Winter Street by
Elin Hilderbrand

"Kelley Quinn is the owner of Nantucket's Winter Street Inn and the proud
father of four, all of them grown and living in varying states of
disarray. Patrick, the eldest, is a hedge fund manager with a guilty
conscience. Kevin, a bartender, is secretly sleeping with a French
housekeeper named Isabelle. Ava, a school teacher, is finally dating the
perfect guy but can't get him to commit. And Bart, the youngest and
only child of Kelley's second marriage to Mitzi, has recently shocked
everyone by joining the Marines. As Christmas approaches, Kelley
is looking forward to getting the family together for some quality time
at the inn. But when he walks in on Mitzi kissing Santa Claus (or the
guy who's playing Santa at the inn's annual party), utter chaos
descends."

The Mistletoe Promise by
Richard Paul Evans

"Elise Dutton dreads the arrival of another holiday season. Three years
earlier, her husband cheated on her with her best friend, resulting in a
bitter divorce that left her alone, broken, and distrustful. Then,
one November day, a stranger approaches Elise in the mall food court.
Though she recognizes the man from her building, Elise has never
formally met him. Tired of spending the holidays alone, the man offers
her a proposition. For the next eight weeks—until the evening of
December 24—he suggests that they pretend to be a couple. He draws up a
contract with four rules: 1. No deep, probing personal questions 2. No drama
3. No telling anyone the truth about the relationship 4. The contract is void on Christmas Day. The
lonely Elise surprises herself by agreeing to the idea. As the charade
progresses, the safety of her fake relationship begins to mend her badly
broken heart. But just as she begins to find joy again, her long-held
secret threatens to unravel the emerging relationship. But she might not
be the only one with secrets." publisher
A Christmas Prayer by
Kimberla Lawson Roby

"Alexis Fletcher hasn't had a merry Christmas in five years-not since her
mother passed away. Every December she remembers the joy her mother
brought to everyone during the holiday season and feels the pain of her
absence, even more so now that she and her sister are barely speaking.
More than anything, Alexis wishes her family could be whole again. However, with her wedding fast approaching, Alexis might just be ready to make some holiday memories with a
new family of her own. Alexis's fiancé, Chase Dupont, is everything she
ever dreamed of. He's kind, handsome, fully supportive of Alexis's
career, and the CEO of a large company. But outside forces threaten to
derail this happy couple from ever reaching the altar. As
tensions rise, a dramatic event causes Alexis to question everything.
Will fate give her what she needs to finally embrace the season that has
brought her so much pain? Will Alexis get her wish for a happy holiday?
Or will her Christmas prayer go unanswered?"

An Island Christmas by
Nancy Thayer

"As Christmas draws near, Felicia returns to her family’s home on the
island to marry her adventurous, rugged boyfriend, Archie. Every detail
is picture-perfect for a dream wedding: the snow-dusted streets,
twinkling lights in the windows, a gorgeous red and white satin dress.
Except a lavish ceremony is not Felicia’s dream at all; it’s what her
mother, Jilly, wants. Jilly’s also worried that her daughter’s life with
daredevil Archie will be all hiking and skydiving. Wondering if their
handsome neighbor Steven Hardy might be a more suitable son-in-law,
Jilly embarks on a secret matchmaking campaign for Felicia and the
dashing stockbroker. As the big day approaches and Jilly’s
older daughter, Lauren, appears with rambunctious kids in tow, tensions
in the household are high. With the family careening toward a Yuletide
wedding disaster, an unexpected twist in Nancy Thayer’s heartwarming
tale reminds everyone about the true meaning of the season."
