From Booklist

Three contemporary tales celebrate the joy and love of Christmas. In Brenda Novak's poignant "Just Like the Ones We Used to Know," all Angela's adopted daughter Kayla wants for Christmas is her father, and now a surprise holiday trip gives Angela the chance to let Matt Jackson meet the daughter he never knew he had. In Melinda Curtis' humorous "The Night before Christmas," limousine driver Emma Roberts teaches hotel and casino owner Simon Castle the true meaning of Christmas. And Anna Adams gives her hero another chance at romance with his pregnant ex-girlfriend when the two reunite on a Christmas train trip in the sweet "All the Christmases to Come." John Charles

This review is from: Once Upon a Christmas: Just Like the Ones We Used to Know/The Night Before Christmas/All the Christmases to Come (Harlequin Superromance Anthology, No 1380) (Mass Market Paperback)

"Just Like the Ones We Used To Know" by Brenda Novak. Angela Forrester wants to give her beloved foster child Kayla the gift she desires for Christmas; in a school assignment Kayla wants to meet her biological father, Matthew Jackson in Virginia City, who is unaware that he sired a daughter.

"The Night before Christmas" by Melinda Curtis. Instead of his usual limo driver who is off for the Christmas holiday with his family, Emma Roberts drives Simon Castle to a key business meeting involving union reps who think he is a rat. She teaches him more than just the meaning of the holiday season as he learns to humanize his heart.

"All the Christmases to Come" by Anna Adams. Single father Andrew Durham and Rachel Ford love one another, but disagree over having children. He wants none and she wants some. They break up since they have no room for compromise until he learns his Rachel is carrying his second child. Now he must persuade her he wants her, his offspring, and his unborn to form a happy family with him.

These are three lighthearted warm second chance at love Yuletide tales.
