**A Snowfall of Seasonal Romance**

Morning Peeps!

We all love holidays, we all enjoy a good romance. And what could be better than coupling this festive season with some heart-warming and  cheering *Christmas Romance* stories.

We'll be introduced to 'Mr Tall Dark and Handsome', or 'Blond Scandinavian Good looks'. And it’s always fun to see how long 'Miss I Will Resist You For As Long Possible' will actually refuse to let down her defences and how the drop-dead gorgeous male protagonist eventually wins - or vice versa!

I've put together a small personal selection of *Christmas/seasonal* books from nine authors - including SIX NEW RELEASES - and I hope there's something here to interest you, whether you're looking for the perfect novel to curl up and read on a cold winter’s evening with a cup of cocoa or if it's a sexy and feisty tale you're after.

Some of the books in this ***
snowfall of seasonal romance *** have been lowered in price for a short spell only - so make sure you buy them now. And don't forget, seeing as ebooks are usually very reasonable in price at all times they make WONDERFUL presents! I hope the *Christmas* spirit cloaks whichever story you choose with just enough charm and twinkly appeal - after all it is *Christmas!* Enjoy!

A Shepherd's Song by Janice Lane Palko

 Tom Shepherd is anything but a hero. A senior physics major at a University, he just wants to make some easy cash for a spring break vacation. On the last Sunday in November, he arrives to sell the Christmas season’s hottest toy, for three times its retail price to a buyer. He arrives  in the middle of a bone marrow drive benefiting four-year-old Christo Davidson, who has leukemia. Everyone there—including the media covering the event--assumes that Tom has come to give the toy to the sick boy. Tom has no choice but to give it away.

Lauded as a hero and bestowed with the nickname “The Good Shepherd,” Tom finds himself an overnight celebrity. He knows he’s unworthy of the honor, but when Gloria Davidson, Christo’s cousin, seeks out Tom to thank him for being kind so kind, Tom is bewitched by her beauty. To impress Gloria, he embellishes his character and lies. Tom asks Gloria out, beginning a relationship which leads him to examine everything he believes. On Christmas Eve, Tom finds himself facing choices that will affect everyone. Tom must choose between sacrifice and honor, love and loneliness, life and death.
A Christmas romance with which will make you believe in magic.

Wild Water, White Horizon and Midnight Sky by Jan Ruth

Fancy a paperback Christmas in the stunning Welsh hills? Jan Ruth’s mix of romance and drama amid the fabulous mountains of Snowdonia is a great gift idea, or just the perfect excuse to stay warm by the fire... Jack’s Christmas doesn’t go to plan at all (Wild Water), and as for Dan and Tina’s Christmas wedding (White Horizon), perhaps actually having a plan might have worked out better. Although there’s no sign of the festive season for James and Laura (Midnight Sky), they do get snowed in, and there’s a special promotion on the Kindle edition of this book throughout December for just 99c/77p

The Christmas Honeymoon by Alicia & Roy Street *New Release*

A Holiday Luv novella!

Serena always loved Christmas, but her favorite holiday season only brings on heartache after her groom-to-be runs off with another woman only a week before her December wedding. Giving back the wedding gifts and enduring the humiliating gossip in her small town proves to be too much for the quiet librarian who’d been the brunt of nerd jokes in high school, and Serena leaves town—only to return a year later determined to take back her life, her pride, and her joy in Christmas. 

Damien has his own reasons for hating Christmas. No sweet and silly stuff for this handsome Scrooge, who hurls himself into extreme sports, almost daring nature to break through his hard shell. So why does he find his icy heart melting when confronted with the timid librarian whose sweet smile haunts his dreams?

He’ll do whatever it takes to give her the holiday she deserves and pull off a real Christmas miracle.

Lia Fairchild’s Home for Christmas is the moving story of two people, fates intertwined, about to be surprised by what destiny has in store.
