Falling in Love...
If you are ready to cry, I deeply recomend this book. It promises the full range of emotions, from hysterical humor to heart-wrenching sadness. I fell in love in the beginning of the book with Roman, loving his freeness and other adorable qualities. Then I fell in love with Tremaine (Trey), aka "The Falcon". Everything about that man just pulled at my senses. Bring along the brother Jeremy and you will fall in love with the story, the characters, and every other aspect of this book. Annabell, aka Isobell, is wonderfully modern, yet has the ancient spirit within her. The revolving soul-mate factor is so amazingly beautiful that it evokes emotions I can't express. The untold glory, honor, and unbearable sadness of the book will touch you in a way that is unimaginable. Look for all the hidden clues. This book will drive you insane with giddiness and a beautiful sadness that you know will come. Only to know they will be with eachother, for now and always.

Storyline ....
...here's the description from the back of the book to help you decide if this story is for you: "Suddenly widowed, Jessica had two choices -- she could suffer, or she could survive ... When Jessica's husband suddenly died, leaving her deeply in debt as a result of bad investment, she was confronted with more than her share of problems. Not only would she have to overcome her grief, but she would also have to earn a living with no experience and no skills. Surrounded by caring friends, she was nevertheless an ousider, alone in the two-by-two world she'd taken for granted all her married life. Faced with the alternatives fo becoming either a victim or a survivor, she chose the latter. With courage and humor, Jessica set out to make a new life for herself, and in the process, rediscovered the possibility of love."

I found this treasury very enjoyable and well written. I felt that the stories that really shined in this novel, were Victoria Alexander's PROMISES TO KEEP, and Dara Joy's SANTA READS ROMANCE. A must-have treasury for your home this holiday season.

4 Romantic Stories by 4 authors!
The first story is by Victoria Alexander, it's called "Promises to Keep". This is about a woman named Katherine who is lonely and sees Santa at a department store, she is 70 years old. She has many regrets in her life, but the one regret is her loss of her soul mate in 1942. Suddenly she finds herself swept back to that very point in her life that she always wished to change. She gets a real second chance to make things right this time. But is it too late? Is he still there? This is a beautiful and heartfilled story of hope and love. I loved it. 5 stars...

The second story is by Sandra Hill (my favorite author). the story is called "Naughty or Nice". It's an hysterical journey through Christmas Eve and Christmas Day as you follow a young woman through her 'Christmas Curse'. Jessica is dressed as Santa and is about to commit a crime, when she takes a hostage who coicidentally looks just like Brad Pitt who is also dressed like Santa. The two find themselves experiencing 'love at first sight'. I was nearly on the floor laughing with this one. It's funny and romantic. It's a 5 star read...

The third story is by Dara Joy, it's called "Santa Reads Romance". I have never read Dara joy before and I was surprised. She is a funny and witty writer! This tale is about a woman romance writer, May. She goes to Maine and rents a cabin in the middle of nowhere to work on her book in peace. Soon she finds herself wishing she could go home when a blizzard begins and a 'Santa' shows up at her door who she knocks out thinking he is a maniac. The man she knocks out is a publisher named Hunter. Hunter is trying to get a manuscript from a moody horror writer deep in Maine. He is talked into dressing as Santa to do a stranger a favor when he finds the 'writer', May. Soon the story becomes hysterical as the two try and get along until they can leave the snowed in cabin. Will publisher and writer get together? This is a sure 5 star read...

The fourth and last story is by Nelle McFather. It's called "A Gift for Santa". This is a tale of a single mother who finds true love and happiness on Christmas from a stranger named Nick. She finds her soul mate at long last, but can she teach him the true meaning of the season? Can she convince him that true love does indeed exist? This is more of a 4 star read in my opinion, but it is still wonderful.

Wonderful collection with some really great authors.
I love the collection as a whole, but right now am just reviewing Victoria Alexander's story in The Night Before Christmas, "Promises to Keep." Boy, this is an amazing time travel/fantasy story. A woman who loses the man she loves in WWII has a second chance to find him again through a magical Santa Claus. This is an incredible story. Really, really moving. And very original. Ms. Alexander just keeps getting better!
