Cassie Smith fostered a serviceman’s dog for a year while he was overseas. She should have thought that through. Now he’s back for his dog—only she hadn’t expected to fall in love with the big German Shepherd, nor her owner.

A Teaspoon of Mistletoe
Annie Tolliver is happy as could be living in the small town of Lamberton, Montana. Once she had the chance to marry but it meant leaving Lamberton. Love didn’t prove strong enough.
Doctors Without Borders Nick Keller’s back in the states for Christmas. When he begins to explore the small town his cousin lives in, he’s charmed with the activities, the people and one very special person.
Getting involved wasn’t the plan for either Annie or Nick, but sometimes things happen for a reason. Can a stay-at-home woman give up everything to follow a foot-loose man to the ends of the earth?
The Christmas Cop
Tough homicide detective Jake Morgan was a bah, humbug kind of guy. Getting injured in the line of duty wasn’t the worst thing that could have happened to him—no, it was being assigned as the police department’s Christmas Cop while he recovers. He wasn’t one to deliver any feel-good feelings with kids. He had no idea what kids wanted for Christmas. And he sure to goodness didn’t want to be paired with a pink-hair, do-gooder who looked more like a kid herself than a software engineer.
When Shea O’Reilly is paired up with the man most likely to win the exact-opposite-of-Christmas-spirit award, she’s thrown. It’s her favorite holiday. And her best day would be to make a bunch of kids happy. How can she manage that with the disgruntled Mr. Scrooge she’ll be working with?
A Key West Christmas
Shelly Alexander started a new life in Key West which she loves. When her former boss arrives unexpectedly and insists on spending time with her, she’s thrilled. Until the real reason he’s there is revealed. Embarrassed that she thought more was going on, she runs away too hurt to see him again.
Billionaire Beau Charlmers left the frenetic New York society to buy a sail boat to sail around the world. While in the Caribbean he stops in Key West to see his former assistant. Getting to know her on a personal level is entirely different from the work relationship they had. Still, it should make it easier for her to agree to his newest plan.
Only somewhere along the way everything changes. When Shelly refuses to see him again, he realizes what he really wants is Shelly. But to get her to fall in love now would take a Christmas miracle.
