THREE STORIES. THREE COUPLES. 
ONE HOLIDAY.

Pretty Near Perfect by Jolene Perry
The last thing Norah needs is to be attracted to anyone – especially in her deceased fiancĂ©'s parents' home. Collin’s starting a new career, and has no business getting involved – especially while staying with his roommate’s family, who very kindly offered to take him in for the holidays. Unfortunately, you just don’t always pick the most convenient time and place to fall for someone.

Six Days of Christmas by Kaylee Baldwin
When Natalie goes home with her best friend for Christmas, she expects plenty of quiet time to work on a winning ad so she can turn her dream internship into her dream job. Instead, she gets time-consuming Christmas festivities, a house full of children, and Jimmy, her best friend’s brother - someone who makes her question everything she’s always thought she wanted.

Twist of Fate by Rachael Anderson
When a postcard meant for Kenzie winds up in Ty's mailbox, Ty's faced with a decision. Should he tell her that her fiancĂ© is breaking up with her and let it ruin her favorite holiday, or should he do what he’s wanted to do since he met her - make a move and hope that he can win her over before she discovers there won’t be a wedding after all?

Pretty Near Perfect
Norah goes to visit her dead boyfriend's family for Christmas. Hoping to put it all behind her. Looked like she was walking into a trap to me! She even has to sleep in his old bedroom, where nothing has changed. I really felt that was unfeeling of his parents. She could have slept in his brother's bedroom. ANYWHERE ELSE. She makes it through the holiday with Collin, the brother's best friend. This story is sweet. Except when the family catches Norah and Collin kissing they act like she's just killed someone. I thought it was super rude of the family to treat her the way they did. I'm obviously having a hard time with the family here. Collin and Norah get to know each other and it is just a sweet story. It got me into the Christmas mood. The romance will sweep you off your feet.

Six Days of Christmas
This was my favorite story! There are so many fun parts!! Natalie and Jimmy have so much fun together that it made me wish I had a guy best friend or a fun friends brother. I loved all the teasing and fun stuff they did together. I'm also crazy over his family! Christmas around the world?! I SO want to do this! I was still thinking about Jimmy 3 days after I finished this novella. Really fun book and I know it will be your favorite too.

Twist of Fate
I loved all the detail in this book. Two people with the same name?! Well, first and last are switched. I loved how this story played out. If was kind of like You've Got Mail. As in, Tom Hanks makes Meg Ryan fall in love with him--not the internet him. Ty wants Kenzie to fall in love with him not as a rebound, but as a first choice. Which is why he doesn't tell her about the postcard her boyfriend sent calling off the wedding. There are lots of Christmas moments to get you in the mood! Loved it!
