Story #1- Noelle And The Wise Man by Roz Denny Fox
Honey and Camden have quite the first meeting. And you can just tell that the "friction" between them is just going to get "worse". Especially when the property boundaries get disputed. Both of the main characters are good ones, both with a passionate disposition.
Misunderstanding after misunderstanding happens of course. But there is also times where they click together pretty well.
Another thing that they have in common is that they aren't afraid of hard work. One major difference is that Honey grew up with a close-knit family, in one place where the majority of the town cared for her. Cam had the exact different experience. But that didn't mean that he didn't want to be special to someone and have family.
The story has a H.E.A. with a very nice Epilogue.

Story #2-ONE MAGIC CHRISTMAS by Ann DeFee
Short, Sweet and Charming, that is how I would describe this book. . A perfectly good story for the Holidays.
I liked both of the M.C.'s and thought that Matt and Honey were pretty well developed as likable people, in this shorter book (novella). It didn't take long for me to be rooting for them to be together. Wow, they might have been pretty young when they first got together but they sure had the cards stacked against them then. It was a really good look at how lives were screwed up because of the control of others.
Not a pretty picture but an amusing re-meeting of Matt and Honey, does bring around a second chance. Now what are they going to do with it?
The 3 kids mentioned in the blurb were a welcome addition and of course the youngest was especially charming.
I'm still smiling from the warmth of the story.

Tanner And Baum by Tanya Michaels
Boy, did Tanner ever mess up big time. He ran off from his hometown and now he's run back after being caught up in some unsavory business. Oh, he wasn't at fault but still things don't look good for his climbing up the business ladder.
Vonda, was a hoot and she takes no prisoners. She doesn't have to. At a spunky seventy- three years old she tells it like it is. She definitely made me smile and became a favorite secondary character. Lilah's Aunt Shelby was also a strong character. She might have been a bit softer in her approach than Vonda but she was definitely the steel in a velvet glove when she needed to be.
One of my favorite lines in the book came from a conversation between, Tanner and his brother David. Tanner was complaining about his sister refusing to give him any updated information about Lilah and her life. David said that it was female solidarity. Tanner responded that David wouldn't think it was so amusing if they were united against him. Here's my favorite line (David) "I go out of my way not to tick them off. Do I look stupid to you?"
Will there be a H.E.A.? Well, yes it's Christmas, in a town called Mistletoe. But half the fun will be Tanner chasing after Lilah, trying to catch her...again. And she's not going to make it easy!
