1) Mass Market Paperback Book A Historical Christmas Present (Love Spell Historical Romance) by Love Spell. I thought this was a new anthology of stories for Christmas. I was disappointed to see that the Lisa Kleypas story was one I had read a long time ago. I wish they would be more upfront about remakes, recompilations, and republished in new format works. I loathe the sneaky marketing. It makes me far more hesitant to make further purchases by the publishing company or the author.¤ 2) Mass Market Paperback Book A Historical Christmas Present (Love Spell Historical Romance) by Love Spell. From the back cover-
I Will by Lisa Kleypas
When a Georgian bluestocking is propositioned by a rakish noble, she finds the unlikely deal he proposes is the gift of a life time.
5 stars -One of my favorite Kleypas stories. Andrew, Lord Drake, is the drunken dissolute half brother to Logan Scott Because You´re Mine. Their father is dying. In order to get back into the will Andrew must prove he has transformed his scandalous ways. So comes about a sham engagement to the morally upright Miss Caroline Hargreaves. Fantastic novella, not surprising that this won a Rita. Great characters, captivating writing, unpredictable plot and a swoon-worthy romance. The same novella has also been published previously in Wish List.
Three French Hens by Lynsay Sands
A twelfth-century scullion gets a chance to play a lady´s maid -and win the true love of an impoverished lord.
4 stars -Brinna, a scullery maid, is called upon to help Lady Joan avoid marriage to an poor lord. Brinna masquerades as the other woman. Soon she find herself falling in love with Royce who desperately needs a substantial dower to help his people. Too bad Brinna is the wrong woman -or is she? Very good short story but not humorous like many of Sands other ones. I thought the ending was a far fetched but I guess thats in keeping with the feel good Christmas theme. Also published in Five Gold Rings.
Father Christmas by Leigh Greenwood
Delivering a young widow´s baby during the holiday season transforms the heart of a lonely drifter in the nineteenth-century Arizona Territory.
5 stars -Joe Ryan is a wanted man. He shows up at his dead partner´s ranch looking for the hidden gold, not only for the riches but to clear his good name. What he finds at the run down place is the man´s pregnant widow and her step daughter. While searching for the lute lonely Joe can´t help but lend a hand to the desperate woman and child who have captured his heart. Wonderful! Everything you could want in a holiday story including the cutesy little girl. The classic Christmas cliche of a loner finding a home -and a family- for the holidays. Also published in Their First Noel.
Can´t go wrong with this anthology, good stories at a great price.¤ Page Updated: Robert N. Goolsby, 31-Oct-2008, 050552788X9780505527882, 150-600-630-800-120-8X0-261-8
