Christmas with an Angel Release Day Blitz

It's been eight long years since Michael Gallagher has laid eyes on Shay Angel, back when he was a boy from the most prominent family in town and she was a girl from the wrong side of the tracks. But he hadn't cared about their differences—until one bad decision landed her in jail.

That was years ago and now he's back in Harmony Harbor for the holidays. So when Shay goes missing, Michael is intent on finding her—and finding out if their sizzling attraction is still there. But he's now a district attorney, and it looks like Shay is once again on the wrong side of the law.

LUKE Release Day Blitz

In the New York Times bestselling tradition of Linda Lael Miller and Diana Palmer, comes the second book in R.C. Ryan's new series about the Malloy brothers, Montana ranchers who find love while uncovering the dark secrets of their past.

Wild. Reckless. Stubborn. That's Luke Malloy in a nutshell. The solitary life of a rancher and the untamed Montana wilderness make him feel alive-and nothing will ever change that. Not even being thrown from his horse and forced to accept a stranger's help. The fact that this stranger is a beautiful blonde with a passion for ranching that rivals his own doesn't hurt. But there's a secret she's hiding, and Luke won't rest until he uncovers it...

Ingrid Larsen doesn't need anyone's help. Not with managing her family's ranch. Not with raising her little sister. And certainly not with the mysterious incidents occurring on her property. When this too-sexy-for-his-own-good cowboy needs a place to recover, she hopes he'll be in and out in no time flat. But just as she's beginning to trust Luke's promise of protection, Ingrid's secret threatens to tear them apart.

My Review of the Books:

"Celebration after Dark"

I received this ARC of this story in exchange for an honest, unbiased review. This is the first book that I have read of Marie Forces and one of a handful of stories that you can read in the All I Want for Christmas Collection. I really enjoyed this book and found that Marie did a great job creating well developed characters and giving you enough of a back story on the main characters as well as the supporting characters that you could catch up who the McCarthy family was with out having to read the other books in this series. In addition to creating a well developed characters she also did a great job of setting the scene. Marie really grabs your attention from the first page of the story and holds until the very end.

"A Dundee Christmas"

I received this ARC of this story in exchange for an honest, unbiased review. I have read many of Brenda Novak's books in the past so I am aware of the style of writing that she uses as well as the story telling that she uses. However, her writing just gets better and better with each book. I enjoyed seeing how she developed Cierra's story from start to finish and that she makes the story as realistic as possible. By having the story as realistic as possible it shows that not everything is sugar plums and roses and that it isn't an easy road to a happy ending.

"The Night Before Christmas"

I received this ARC of this story in exchange for an honest, unbiased review. This the first book that I have read of Melinda Curtis's. I thought that she did a good job giving you a short background to why both the characters were the way they were. In addition, I thought she did a great job of mixing seriousness, humor and laughter into the story. Lastly, I really enjoyed seeing how the characters grew and developed throughout the course of the story. I am definitely interested in reading more stories from her.
