Yuletide Kiss

By: Madeline Hunter, Mary Jo Putney, Sabrina Jeffries

Narrated by: Beverley A. Crick

The reigning queens of Regency romance return with another delightful Christmas collection of three sparkling holiday romances, as stranded travelers find merriment, mistletoe, and holiday romance awaiting at a quaint country inn....

An Unexpected Christmas Gift by Madeline Hunter

Jenna Waverly has closed her inn, anticipating a blissfully quiet Christmas, until a snowstorm brings the first of several strangers to her property. Lucas Avonwood, as charming as he is secretive, is on a mission to track down a scoundrel, but the inn’s lovely owner is giving him a more compelling reason to stay....

When We Finally Kiss Good-Night by Sabrina Jeffries

When Flora Younger first met Konrad Juncker, she thought she’d found her match, only to have her hopes dashed. Konrad is now a famous playwright whose plays Flora has secretly panned in reviews. But a chance meeting in a secluded inn may help them rewrite this star-crossed romance....

When Strangers Meet by Mary Jo Putney

Kate McLeod is shocked to find that her fellow guest in the snowbound inn is the dashing soldier who may or may not be her husband. Daniel Faringdon barely remembers that long-ago night when he rescued her from disaster, but the desire they discover now will be impossible to forget, or to ignore....

Very nice

A very nice story of a group stranded at an inn, and they break the story down into individual stories, and I enjoy historical fiction romance. Christmas stories all happy endings, and a nice tasty treat of a read.

Pleasant surprise!!!

Every story was engaging. I loved that they all took place at the same Inn. I cannot say one was better than the other. They were all very good with the perfect narrator.

Interesting way to tell a story

This was indeed three books but it was actually three parts of the same story. It came as a surprise to me so I thought I’d share. Each story follows one individual couple that are all at the same inn at the same time so if the first story seems incomplete, go on to the next one .. and so on. It was an interesting way to tell the entire story

Three for the Best

The continuing story told from three different views. Each author uses the story of the first to write another part of the story.

Book 1= 3 stars, Book 2= 4 stars, Book 3= 5 stars!

This was a special and unique way of telling a heartfelt Christmas story. The book was told as 3 separate but overlapping love stories of the same event.

In order of enjoyment.
Book 3 When Strangers Meet was my absolute favorite. It is a second chance love and an unexpected plot. The romance value is high & the only one that is completely chaste. The FMC is totally her own person, strong. intelligent but kind. The MMC is sophisticated but vulnerable and 100% a gentleman. It is obvious he truly loves his gal, but there are obstacles to overcome.

Book 2 is about valuing a person's character and allowing love to take root in the most unusual circumstances. The love story between these two is quite straightforward but lovely. The scenes are sexy but told with couth & restraint. The ending is a real HEA fairytale.l as the MMC transforms into a white knight slaying his damsels monsters without worrying her pretty little head (I appreciated & resented that part 😉)

Finally, my least favorite was 1st book, When we finally say goodnight = 3 stars. The reason for their separation and his 8 year hiatus didn't correlate with the ardent profession of love in the end. For me, the FMC was too desperate and anxious to forgive anything just to marry. The MMC was too wrapped up in his own sorrow to truly respect his partner. Even though he learns of the damage he caused, he was still too pesimistic, selfish, and cavalier about her circumstances & pain. In the end he didn't deserve her.
