Twelve Days by Teresa Hill
Yep I have this on my list for this year.

I don't read her books she is too inaccurate and takes too many liberties for the time period she writes in.

  • Must Love Santa by Nina Bruhns (C+/3 stars)
  • Captive Christmas by Shannon Curtis [free website read] (B/4 stars)
  • Home for Christmas by Kate Davies (C/2 stars)

  • One Perfect Night by Rachael Johns (C+/3 stars)
  • A Christmas Kiss by Merline Lovelace (C/2 stars)
  • Cole for Christmas by Rhonda Nelson (B/4 stars)
  • All I Want for Christmas by Nora Roberts (C/2 stars)
  • Home for Christmas by Nora Roberts (D/1 star)
  • A Nice Girl Like You by Alexandra Sellers [Silhouette Yours Truly] (D/1 star)
  • Holiday Sparks by Shannon Stacey (B+/4 stars)
  • In the Sprirt by Shannon Stacey (B-/3 stars)
  • Mistletoe and Margaritas by Shannon Stacey (B-/3 stars)
  • Snowbound with the CEO by Shannon Stacey (B-/3 stars)
  • Yule Be Mine by Charlene Teglia (C+/3 stars)
  • The 6'1" Grinch by Tiffany White (C/2 stars)
I have others in print. These are the ones I have in digital in Calibre
so easy to access via my Christmas/Hanukkah tag. There are some more Harlequin novellas, etc I have in digital which I read in print but don't remember well enough to rate so they are on my To Be Reread list.

Just FYI, I consider C's a perfectly good read. I usually rate my books against other books by the same author. So a C by one author may be a better book to me than a B by another author. Since I simply delete books I don't like (unless by a favorite author) my 5 star ratings may tend to skew lower than others. 2 or 3 stars are average to me meaning I still liked the book well enough. I try to reserve my 4 and 5 star ratings only for books I especially liked.
I loved Yule Be Mine by Charlene Teglia I gave it 5 stars.

Found a few Christmas/Winter lists on GR, including this one, which looks like a good mix of historical/contemporary/big 5/indie:

I'm off to expand my holiday tbr!
Good luck! Let me know if you find any good ones!

I did it! Now to separate them into smaller, individual books that won't make my Kindle cry. I need to do that other recent western box set, too.

Which also means I'll have to upgrade Calibre, which I haven't done in a good six months. Maybe next weekend I'll be able to post a pretty cover screenshot finally!

Thank you, bookmarked! I only have two Christmassy reads in my TBR pile, so this will help. And that list, also!

I haven't read but maybe one other book in that series and really enjoyed both, despite the mistorical tendencies.

I have another Christmas recommend, the last book in the Rogue series by Annette Blair is Christmas and babies! It's not entirely historically accurate, but the funniness and the babies make up for it. It's the fourth in a 4-book series, but they go free very often! I actually have them all and can lend on Kindle if anyone is interested.

Oh you need to update! You are missing out on soo much new stuff!

Didn't find anything in that list but possibly one book and would you know I already own it in paperback.

I have the books you mention but not time to read all 4 so maybe next year how mistorical are they give me a author to compare to please?

I just found this free novella from author Mia Marlowe: Plaid to the Bone



A bride comes to Bonniebroch. . .

But Cait Grant is hardly dreaming of wedded bliss. For political reasons, she must marry Adam Cameron, laird of Bonniebroch. And then, as a duty to her clan, she must murder him. . .

If only her new husband weren't so devilishly handsome. If only she didn't have to play the loving wife for one long, languorous month. If only she didn't surrender to his softly sensual touch, she would be able to fulfill her duty. If only she didn't fall in love. . .

I hope it goes free on Kindle. Nook let me grab it but wont let me download because I don't have a credit card that works. My new card needs to get here.

Well I got it downloaded but when I added it to my Nook I got the message that it is DRM protected and cannot be read.

This is why I hate B&N.

I have reported it to Amazon as free at B&N hopefully it will go free in a few hours
