Chesapeake Bay Saga

Christmas At Ardmore / The Quinns Christmas / Excerpts From The Villa

This book was a special promotional giveaway volume that had a limited release. It contained 2 short Christmas stories featuring characters from the Chesapeake Bay Saga and the Gallaghers of Ardmore trilogy.

Due to the short length and the fact that the book is very hard to find, the stories are available on Roberts's website.

Found my copy of this from when I worked at Waldenbooks, these two epilogues started out as an exclusive giveaway for the store at Christmastime. Could not believe I still had it. Christmas at Ardmore is the epilogue to her Gallaghers at Ardmore trilogy. The three siblings and their spouses have a couple page finish to their stories when they reunited at Christmas in Ardmore, Ireland. The Quinns Christmas is an epilogue to the Chesapeake Bay series, that also takes place at Christmas, and lets you know what officially happened to the family and the foster son they had.

2 Christmas stories and an excerpt. Very short. Loved the Christmas stories only because I get sentimental when reading about that time of the year.

These are really good additions to the trilogies. The Christmas with the Quinns seems to be either between book 3 and 4 or after book 1. The Christmas In Ardmmore is after book three. If you have read the Ardmmore trilogy and the Chesapeake bay trilogy then these stories are worth the 15 min it will take to read them.

I read both of these series several years ago and loved them both. I was just on Nora's web site and came across these 2 short story's in the freebie section. When I read them it brought the books flooding back to me. I loved both of these SS. They brought a smile to my face and tears to my eyes. A must read.

At only __ pages (57 per GRs and 94 on my Kindle) its really short and cute. I don't know that you get to experience everything you should in a regular Nora book this quickly though.
