Here are two holiday novellas from the popular Copper Mountain Christmas series for FREE:
A Cowboy For Christmas by Katherine Garbera
Annie Prudhomme never expected to be back in Marietta, MT and her family is fond of reminding her that she left them and the town behind in search of better things. A humiliating divorce that cost her everything she’d gained has driven her back home and her family isn’t about to welcome her back into the fold. She’s in town to rebuild the old home that she inherited and to move on once again.
Carson Scott never forgot Annie or the way she left. Now that she’s back in town he’s realizing that the old flame still burns hot but he can’t risk his heart the way he did last time now that he has his son to think about it. Being trapped together during a December snowstorm gives them a chance to rekindle their romance but is Annie back for good or is she just looking for a cowboy for Christmas?
Mistletoe Magic by Melissa McClone
Spending a quiet Christmas housesitting and reading novels about hot cowboys sounds perfect to Caitlin Butler. Until a stray kitten brings her face-to-face with Noah, her crush from college. Watching the handsome vet in action melts Caitlin’s heart and brings back long forgotten emotion. She would be safer back at the house lost in the pages of a book. But a toe-curling mistletoe kiss tempts her to stay. Maybe she won’t be spending this Christmas… alone.
Veterinarian Noah Sullivan isn’t a Scrooge, but the Christmas Eve tradition of hanging mistletoe in the clinic’s waiting room annoys him. Kissing doesn’t belong at the Copper Mountain Animal Hospital. Noah rethinks his position when Caitlin arrives with a stray kitten she found freezing in the snow. All he wants now is to maneuver the pretty preschool teacher under the mistletoe. If he’s not careful, he’ll wind up on Santa’s naughty list.
I’m totally hooked on Alexandra Ivy & Laura Wright’s HOT HOT HOT paranormal Bayou Heat series. Here’s a holiday novella, Bayou Noël , that is their gift to you! (If you ilke this taste of the Bayou, the first book in the series you might want to try the first book in the series too: Raphael/Parish (Bayou Heat book 1, $0.99)
‘Tis the season for new beginnings
Molly is through with spending Bayou Noel alone – after waiting five years for Garrick to notice her as more than just his mother’s caregiver. The aggravating male might always have a place in her heart, but she’s determined to find someone who wants to build a family with her. She has no idea that writing a letter of resignation will bring Garrick back to the Wildlands.
It will take a miracle to bring them together
Garrick can’t believe that Molly is willing to walk away. She’s not only become irreplaceable to his mother, but he’s become addicted to her letters when he was far away from home. He’ll be damned if he is going to let her slip away. But once back in the Wildlands, Garrick is forced to choose between opening his heart to the female he loves or risk losing her forever.
Here’s a fun holiday historical, The Christmas Ball by Sherrill Bodine
Outshone by a gregarious stepsister and overbearing stepmother, Lady Athena Cummins is used to fading into the shadows. Beloved only by her youngest sister Persephone, Athena has accepted her destiny as a spinster. But Persephone has a different scheme in mind, and conspires to send Athena out for one night of fun at Lord Finchley’s masquerade Christmas Ball. The masked beauty catches the Lord’s eye but, determined to avoid the wrath of her stepsister, Athena leads Lord Finchley on a wild chase to discover her true identity.
I haven’t read Playing for Time by Barbara Bretton yet, but plan to do so over the holidays as I love Bretton’s books and a good romantic suspense. It’s part of her PAX series.
With PAX, the password is danger.
Falling in love was easy
Staying alive? That’s a whole other story . . .
Ryder is an undercover operative for PAX, a worldwide antiterrorist agency that flies beneath the radar
Joanna is a Hollywood makeup artist whose magic turns fantasy into reality on a daily basis
He’s a spy looking to come in from the cold
She’s a woman who’s never had a real home
Sizzling passion . . . heart-stopping danger . . . the ultimate choice . . .
I really enjoyed Lisa Plumley‘s newest contemporary romance, So Irresitible, so am really pleased to see that her Josie Day Is Coming Home is being offered for FREE! (I count this as a gift from Amazon & Plumley to me, thank you!)
USA Today bestselling author Lisa Plumley does it again with another sparkling, sexy novel of crazy coincidences–and crazier love…
Her name was Josie, she was a showgirl…
…until the night she Heimliched a martini olive out of fabulously wealthy and eccentric casino owner Tallulah Carlyle. Now Josie Day–proud new owner of one of Tallulah’s spare estates–is leaving Vegas behind for…Donovan’s Corner, Arizona? Ironically, her “reward” has brought her right back to the dusty hometown she thought she’d left behind forever. Still, Josie’s ready to prove there’s more to her than feathers and a wicked rumba. She plans to sell the old mansion and use the profits to open a dance school. But first, she’ll have to figure out some fancy footwork to avoid knocking heads–and other things–with caretaker and local bad boy Luke Donovan…
It isn’t every day a woman like Josie comes strutting into town–which is fortunate, since her presence on the estate has Luke hotter and more bothered than he’s been since, well, ever. He’s a little annoyed with his Aunt Tallulah, though. This was supposed to be his property to renovate and sell–an opportunity to make good after being cut off from the family fortune. But Josie doesn’t have to know that…at least not until Luke figures out a way to make both their dreams come true–and prove that Vegas isn’t the only place where taking a chance can change everything…
Maggie Shayne is one of those authors I just admire the heck out of. I love her paranormal romances and have just begun reading her more traditional contemporary romance novels. Texas Homecoming from the Texas Brand series is a new one to me and is FREE right now!
A HEART YEARNS
Luke Brand wishes for what he’s never had–family. Aside from an overprotective mother who died young, he’s never had that–until he drives his rig into Quinn, Texas to meet the family he’s never known. His cousins welcome him with open arms. 3 months later he’s still there, selling his semi to buy an abandoned house for back taxes, dreaming of settling down with a wholesome woman and raising some kids of his own.
OPPOSITES ATTRACT
Jasmine is not wholesome. She’s a waitress and sometimes exotic dancer at a Chicago club. A classically trained dancer, Jasmine doesn’t mind doing what she has to. It’s all for her son, Baxter. She’d do anything to protect him from the world.
DANGER PURSUES
When Baxter witnesses a murder at the club and becomes a target himself, Jasmine takes him and runs. Posing as her best friend, shot dead by the same killer who’s after Bax, she heads for Texas to hole up in the house her roomie inherited but wanted no part of. The only problem with her plan is the sexy cowboy who’s already living there.
Fans of movies like Hope Floats, Sweet Home Alabama, and The Cowboy Way and novels like Susan Mallery’s Fool’s Gold series will love Maggie Shayne’s TEXAS BRANDS.
I started reading The Seven Steps to Closure by Donna Joy Usher last night and could not put it down. Haven’t you always wondered what would happen if you followed one of those relationship advice dictates in Cosmo? Well, read this and wonder no longer.

