Texas-style passion awaits three sisters this Christmas.

Faith’s Sugar Plum Daddy ~ Leanne Banks
Faith Donner isn’t much into the Christmas spirit this year.  Raising two children on her own doesn’t leave much time for herself or the money for an elaborate Christmas.  When oil mogul, Gabriel Raines and his company decide to play Santa to her and her children, there is much holiday cheer and new beginnings in the Donner family.

Leanne Banks pens a delightful story featuring the first of the three sisters in these stories, Faith.  With a magical blend of romance, love and priceless characters, the reader is enchanted by this beautiful holiday story.

Christmas Eve Reunion ~ Dixie Browning
Ann Elise Baker, the oldest of the Baker sisters, has always tried to look after her siblings since their parents died.  Ann Elise has sacrificed a lot through the years to be sure her sisters were taken care of.  Now a successful veterinarian in Dallas with no time for men, when she returns home to Mission Creek, she finds herself stranded with her old high school crush, Joe Halloran.  Will an old crush become the love of a lifetime this holiday season for Ann Elise?

Dixie Browning captures the holiday with a tale of hope and second chances.  Ann Elise finds that the past isn’t always what it seemed, especially as we grow older and see things in a whole new way.  A touch of Santa makes us believe in happily ever after with the one who got away.

New Year’s Baby ~ Kathie DeNosky
The youngest of the Baker sisters, Marilou is hesitant about returning to Mission Creek.  Marilou doesn’t want her sisters to know that the father of the baby she is carrying abandoned her.  When her flight home is cancelled due to bad weather and a stranger staring at her gives her the creeps, she wonders what could happen next.  Then she meets handsome cowboy Tate Carson, a ‘white knight’ who rescues her.  Tate is also returning home to Mission Creek and offers Marilou his company and much more.  After hearing her unhappy tale, Tate offers to pose as her fiancé to help her deal with her sisters.  Does role-playing lead to the real thing for Marilou and Tate?

Kathie DeNosky is best known for her sexy as sin, rescuing damsels in distress cowboys and Tate Carson is one of her best cowboys yet.  This tale tugs on the heartstrings and has the reader reaching for the tissues.  This is a delightfully heartwarming tale to round out a season of family, happiness and love for the Baker sisters.

Snuggle up with a warm blanket, a hot cup of cocoa and let these three magical authors bring you the true meaning of Christmas with HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS.  Each story hits home with love, family and miracles that will put one in the Christmas spirit by the time they are done reading.  Three wonderful stories, three wonderful writers shed joyful tiding this holiday season.  HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS should be on your gift giving list for that special someone this Christmas!
