No Place Like Home, by Linda Lael Miller, Kat Martin, Mary Carter, Laura Florand

There's nothing more festive than a winter romance, and in these heart-warming stories, love is a gift that can take you by surprise. . .

The 24 Days Of Christmas by Linda Lael Miller

A matchbox advent calendar first brought Frank Rayner and Addie Hutton together. But that was years ago. There's no way the miracles of Christmas--and the magic of true love--could possibly be hidden under one of its tiny flaps. Or could they?

Christmas Angel by Kat Martin

When Angel Summers' first love, Josh Coltraine, joined the Army, she vowed to hate him forever. But now he's back in Savannah for the holidays--wishing for a miracle that could heal both their hearts.

The Christmas Carousel by Mary Carter

Single mom Georgia Bradley can't afford to fight the developers who want to tear down her beloved Rhode Island auction house--especially Adam Cavalier. But when she receives a mysterious gift, Adam becomes intrigued with its origin--and with Georgia. . .

A Rose In Winter By Laura Florand

Allegra Caldron knew the rule never to talk to strangers. But on a cold winter night in Provence, she breaks that rule--and more--with an irresistible man. Raoul Rosier seems thrillingly dangerous, yet why does Allegra feel so safe with him--even when she believes he's a thief?

From Publishers Weekly
Bestseller Miller (Big Sky Wedding) anchors an enjoyable holiday collection with plenty of Christmas cheer but limited sparkle. In Carter's busy The Christmas Carousel, auction house owner Georgia refuses to sell her property to handsome investor Adam. But Adam is more than he seems, and a mysterious Christmas gift that arrives for Georgia gives her a chance to reconsider. Florand's A Rose in Winter is the steamiest entry: when American Ph.D. candidate Allegra decides to stay in Provence over the holidays, she connects in and out of bed with Raoul, an alpha male with a heart. Miller's The 24 Days of Christmas brings Addie back to her hometown of Pine Crossing and her ex-fiancé, Frank; their romantic reunion is upstaged by their family responsibilities. Martin's Reconstruction-era Christmas Angel is a historical oddball among contemporaries, but it stands out more for its tight story and intense romance, in which Southern belle Angel reunites with Joshua, her former love turned Union army doctor. The novellas' diversity makes for a satisfying, if not stellar, anthology. (Dec.)

5 stars for the first two stories ony
By DL
I bought this book because I love Laura Florand's books. Her story is the second one in the anthology. The first story is by Mary Carter. As far as I can tell, Mary Carter is a very new author. I liked the story she wrote. It's a bit fanciful, but then again, this is a Christmas romance anthology. The story is a 1 on a scale of 1 to 10 for heat. I'm curious if Mary Carter's other stories follow a similar trend. So, having finished that chaste but sweet story, I started on Laura Florand's entry.

If Mary Carter's story about a carousel was a 1 on the heat scale, Laura Florand's was a 10. It was surprising to me that the publisher/editor/someone? thought putting these stories back-to-back was a good idea. I didn't have a problem with it, but I could see some readers being surprised. It won't be surprising to anyone that reads my review history that I loved what Laura Florand wrote. I encourage any new readers that haven't read her work before to give this one a try. It is the first in a new series. She is known for her Chocolate series. The characters in this story know some of the characters from the Chocolate series, but this is paving the way for the Rose series. I liked it a lot. I loved the return to Provence, albeit in winter. Laura Florand also sets up what appears to be a plot arc (is that what it's called?) for the series with the meddling older relatives. I can't wait to see what's next!

As for the Linda Lael Miller and Kat Martin installments, I did not realize they were reprints. The Linda Lael Miller was ok, but it was familiar. I've probably read it before. The Kat Martin story was familiar too, so again, probably read it before. I cared for it the least...and I've been a Kat Martin fan for a long time. It was probably that her story was historical (post US Civil War time period) and didn't fit with the three contemporary stories. I read historical and contemporary romances equally as much, but I don't think they belong in an anthology together.

Having said all this, I will parrot the other reviewers. Buy this for Florand (and Carter). Now pardon me while I go look up Mary Carter's other amazon offerings since I already have all of Florand's.

