Kissed on Christmas by Reina Everhart

Posted November 3, 2025 by Marsha in Booksprout ARC, Christmas Romance, Holiday Romance, Kindle Unlimited, Paranormal Romance, Series, Sexual Content, Small Town Romance / 0 Comments

Josephine (Josie) Miller lives for Christmas, the lights, the carols, the cocoa-fueled chaos of it all. As Magnolia Springs’ holiday-obsessed librarian, she believes there’s no problem a little tinsel can’t fix… until a sudden snowstorm leaves her stranded in the mountains two weeks before Christmas.

Enter Weylan Frost, a reclusive, widowed, grumpy mountain hermit with eyes like glaciers and a voice that could freeze the sun. He’s everything Josie isn’t: cold, quiet, and definitely not interested in her gingerbread-level cheer. But when he rescues her from the blizzard and shelters her in his hidden cabin, sparks start to melt the ice between them.

What Josie doesn’t know is that Weylan isn’t entirely human. He’s the guardian of Magnolia Spring’s winter wardline, a Yeti shifter bound to protect the mountains from storms and worse. And when she crashes into his world, her warmth begins to tether him to the one thing he’s been losing year after year… his humanity.

Snowed in together, one grump and one sunshine find that sometimes love is the strongest magic of all. Because sometimes fate doesn’t just find you… It claims you.

Kissed on Christmas is a complete standalone. You don’t need to read the other books in the series to enjoy it, though fun cameos from other characters will pop up along the way.

Falling for her rugged, no-nonsense neighbor is definitely not part of the plan.

Luke Hayes has his hands full raising his lively four-year-old daughter, Lily, while managing his family’s maple syrup farm. With his heart still scarred from being abandoned by Lily’s mother, Luke has sworn off romance. But when a broken fence and a mischievous dog bring Abigail into his life, he starts to wonder if maybe love isn’t as far out of reach as he thought.

C is for Courting by Shelley Shepard Gray

Posted November 1, 2025 by Marsha in Amish Romance, Closed Doors/ Fade to Black, Kensington Books, NetGalley, Series, Small Town Romance / 0 Comments

The second eldest, Beth Schrock, always believed herself the most level-headed sibling. After all, in the wake of their parents’ divorce, it was she who emerged as the caretaker and steadying presence. Yet after almost two years in Ohio, Beth’s life remains the most unsettled.

Unlike her younger sister and brothers, Beth has yet to become Amish, or fall in love, much less marry.  Still, she is about to take on the biggest responsibility of them all. She is going to be a mother. A single mother. While she’s not proud of her actions, she is excited and hopeful about the sense of purpose this change will bring.

When Beth happens to meet family acquaintance Junior Lambright, they bump heads a bit. But after she takes a part-time job at his successful candle factory, it doesn’t take long for sparks to ignite—or for Junior to decide to be the friend Beth clearly needs.

Still, neither expects a romance. Ten years older than Beth, Junior seems content to devote himself to work and his two senior Labradors. And as Beth’s due date looms, she must choose a path. She considers returning to Cleveland and her high-paying, high-stress realtor job. She could hire a nanny. But she’d miss so much about Walden—including Junior.

And then, Junior proposes.

Beth is sure Junior’s sweet offer is only to save her reputation. . . . Unless, like her, Junior is also yearning for something more. With faith, and the courage to open their hearts, they might soon find out . . .

Titles in the Amish ABCs series include:  A is for Amish ~ B is for Bonnet ~ C is for Courting ~ D is for Daisy ~

Eliana Sanderson has accepted that love—and everything that comes with it—isn’t in the cards for her. Thanks to a centuries-old family curse, every attempt at romance ends in chaos, calamity, or combustion. Literally. Appliance fires, allergic reactions, and awkward exits have all sealed her reputation as Wild Rose Point’s most unlucky-in-love woman.

But when Halloween season rolls into town, Eliana makes a deal with her longtime crush—rugged, no-nonsense cowboy Cooper Langdon. If he helps with the town’s haunted hayrides, she’ll pull some strings with the council to support the brewery he wants to build on his ranch.

It’s a win-win… until Eliana accidentally confesses her secret: she’s cursed, and still very much untouched.

Cooper doesn’t believe in curses, but he does believe in Eliana—and he’s more than willing to prove that some sparks are strong enough to defy fate. But as their chemistry sizzles and the town’s spooky season gets underway, it becomes clear that falling for each other might be the most dangerous thing of all.
