Although Sarah thinks her situation can't get any worse, she arrives to find her aunt recuperating from a broken ankle and Sarah is forced to run her aunt's carolling business. Sarah finds herself drawn to the widower next door, Joe. Will Joe show Sarah how to find joy in the season? Christmas of the Red Chiefs by Linda Lael Miller is a great opener to this terrific anthology! Heart-warmingly romantic with a satisfying ending, Christmas of the Red Chiefs put me into the Christmas frame of mind. Once Upon a Christmas by Catherine Mulvany Hailey and Thomas missed their chance at romance as teenagers. Now that they are all grown up, the pair lead separate lives. With some angelic help, Hailey and Thomas are brought together for Christmas. Given this second chance, will Hailey and Thomas find happiness together? In Once Upon a Christmas Catherine Mulvany crafts a tale that appeals to my romantic heart. I love second chances. This was one of my favorite stories in the anthology. Once Upon a Christmas has plenty of romance and Christmas spirit! Meltdown by Julie Leto Isabel Ruiz is charged with the task to thaw out the image of CEO Simon Brennan. Little does Isabel know, whenever Simon thinks of her, frost is the furtherest thing from his mind. Simon finds the PR whiz sultry and exciting. With the help of some Christmas magic, can Isabel and Simon's working relationship develop into love? Julie Leto's Meltdown is a wiggle worthy read! Hot Hot Hot! I loved the chemistry between Simon and Isabel and their love story. With plenty of Christmas magic, Meltdown is a great addition to this holiday anthology. You Can Count On Me by Roxanne St. Claire Raquel Durant is excited by her first assignment as a bodyguard. Assigned to protect the child of Grigori Nyekovic during the Christmas holiday, Raquel arrives in New York excited by the opportunity to prove herself. Although Raquel finds Grigori very sexy, she works hard to maintain her professionalism. The attraction is mutal, however. When a priceless antique is stolen, Raquel and Grigori work together to recover it. As the danger escalates, so does the sexual tension. You Can Count On Me wraps up this anthology brilliantly! Steamy, sexy and full of suspense, Roxanne St. Claire has written an awesome Christmas thriller. Fans of the Bullet Catcher series will love You Can Count On Me.

Heartstopping Christmas Heros

Christmas and romance...what a wonderful combination. The stories in "I'll Be Home for Christmas" go beyond the usual hearth and home variety and are sure to warm you to your toes. I enjoyed them all. Linda Lael Miller's "Christmas of the Red Chiefs" has a traditional tone and an endearing family atmosphere. Joe Courtland is a real keeper. Catherine Mulvany's "Once upon a Christmas" is a magical, flirty tale. My favorite stories, though, are Julie Leto's "Meltdown" and Roxanne St Claire's "You Can Count On Me." The sexy, exotic characters are absolutely scrumptious. Plus, St Claire adds a tingling thrill to the Christmas season with a fabulous New York setting, a gorgeous, passionate foreigner, and a bullet catcher heroine. (I've been anticipating the arrival of a female bodyguard, and I wasn't disappointed) Overall, this is a fun read that's definitely a terrific jump-start to the holiday season.
