Christmas Bells and Wedding Vows

Christmas Bells and Wedding Vows features three novels sure to get you into the Christmas spirit!

Sometimes, novellas get a rap for being too rushed and underdeveloped. I've read a few of those, but I felt that each of the novellas in this collection had plenty of depth to them. Well done to each of the authors!

Claiming the Cowgirl: Of course, a story featuring a cute three-year-old boy is bound to be heart-warming. I loved watching the way Weston took care of Serena and her son–and of course, the romance was very sweet. I wasn't so fond of all the deception in the beginning, but Jody did resolve it well.

Doctor's Snowflake Bride: I really loved the opening scene for this story. It hooked me right away and made me chuckle. The novella read quickly–maybe too quickly where the romance was involved. I was a little skeptical about that element, but overall, it was a fun little story.

Marrying the Mountain Man's Best Friend: I am very much loving the new Coulter brother series by Misty Beller, so I could hardly wait to get to this story. And I was not disappointed. Misty's novella is easily my favorite out of the whole collection. What's not to love about a man who would make such self-less choices? The romance felt very genuine and real, and I was cheering for Two stones and Heidi to make their marriage “real.”

Throughout each of the novellas, the mention of snow, spices, and Christmas trees definitely bring the Christmas-feeling. And the marriage-of-convenience trope definitely gets more complicated when the holidays get involved–or maybe it becomes not so convenient.

Christmas Bells and Wedding Vows makes a perfect collection for readers who love a clean western with a sweet romance.
