The Oblivious Girl’s Handbook by DelSheree Gladden


Being oblivious to all the signs that your life is about to fall apart doesn’t stop it from happening to Sara Taylor. Alone except for the Siamese cat her boyfriend left behind to teach her a lesson, Sara has no clue how to survive on her own. She knows her friend Monroe would gladly step in, but pride forces her to either sink or swim as Christmas approaches, even when sinking seems the most likely outcome.


Her Christmas Chance by Rachelle Ayala


Travel and romance blogger, Bella Tallahan has always hidden behind her twin sister, Tally. She was born with cerebral palsy and even though she has finished college, she lives vicariously through her sister’s adventures.


It worked, until her sister married and Bella developed a crush on her brother-in-law—a bad boy with a shady past.


Chance Martin made one stupid mistake growing up—one that landed him in prison. He’s making up for it by working in his stepfather’s workshop, restoring antique furniture.


When Mr. Klutz, Bella’s fat tabby cat, wreaks havoc in his workshop, Chance is faced with a dilemma. He’s not the right kind of guy for a woman with disabilities, but at the same time, he can’t get her out of his mind.


Will the trail of destruction left by one naughty cat bring Bella her Christmas chance for love? Can Chance rise above his past and convince Bella that she is truly worth loving? Or will the secret he is keeping horrify Bella enough to send her back in hiding?


Sold! by J.L. Campbell


Christmas looks dismal this year for Feechi Anoduro, until she meets Carsten Raimes, who brings not only good luck, but the chance for her seven year old to keep Max, his beloved Yorkshire terrier.





Unexpected Gift 2 by Chantel Rhondeau


Housekeeper Dani Johnson is nursing a broken heart, so flees across the country to hide out in New York. Certain even Christmas festivities can’t thaw her frozen heart, Dani is in for a shock when she meets the local veterinarian technician and his adorable kittens.


Home for the Holidays by Michele Shriver


After being dumped by her boyfriend and passed over for a law firm partnership in the same week, New York lawyer Melanie Holister heads home for Christmas to the small Iowa town she couldn’t wait to leave behind. When she gets there, Melanie finds that Mill’s River is just as sleepy and boring as when she left it—and that her high school crush is even sexier.


Kaeden McGrath is the most eligible bachelor in Mill’s River, and seems destined to stay that way. He won’t leave as long as his parents are still there and his ailing father needs help keeping the family business alive, and most of the town’s residents are already spoken for. The ones who aren’t would never think of staying there, usually thumbing their nose on their way out of town, much like Melanie Holister did the summer after high school graduation.


When Kaeden learns that Melanie is back, he vows to steer clear. After all, she thinks she’s too good for Mill’s River, and therefore isn’t good enough for him. Their joint involvement in a community project for the holidays helps Kaeden see a different side of Melanie, and Melanie see a different side of the hometown she shouldn’t wait to leave. Will going home for the holidays be exactly what Melanie needs to get her life back on track?

In the eight years since they have seen each other, she has married, become pregnant, a widow, and a mother. Now, Nicholas is home, his beautiful body broken, and his attitude darker and deeper than a volcanic crater. A massage therapist, she knows how to work with sports injuries, but no amount of training or professionalism can help her endure the man who abandoned her when she needed him most.

Nikki Lynn Barrett I'm an avid lover of books. I've been writing as far back as I can remember, completing my first "book" by fifth grade in one of those one subject spiral notebooks. I have a passion for music, photography, jewelry and all things creative. I live in Arizona with my husband and son, but dream of being somewhere much colder and stormier. For now, I'll have to live that life through my characters and stick it out with the summer heat.
DelSheree Gladden was one of those shy, quiet kids who spent more time reading than talking. Literally. She didn’t speak a single word for the first three months of preschool, but she had already taught herself to read. Her fascination with reading led to many hours spent in the library and bookstores, and eventually to writing. She wrote her first novel when she was sixteen years old, but spent ten years rewriting and perfecting it before having it published. 
Native to New Mexico, DelSheree and her husband spent several years in Colorado for college and work before moving back home to be near family again. Their two children love having their seventeen cousins close by. When not writing, you can find DelSheree reading, painting, sewing and trying not to get bitten by small children in her work as a dental hygienist.
