SummaryBeneath the Mistletoe by Charlotte
Featherstone: Holly Nightingale is a woman who has
forgotten the true meaning of Christmas. It's been eight
years since the man she thought loved her left her without
a word after kissing her passionately beneath the
mistletoe.
Andrew Carlyle has made his fortune in India and returned
to England to claim the woman he has always wanted. But
the Holly he knew is gone. In her place is a stranger with
a delectably curvaceous body he can't stop desiring, and a
steely resolve he hopes to breach. And he will, especially
with the help of Holly's great-grandmother--The Grand
Dame, not to mention his persuasive skill with the
mistletoe.
A Bluestocking Christmas by Monica Burns: Miss
Ivy Beecham is a bluestocking who has sworn off love, and
she's found the perfect place to hide--a library. Simon
Carton, Viscount Wycombe, is an intellectual rogue who's
convinced all women can be bought.
What neither of them counted on was finding love amid a
stack of dusty books. Determined to win the reluctant
bluestocking nymph, Simon seduces Ivy with words and other
sinful pleasures. But despite the passion between them,
Ivy refuses to risk her heart--at least not until the
ghost of her ancestor visits her on Christmas Eve and
helps Ivy see that her choices will affect the rest of her
life. The question is, will Ivy make the right choice?
A Kind of Magic by Monica Burns and Charlotte
Featherstone: Christmas for thirty year old
romance writer, Julia Taylor is just plain not worth it.
The excitement that used to surround Julia during the
holidays has been replaced with a cool cynicism. The magic
is gone. Faced with the loss of her publishing contract if
she doesn't produce a blockbuster romance novel for her
editor, she heads for Harrow Lodge, the home of her
ancestor, the Grand Dame, in England. To finance her trip,
she pawns a treasured heirloom that's been in the family
even longer than Harrow Lodge. But the ghost of the Grand
Dame has something else in store for Julia.
Brock Maitland is not quite alive, nor is he dead. He's in
that insufferable space, hovering on the brink of either
state. Brock only has one chance to find his soul mate and
make her love him, thus returning him to a mortal state.
Now all he has left to do is convince Julia, the uptight,
spinster romance author, that the magic she creates in her
books can be found between them.
