Fall in love this holiday season with heartwarming tales of Christmases past in A Christmas Courting, an enchanting collection of Regency romances.

Despite his reservations, however, he begins to recognize in Cassie a kindred spirit.
A Christmas Courting by Chalon Linton - When obligations keep her in London, Keturah Hensley sadly anticipates missing the festivity of Christmas at her family’s country home and the company of her best friend, Christopher Shepherd. When she learns that Christopher will be joining her family in London for Christmas, she is delighted - but her elation is short-lived. Christopher is coming to Town to court the woman of his dreams, and Keturah fears she may have lost the chance to win his love.
Mistletoe Memories by Jen Geigle Johnson - From childhood, Patrick, Duke of Montrose, knew he’d found his perfect match in Lady Alice Tarrington. When he’s sent on a grand tour of the world, Patrick is confident he’ll marry his sweetheart upon his return. But when he receives word that Alice is to marry another, will he be too late to claim her heart?
Second-Chance Christmas by Heidi Kimball - Francie and Gerard have been friends since childhood, but their friendship ended when she declined his heartfelt proposal of marriage. However, when her interactions with Gerard’s holiday houseguests provoke in Francie unexpected jealousy, she realizes she must fight for Gerard’s affections or risk losing him forever.
Customer Reviews
Very Nice
I love all the clean romance ‘collections’ I’ve found through iTunes: Regency Christmas Collections, Timeless Romance Collections, the Echo Ridge quartet, etc. (I don’t think they’re all connected although it seems some writers overlap occasionally.) There’s never been one I’ve listened to that I’ve ever disliked, and this is no exception. The first story was sweet and felt very festive. The second was light and had a satisfactory ending. The third story felt particularly painful for me. I don’t know if that would be the typical reaction or if it was just me, but whenever the buildup is slow and painful I expect an exceptional ending and while the ending was okay, the story as a whole made me hesitate a little to buy the author’s full length novels as I think they might be a little too much drama in this stressful season of my life. The fourth story was my favorite and had what felt like just the right balance to me. The only thing I wish is that it would’ve been 5-10 minutes longer to tell me what they did next. I really liked the characters and would like to see them integrated in another larger novel with secondary roles. Maybe Heidi Kimball could give us Maria’s story next Christmas?
