A Deep Haven wedding at Christmas? With snow glistening in the lane, sleigh bells ringing, and all the world a winter wonderland?magical, right?
Or maybe not, because the snowstorm of the century has buried their small town, and as Vivien Calhoun and Boone Buckam fight the sleet, snow, and ice, just about everything can?and does?happen to skid their big day into the ditch. It'll take all their friends?and a few strangers?to turn this Christmas wedding from a blizzard to a beautiful sight in this charming collection of novellas.
Discover four enchanting stories featuring old friends, and new, who discover that there just might be a happy ending waiting in this winter wonderland?if only they can shovel their way out of trouble.
Book 1: A Beautiful Sight by Rachel D. Russell
Vivien Calhoun has planned the perfect wedding?and it had better be perfect, because the prewedding day jitters have hit her like a snowplow. Boone's recent call-outs with the Deep Haven Crisis Team haven't helped. She just needs a perfect day?and that starts with the perfect dress.
Book 2: We're Happy Tonight by Michelle Sass Aleckson
Detective Duke Lowry hates Christmas, and a wedding at Christmas is simply a double whammy. But he'll show up as Boone's best man, and he'll take charge of Boone's beloved Mustang, getting it detailed and ready for Vivien's crazy picture idea. He'll even put up with Vivien's quirky, somewhat annoying friend, Zuri, from New York City.
Book 3: The Snow is Glistening by Susan May Warren
"Keep the guests happy and don't burn down anything." These are Owen Christiansen's parting words to his cousin, Romeo Young, before leaving him in charge of the Evergreen Resort?and the Wilder wedding venue?while the family vacations in Florida.
But when the blizzard hits, Romeo will have to keep the resort running and the wedding on track. The last thing he needs is a tag-along in the form of a guest. But Owen did say to keep the guests happy...
Book 4: Sleigh Bells Ring by Andrea Christenson
Pastor Bob Brown feels frozen over. And not just from the Minnesota cold. He's numb from the never-ending problems in his parish. He just needs a break, okay? A getaway with his wife seems the perfect Christmas holiday. And he's delighted to have his daughter, Stella, along. Maybe he'll even get some peace and quiet, and hear, deep in his soul, his now-silent calling.
Spend your Christmas in Deep Haven, where the sleigh bells ring and love is listening, in Once Upon a Winter Wonderland.
