Aloha to Juliana Stone and THE CHRISTMAS HE LOVED HER

The Christmas He Loved Her by Juliana Stone

Holiday Romance Week continues with Juliana Stone's THE CHRISTMAS HE LOVED HER:

All he wants this Christmas is her.

In the small town of Crystal Lake, Christmas is a time for sledding, hot chocolate, and cozying up to the fire with those you love. For Jake Edwards, it’s also time to come home and face his past. He thought there would never be anything harder than losing his brother. Turns out there is: falling in love with his brother’s widow, Raine.

Ever since they were little, Jesse was the Edwards brother who was always there for her, and Jake was the one who knew just how to push her buttons. Raine can’t imagine a life without them, which is why it was doubly decimating when Jake left town after his brother’s sudden death. Now he’s back and she doesn’t know whether to be mad or thrilled. Maybe both. Maybe it will be the perfect chance for both of them to finally find happiness again.

I am giving away a print copy of THE CHRISTMAS HE LOVE HER plus THE SUMMER HE CAME HOME:

Sometimes the best place to find love is right back where you started…

Falling asleep in a different bed every night has made it easy for Cain Black to forget his past. It’s been ten years since he packed his guitar and left Crystal Lake to chase his dreams. Now tragedy has forced him home again. And though Cain relishes the freedom of the road, one stolen moment with Maggie O’Rourke makes him wonder if he’s missing out on something bigger than fame.

For Maggie—single mother and newly settled in Crystal Lake—love is a luxury she just can’t afford. Sure, she appreciates the tall, dark and handsome looks of prodigal son Cain Black. But how long can she expect the notorious hellion to stay?

The last thing either of them wants is something complicated. But sometimes love has its own plans.

  3. Fall is my favorite season. There's a crispness to the air that I love. I also love the festivals, the decorations, and the bounty of fruits and vegetables at this time of year.

  4. My favorite season is winter. I love the crisp, chilly air. I love snow (not shoveling lol) when it's dusting rooftops and trees. And I love that there are no bugs :)

  11. Hi Kim
    Mine has to be autumn! I love trees and love the different colors of the leaves this time of year. Back when my 2 teens were little every year we made books with all kinds of leaves in them and we still have them. They are 18 and 19 years old now nut both girls still want to keep their books of leaves even though they don't collect them any more.

  12. Living here in Florida, I have to say that winter is my favorite season. By then, the heat is much more bearable, and the humidity is really low.

  13. I love the Spring time. The greens are getting greener, the flowering plants are starting to show their colors. The swimming pool is once again tempting as is the ocean! Its a time of long walks and enjoying nature!

  14. My fave season is Autumn-into-Winter. :-) It's hard to separate the two for me. The holidays and prep for them begins...cooler weather hits (which I prefer to heat)...and my best season for reading romances comes upon me...yea! The holidays used to be the busiest time of year for me and there was little time for reading. But now my children are gone and living lives on their own, I can read to my heart's content and the cooler weather, snuggling into a lap robe with my darling Yorkie, Maggie, with a fire in the fireplace, and a cup of chai tea in my hand...aaaahhh! Christmas stories are what I live for...the best time for romance for me! I get to snuggle with my hubby too...while during the hottest parts of the year I sleep without any covers...and no hubby. jdh2690@gmail.com

  16. Spring is my favorite season. I enjoy watching the garden come alive again.

  17. For me it's always been spring. After the cold of winter and all that white or worse, the brown, I can't wait for things to turn green and to leave boots and coats behind and glory in the sun! Both my daughters were planned for the spring and I was so happy that that's the way it happened.

  21. I love the summer - no jackets or heavy clothes. Love to be able to just slip on sandals. And no worry about being cold.

  26. My favorite is Spring. It is a season of warmer weather, the trees start to blossom, and all plant life comes alive. Unfortunately it also heralds the season of grass starting to grow so it will need to be mowed before you know it.
