UNDERCOVER CLAUS ~
MaryJanice
Davidson
Corrine
Bullwinkle is not a happy jolly Santa this Christmas. With her latest
undercover assignment, catching a purse-snatcher, she is standing on a
street
corner ringing a Salvation Army bell.
Little did Corrine know that her job as “Santa”
would bring UK
businessman,
Grant into her life, whose unpleasant job doesn’t exactly warrant
holiday
cheer.
What a
hoot! In the snappy dialogue and
exciting energy that comes with any MaryJanice Davidson story, Undercover Claus is a wonderful
contribution to this anthology. With great characters and hurdles to
overcome,
this story shows real Christmas spirit and it’s splendidly done through
heart
and humour.

found a silver lining to her troubles?
Ah, romance
as only Lucy Monroe does it! Experience
the joy, passion and heartfelt emotions when two people meet and change
their
lives forever. Christmas is a time of family, bonds and new beginnings.
All of
this is depicted beautifully in Silver
Bells. Bella and Jake are great characters and I’d love to see
more of
them someday!