No Place Like Home
This anthology has 4 Christmas books included from 4 different authors:
Hot steamy romances.
.
The Christmas Carousel by Mary Carter
Georgia grew up with her sister and parents and every Christmas her dad would take her to the carousel. He ran the Trash and Treasures Barn and made a living at it.
She had met a sad girl one day and she was afraid to get on the ponies by herself so she held Georgia's hand. Later she learns the little sad girl died of leukemia. They left a box and a picture which has gone unopened.
They live in a RI town where the tourist dollar is large during the summer months. Years later her father has died and it's only her and her son, next door to the bakery running the treasures shop.
Her sister's husband has lost his job in CA and they want to cash in on selling the business that they own 1/2 of to the developers. Georgia with help from the other local businesses hopes to keep the developers away.
Others have made up their minds and Georgia has to sell and learns Adam is one she has to deal with. He soon explains how he knows her and he helps her open the big box from decades ago. Love learning of the RI facts as I am a native myself.
Love the connection and the charity to others of the carousel horse in this book.
.
A rose in Winter by Laura Diorand
Allegra Caldrone is a researcher and she meets Raoul. When she meets him again the next day and learns his last name she realizes exactly the trade his family is in.
Love the mystery of the perfume box and how the rose is connected. Family holiday traditions were interesting to learn about.
.
The 24 Days of Christmas by Linda Lael Miller
Frank Raynor along with his 7 year old daughter Lizzie rent to Addie Hutton who is now in charge of Henry. Lizzie meets them all and opens an advent box-one gift a day til Christmas morning.
The house used to belong to Addie's parents, now she's in the servants quarters.
His wife had died and left Lizzie pretending to be an angel, especially now for the school play. Henry is Addie's ex husbands step son so while he's on his new honeymoon the child was sent to him. She does find a job in town and they all draw closer with each of the gifts that are opened together every morning.
Miracles, that's what they all need..
.
Christmas Angel by Kat Martin
1860's and the train has derailed spilling all the goods in the woods. Angela Summers heads that way trailing Josh Coltrian, now a doctor who had kissed her one winter years ago.
Josh tried not to think of Angel but a woman he met in PA but it wasn't working... Angela can't get past the fact that he fought for the enemy.
Loved hearing about her charity work and how she involves everybody to help...
I received this book from The Kennsington Books in exchange for my honest review

Buy it for Florand and Miller
By RTS
As a follower of Laura Florand's La Vie en Roses series, I was looking forward to this short story and discovering some authors in this anthology. Outside of the loose theme of trying to find a place that feels like home, these 4 stories could not be more divergent. I like anthologies because you get little gifts of sweet fun, however sometimes authors rush the details and leaves the reader trying to fill the gaps...which was true for all the stories.

1. Christmas Carousel by Mary Carter
Georgia has fond memories of riding a carousel with her father around Christmas. One year, she meets a dying girl named Cindy. Fast forward: Georgia's a widow with a son, runs an auction house in a sleepy old downtown which developers are trying to buy and make into a mall, then she receives a carousel horse from her deceased father for Christmas in front of one of the developers, who is Cindy's brother, Ben. Did you follow all that? Ben and Georgia decide to track down who actually sent the horse and get stuck in some back water area in Rhode Island during a snow storm. There was so much going on in this story, I couldn't feel any connection between Ben and Georgia outside of guilty gratitude that does not equate passion. 2 out of 5 stars.

2. A Rose in Winter by Laura Florand
Allegra is in the south of France for Christmas while she is researching for her PHD. Raoul is head of the African division of his Rosier family business but wants to come home. They have a one night stand, which leads them to a misunderstanding in the morning. As they confront each other, they both learn of each other's desire to feel at ease with themselves and their families. The beginning of this story was a bit stilted, but getting past all that, you see the heart of both Allegra and Raoul, along with some feisty Rosier family members who, hopefully with have books of their own. Steamiest of the 4 stories. 4 out of 5 stars.

3. 24 Days of Christmas by Linda Lael Miller originally published in 2004
Addie's world crashed down around her after an article she wrote had her fired and running away from LA to her home town on CO. Calling on her former fiancé, Frank, who is now the town Chief of Police and widow, she is trying to start over. Then her ex husband dumps her step son on her while he is away on his honeymoon. This story was the BEST of the 4 and really delved into what "home" means and if it can be found in a place or a person. Each of the characters were sweet and flawed. It made you want I make your own advent calendar to follow along. 5 stars!

4. Christmas Angel by Kat Martin originally published in 1997! Set is post Civil War Savannah. Angel never forgave her love, Josh for leaving her to fight for the North. Now he is back in his "blue belly Yank" uniform as a Dr. running the local, dilapidated hospital filled with wounded soldiers. I stopped reading this and couldn't finish. Southern Civil War settings are not my thing, but even so, I just couldn't get into the characters. I didn't care that she lost her plantation, or how they still felt tingly around each other. I am not sure how the publishers chose this story, but it was a DNF for me. 0 stars.

Overall, I would have bought this book for Laura Florand, but was lucky enough to receive an Advanced Reading Copy. I was pleasantly surprised by Ms. Miller's story, but the other 2 were a waste of time.
