Historical Christmas Stories

This book contains three stories by three wonderful authors. Each story will touch your heart. There is a recipe that goes with the story at the beginning of each one and a note by the author as well. Obviously each story has a Christmas theme but other than that they are as different as night and day. The following appears on the back of the book: TUMBLEWEED CHRISTMAS by Kristin James "Buh humbug" rancher Daniel MacKenzie met his match in his new housekeeper, Melinda Ballard. Daniel was sure he didn't have time for the fripperies of Christmas, but Melinda was determined to bring the holiday spirit into his home -- and the magic of love into his heart. A CINDERELLA CHRISTMAS by Lucy Elliot It seemed Mary Hillyer's purpose in life was catering to the needs of her capricious family. Kindhearted Mary was destined for spinsterhood, or so the New England townsfolk thought. Then, one Christmas, Jack Gates, a man robbed of his childhood by tragedy, saw a light in Mary's warm brown eyes that made him feel alive again. HOME FOR CHRISTMAS by Heather Graham Pozzessere It broke Travis's heart to see Isabelle go, but he was the Yankee captain who had commandeered her home and she was a daughter of the Confederacy. However much he wished it, there could be no love between them. Yet, even in the war-torn South, there was room for a Christmas miracle or two.
