Holidays in the Heartland: Ohio Christmas Tales

The Wayne Novelist Guild's Holidays in the Heartland: Ohio Christmas Tales is a cheerful mix of romance, fantasy, and history — because nothing says "holiday spirit" like a little chaos, a few tears, and maybe even a ghost. Whether you're craving mistletoe moments, second chances, eight glowing nights, or once-in-a-lifetime holiday magic, these ten stories have it all. Read one or read them all — either way, you're in for a festive treat… Ohio style!

• Rose gave up on love — but with the temptation of a few Mistletoe Kisses, can a stubborn cowboy like Kash prove it's been right beside her all along?

• On Christmas eve, lost and lonely widow, Donna, takes in a stray dog. Has he come Home for Christmas… or will she?

• In a small town's holiday's celebration, a mystical creature's appearance and Callie's eccentric grandpa's behavior might just prove that the holiday cheer isn't the only thing that's Stranger than Christmas in July.

• The Looney's always thought they knew what Christmas was about — until a real Christmas Village showed them it takes more than just fancy decorations to get the spirit right.

• If you haven't been Tinsel Touched, then you've not been to Snowberry, Ohio where peppermint hot cocoa and love finds a second chance to warm your heart.

• In the depths of darkness, a glint of light flickers. Through troubled times and the courage to remember, The Light of Cleveland grows bright with love.

• In Christmas Giving, a couple of strangers help give young soldier, Will Saunders, a most memorable train ride.

• Spilling the beans on the Hower House's long-lost secret may reveal A Timeless Christmas for all.

• Finding a home for Scent and his furry friends over the holiday is easy, staying in The Abandoned Cottage to become a family of misfits is another thing.

• Naughty or Nice, Christmas Eve is sure to be a night Santa won't forget… and neither will the elves on Sleigh Watch.

Schultz, these stories serve up a sleigh full of holiday fun. One book, ten authors, and plenty of yuletide love and just the right dash of holiday chaos — you won't want to miss!
