HOLIDAY MAGIC: A HAPPY HOLIDAY GIVEAWAY

 GIVEAWAY ENDED
HOLIDAY MAGIC
An Anthology by
FERN MICHAELS
CATHY LAMB
MARY CARTER
TERRI DULONG

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Mistletoe, magic, twinkling lights, and stolen kisses. . . Experience all the wonders of the holiday season with these four irresistible stories. . .

Holiday Magic by Fern Michaels
Ski shop manager Stephanie Marshall is counting on a holiday bonus so she can put a down payment on a home for herself and her daughters. But her handsome boss, Eddie O’Brien, has his own Christmas wish—one that could lead to a lifetime of loving. . .

A Very Merry Christmas by Cathy Lamb
Meredith Ghirlandaio’s to-do list is already overflowing, between keeping her B&B afloat, directing the town’s holiday concert, and trying to avoid rancher Logan Taylor. Doesn’t he know Meredith’s through with men—even rugged, alpha, drop-dead-gorgeous men? Then again, some vows were meant to be broken. . .

A Very Maui Christmas by Mary Carter
Tara Lane has the perfect plan to avoid another hellish family holiday—fly to Maui. Too bad her family decided to follow suit. But a laid-back handyman is about to prove you don’t need snow to have a sparkling, sexy Christmas. . .

A Cedar Key Christmas by Terri DuLong
Single mom Josie Sullivan is proud of her young daughter, Orli, for helping local fisherman Mr. Al restore his crumbling home. And when Mr. Al’s nephew, Ben, pays a visit, Josie realizes just how much Christmas magic one good deed can bring. . .

ABOUT THE AUTHORS:
Terri DuLong:
Author of the acclaimed women’s fiction Cedar Key Series, Terri DuLong is the author of Spinning Forward (Kensington Books, November 2009).
Born and reared in the Boston area . . . Salem, the Witch City, to be exact, DuLong was an only child, who relied on imaginary friends for playmates. All these years later, she believes those playmates (and her love for books) led her to her passion for writing. To read more about Terri, go to her website HERE!

Fern Michaels:
Fern Michaels isn’t a person. I’m not sure she’s an entity either since an entity is something with separate existence. Fern Michaels® is what I DO. Me, Mary Ruth Kuczkir. Growing up in Hastings, Pennsylvania, I was called Ruth. I became Mary when I entered the business world where first names were the order of the day. To this day, family and friends call me Dink, a name my father gave me when I was born because according to him I was ‘a dinky little thing’ weighing in at four and a half pounds. However, I answer to Fern since people are more comfortable with a name they can pronounce. To read more about Fern, go to her website HERE!

Cathy Lamb:
Cathy Lamb was born in Newport Beach, California.  As a child, she mastered the art of skateboarding, catching butterflies in bottles, and riding her bike with no hands.  When she was 10, her parents moved her, two sisters,  a brother, and two poorly behaved dogs to Oregon before she could fulfill her lifelong dream of becoming a surfer bum.
She then embarked on her notable academic career where she earned good grades now and then, spent a great deal of time daydreaming, ran wild with a number of friends, and landed on the newspaper staff in high school. When she saw her byline above an article about people making out in the hallways of the high school, she knew she had found her true calling. If you'd like to read more about Cathy, go to her website HERE.

Mary Carter:
MARY CARTER is a freelance writer and novelist.  My Sister’s Voice is her fourth novel with Kensington. Her other works include:  She’ll Take ItAccidentally EngagedSunnyside Blues, andThe Honeymoon House in the best selling anthology Almost Home. She is a graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, and the National Technical Institute for the Deaf, which is part of the Rochester Institute of Technology. If you'd like to read more about Mary, go to her website HERE

Wonderful an Omnibus of Christmas novels! I looked for reviews of the four novellas and I believe "A Cedar Key Christmas" by Terri DuLong would be my favorite from the reviews that I have read. Many stated that Terri Dulong had good character development and this novella follows her previous Cedar Key books.

'A Very Maui Christmas would be the one that I would pick. Besides being warmer and not having to pay for the heat, I would be interested in any customs associated with Christmas. When I was living in Southern California, I learned about luminaries and different traditional hispanic food. I wonder what are the traditions in Hawaii?