Things go from bad to worse when she discovers that, not only is her ex-husband engaged to her cousin – Tash, the woman he left her for – but that Jake is also running for Lord Mayor of Sydney.
Desperate to leave the destructive relationship behind and with nothing to lose, she decides- with encouragement from her three best friends – to follow the dubious advice from a magazine article, Closure in Seven Easy Steps.

Kim fears she’ll never get a ring and Nathaniel will leave her after the holidays are over.

Plenty! There’s a shady tattoo parlor behind their shop, a crowd of crazy Zumba dancers out front (chanting “Lose the fat, dance with Pat!”), and about the only thing going right is Andi’s romance . . . until Jake’s media crew captures a story that could shut the two of them down forever.

Mile’s just released The Town Square (Dare Valley book 4) that is set in the 1960s (Mad Men time) and tells the story of Arthur Hale, the grandpa we’ve all come to love.

I haven’t yet read this paranormal holiday anthology Unholy Nights: A Twisted Christmas Anthology by Linda Barlow, Andra Brynn, Carly Carson, Alana Albertson, Kara Ashley Dey, Nicole Blanchard, Cherie Chulick, but plan to. It’s described as a selection: “For folks who like their Christmas a little twisted, seven tales of charms and magic, curses and intrigue…” Yep, that’s me!

