The 12 Brides of Christmas (Barbour, October 2015) is a compilation of twelve Christmas novellas featuring a special gift. Michelle’s story, The Yuletide Bride, is one of the twelve and you can read about it here.
A perfect read for the Christmas season, these twelve stories are 15,000 words long–readable in an hour or so–and provide a sweet romance set against the challenges of pioneer life in 19th century America. The settings range from Mississippi and Illinois across the sweep of country to Arizona and Wyoming. Featuring spunky heroines–some with an attitude–dangerous circumstances, like meeting a mail order groom holding a gun, The 12 Brides of Christmas provides snippets of a different way of handling Christmas many years ago.
