4 Wonderful Stories!

"Jingle Bells, Wedding Bells" is a great read, containing 4 stories of Christmas wishes and true love. Each story is full of holiday cheer and is sure to lift your spirits any time of the year!First is Nora Roberts' "All I Want for Christmas", my favorite story of the four. Zack and Zeke Taylor, twins just starting first grade, decide to ask Santa Claus for a mom this Christmas. Nell, the new high school music teacher in Taylor Grove seems to fit the bill. Luckily enough, Zeke and Zack's father, Mac, can't stop thinking about Nell. Nell and Mac's relationship is passionate and tender and full of ups and downs. This story is fabulous, and will surely please readers.Next is "A Very Merry Step-Christmas" by Barbara Boswell and it is great! Natalie and Brian meet in detention for being late to school and soon discover their lives are remarkably similar. The two 14-year-olds each have a single parent and three younger siblings. The two schemers decide that Brian's dad, Police Chief Zack Ritter, and Natalie's mom, Claudia Nolan would be perfect for each other. When Claudia and Zack meet, the sparks immediately fly, but Zack refuses to date women with children, and that makes Claudia completely off limits. But fate keeps pulling them together and happiness is within reach, if only they can find the courage to take a risk! This is a lovely, uplifting tale, and my second favorite story in this anthology."Jack's Ornament" by Myrna Temte is an entertaining read. Jack Zorn's life is all about work on the Bar Z Ranch, until beautiful Elizabeth Davies-Smythe arrives to drop off his niece and nephew for a visit. Elizabeth gets snowed in for some time, and has a wonderful time flirting with the ruggedly handsome Jack. The longer Elizabeth stays, the more powerful her feelings for Jack become. Jack too begins falling in love, but he stubbornly believes that the glamorous Elizabeth could never be happy with a simple rancher like him. Will true love triumph? Or will Jack's inflexible views prevent him from finding happiness with Elizabeth?Finally is "The Forever Gift" by Elizabeth August. Abigail Jones has been hiding from her past for years, and has finally settled in a tiny out of the way town called Blye's Stand. When she picks up a young hitchhiker on the way home, she soon discovers that the girl, Rose, is the niece of Abigail's sexy neighbour, Kane Courtland. Two years of avoiding each other is brought to an end for Kane and Abigail, as Rose befriends Abby. Abigail has a powerful reaction to Kane's presence, which she knows will only get her into trouble, but is incredibly hard to ignore. Kane and Abigail become cautious friends, but Abigail knows that before they can take their relationship any further, she must tell Kane about her dark past. Will Kane stand by Abigail? Or will he turn from her like all of her friends before him? This is a truly touching and enjoyable story.Overall, this anthology is lots of fun. It contains 4 well
