One Week in Love #3
One Week in December
Follow four couples as they find, strengthen, or renew love during the holiday season. This collection of four free shorts will light up the dark nights of winter!
Marrying Owen by Alexis Anne
Bringing your boyfriend home to meet your parents at Christmas is a difficult tradition no one looks forward to, but bringing home Owen Jones, lead singer of the triple platinum rock band Jettison Seven, is extra complicated for Alice’s conservative family. Which means a week over the holidays will be the test of whether their relationship is the stuff of legend, or of grocery store gossip magazines.
Simply Having by Audra North
Astrid Faber isn’t expecting any miracles this Christmas. With her parents gone, she’s never felt as alone as she does this holiday season. But when she finds herself struggling to get her lonely little Christmas tree up the stairs into her apartment, her elusive hot neighbor, Simon James, appears just in time to help lift the tree—and her spirits. But can Simon ease her heart long enough for Astrid to allow herself to simply have a wonderful Christmas?
Kiss Me at Midnight by Julia Kelly
Allina Hemphill’s been (unsuccessfully) set up by her parents too many times, but when her mother’s scheming puts Blane Douglas in her sights on Christmas Eve, she finds she’s more than happy to steal a kiss under the mistletoe.
This Christmas by Alexandra Haughton
This Christmas, Maggie Embry feels like a misfit toy. When her parents announced their divorce over Thanksgiving leftovers, it rocked the foundation of her life—even though she’s almost thirty, not six. By refusing to take sides, she finds herself with nowhere to go for the holidays. Which is fine by her because the magic of the season has lost its sparkle.
Reluctantly, Maggie agrees to join her best friend’s little family celebration—it’s better than spending Christmas alone. But when their party grows by an unexpected number at the candlelight Christmas Eve service, it’s a blast from the past who just might be able to help her find her missing pieces…

Fast. Volatile. Gorgeous.
Those are the words they used to describe Kingston Reynolds on the first day of my internship. Well, it wasn’t so much of a description as it was a warning. Do not fraternize with the drivers if you want to keep your job.

Fluffy and sweet, with a thread of Christmas alienation running through all the stories to keep them from being too gooey. I enjoyed it.

Cute holiday reads. The first story was the weakest, as it's an established relationship, and because it was such a short story the backstory all came in sentences like, "we sure are in permanent love and we'll definitely be together forever and there's no way this is just a fling!" Which had the unfortunate effect of making it sound like two people desperately denying to themselves that they'd made a huge mistake. Overall cute and cozy, though.

Short And Sweet. As always too short, but well written, developed stories for the most part. They run the gambit from breathless anticipation to graphic sensuality, each of these stories hits the spot and leaves just enough room for dessert. Moments of imperfect romance with flashes of humor, wrapped up in a heart-warming holiday theme.

FRAGMENTED STORIES BUT NOT UNEXPECTED!
I didn't realize I was getting a bunch of TEASER stories but maybe I'll pay better attention in the future before acquiring.
Since they were FREE, I won't complain.
Give IT a try; it might arouse some interest in a book YOU would like to buy. Good luck!

Got this as a Kindle freebie. Nice set of short romantic stories (with a bit of steam). Because the stories were quite short, there wasn't much room for a lot of conflict or character development, but I enjoyed them anyways.

A wonderful collection of four Short all Christmas related. They were all beautifully written and well plotted. The characters drew you in as much as they possibly could.

Enjoyed those four stories very much! They're pretty short, so there isn't much story or character development but they entertained me nicely for one evening.

I enjoyed these Christmas themed short stories, they gave me warm fuzzies and happy endings all around. Will be looking into reading full length books by all the authors showcased in this novel.
