The Christmas Gazebo depicted the historical and current fictional town of Springlake, Florida; although, some of the history is partially based on the actual town of DeFuniak, Florida. The realistic happenings and dedication of the Townsend family to their town gave way to delightful tales. .

I’ve read a number of Christmas stories, but I don’t think I’ve ever read one set in Florida. It was a nice change. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for a “white Christmas,” but I wouldn’t mind celebrating one warm-weathered green Christmas. I could do that, in a way, with this book.
These two novellas are by different authors, but they work so well together, making this a quick, entertaining read. The stories take place in the past and present, in the fictional town of Springlake, Florida. S ...more

I just read an advance copy of this book. What a delightful book! It was a fun, easy read and held my attention throughout. I read the book through in one sitting. Housework can wait, right!?! Marilyn Turk and Lenora Worth did an amazing job weaving together their two stories set decades apart but in the same setting. The characters seemed so real, and I did not want their stories to end. This would be a great book to leave in your guest bedroom for your holiday guests to read!

I love books set in non-traditional Christmas settings (Florida) and this one fits the bill. Written by two highly talented authors, the two stories blend seamlessly and make for a fun and enjoyable read. As I was reading it, I couldn't help but think this would make a wonderful Hallmark movie! Grab a copy!
