REVIEW: Susan Wiggs’ Candlelight Christmas is a heartwarming, page-turning, must-read for your holiday bookshelf!

imageI love receiving books from authors I never read. I’m loathe to admit the number of authors I still need be introduced to, but Susan Wiggs is no longer counted among them. When I received Candlelight Christmas, book 10 in her The Lakeshore Chronicles series, I made the determination to read books one through nine first. I’m so glad I did.

If Wiggs had set her Lakeshore Chronicles anywhere in the US or abroad, I’d find it a wonderful series. Having her set it in what is, essentially, my backyard – a small Catskill Mountain town in Ulster County …

REVIEW: Love for the Holidays collection offers range of stories from sweet to quite HOT!

imageTo be absolutely frank, the Love for the Holidays collection by Noelle Adams, Samantha Chase, Rachel Curtis, and Zoe York was not one of my favorites to read. The one thing that made this collection at first glance interesting to me – the wide range of story themes from gentle and sweet romance, to quite spicy and HOT – gave me almost a case of reader while whiplash reading it.

I enjoyed several stories within the collection, including Samantha Chase’s “Mistletoe Between Friends” and “The Christmas Cottage,” Zoe York’s “What Once Was Perfect,” and Rachel Curtis’ “Eight Christmas Elves.” However, …
