas romance reading, then it
doesn't get much better than this box set.
I love all the books
in this set, they are tons of fun to read. Great characters and stories in each
one, and they all share a common setting. So it's like reading about the people
from one community.