I really enjoy Tina Folsom’sScanguard Vampires series about vampire bodyguards and kick-ass (and very sassy) heroines.

Now’s the perfect chance as the first three books in the series, Scanguards Vampires Box Set (Vol 1-3: Samson’s Lovely Mortal, Amaury’s Hellion, Gabriel’s Mate) are available right now for just $0.99!
Samson’s Lovely Mortal
Vampire bachelor Samson can’t get it up anymore. Not even his shrink can help him. That changes when the lovely mortal auditor Delilah tumbles into his arms after a seemingly random attack. Suddenly there’s nothing wrong with his hydraulics – that is, as long as Delilah is the woman in his arms.
His scruples about taking Delilah to bed vanish when his shrink suggests it’s the only way to cure his problem. Thinking all he needs is one night with her, Samson indulges in a night of pleasure and passion.
However, another attack on Delilah and a dead body later, and Samson has his hands full: not only with trying to hide the fact he’s a vampire, but also with finding out what secrets Delilah harbors for somebody to want her harm.
Amaury’s Hellion
Vampire Amaury LeSang is cursed to feel everybody’s emotions like a permanent migraine. The only way to alleviate the pain is through sex. When he meets the feisty human woman Nina, a cure for his ailment seems within reach: in her presence all pain vanishes.
Unfortunately, Nina is out to kill him because she believes he’s involved in her brother’s death. And she would succeed if only Amaury’s bad boy charm didn’t play havoc with her hormones and catapulted her into his arms and his bed every time she was near him.
As every kiss brings them physically closer, danger is lurking and threatens to destroy the little trust they have in each other.
Gabriel’s Mate
After Maya is turned into a vampire against her will, vampire and Scanguards bodyguard Gabriel is charged with protecting her and finding her attacker.
Gabriel has never guarded a body as perfect as Maya’s. Moreover, Maya’s enticing blend of vulnerability and strength is difficult to resist. Yet resist he must. Even as the sexual tension between them rises and the rogue vampire closes in on them, Gabriel refuses to give into his desire. Despite the intimacies they share, Gabriel fears that if he ever reveals himself fully to her, Maya will react like other women have, running from him, and calling him a monster, a freak, a creature not worth her love.
Will Maya prove to be the one female who cherishes all that Gabriel is?

Sam Lyons should probably apologize. But every time he sees Mira–which is often, since his family owns the bakery next to her shop–he can’t resist antagonizing her. There’s something about the sexy, straight-laced woman that drives him crazy. He can’t get involved, though. He has too much baggage to be any good in a serious relationship.
Despite his teasing attitude, Mira finds Sam too sweet to resist. (His hot body may be a factor.) But if there’s going to be anything permanent between them, they’ll need to let go of their pasts and look to the future…
I always need to warn friends when I begin reading a book by Kimberly Raye as I know I’ll soon be laughing out loud! Right now, The Devil’s in the Details is being offered for just $1.99. Buy it and get your paranormal laugh on!
Jess Damon’s life is…complicated. Not only is she a man-eating succubus (albeit recently reformed), but she has the mother from hell—literally. Yep, Houston’s hottest wedding planner is the daughter of the devil. Though as far as her mother knows, Jess is only in the business to hook up with hunky groomsmen, not to find true love.
But when demon hunter Cutter Owens rolls into town, turning her back on her evil birthright proves harder than Jess thought. Cutter is out to take down the devil once and for all—and he wants Jess’s help to do it. There’s no denying Cutter is gorgeous, in that sexy “a demon stole my soul” sort of way. And, sure, Lillian Damon is the queen of evil. But she’s still Jess’s mom. Now Jess must outfox the world’s greatest demon hunter without revealing her true identity or—devil forbid!—falling in love. Sexy, funny, and fiendishly clever, this bewitching paranormal romance is one hell of a read.
