"Silver Bells" by Debbie Macomber. Philip raised his teenage daughter, but never expected her to find him a wife when he never wanted to remarry. However the chosen one Carrie makes him reconsider his stance on marriage.

"The Perfect Holiday" by Sherryl Woods. Aunt Mae decides Trace is the perfect holiday present for her single niece Savannah. She expects them to be engaged by Christmas.

"Under the Christmas" Tree by Robyn Carr. Hairstylist Annie stops to admire a Virgin River Christmas tree only to find eight newborn puppies underneath it. Obviously abandoned, Annie finds the town `s vet Nathaniel to help with the dogs.

These are three warm holiday romances starring wonderful lead protagonists.

Silver Bells by Debbie Macomber
3 1/2 stars
A follow-up to one of the Manning stories (The Manning Brides: Marriage Of Inconvenience\Stand-In Wife). Carrie Weston is the stepdaughter of Jason Manning and is now all grown up. She finds herself on the other end of the same situation as Jason and her mother were in years ago with a meddling teenager trying to play matchmaker.
Typical Macomber. Nothing special in this one. Seemed a little too much like all her others. The kids play a big role in this one like many of her other books.

The Perfect Christmas by Sherryl Woods
4 stars
A sweet, yet predictable story. Savannah is a single mom who inherits an Inn in Vermont from her Aunt Mae. Trace is a workaholic who was close friends with Mae and promised to spend Christmas at her Inn even after her death.
Another story where a kid plays a very big part in the romance, which can get a little tiresome, but still cute.

Under the Christmas Tree by Robyn Carr (Virgin River)
5 stars
Similar to "A Virgin River Christmas" in style. Two new characters (Annie McKenzie & Nate Jensen) meet and find romance over a litter of puppies. Jack, Preacher, and a couple of the kids (Christopher & David) play small roles in the book, so we get to meet up with some old favorites. Annie and Nate are both great characters and have great chemistry. It was the perfect length for a Christmas anthology.

Lovely holiday stories in this collection. The book as a whole is the perfect thing to read at the holidays when things are stressed and you just want a nice little story that isn't too detailed or filled with negativity.

This is the first book I read on my Kindle. It was a great book and super read. All the stories were excellent. Excellent description of the book.

This is a trilogy of three Christmas stories by three great writers. All three stories mix Christmas and romance in a good way and get you ready for the holidays. I really enjoyed reading this book on my Kindle.

For one of the first e-books i've read on my Kindle fire, this warmed my heart and really put me in the spirit of the Holidays. I recommend to anyone who likes light reads around the Holidays. I would've given it 5 stars if each of the 3 stories were just a tad longer. Overall, I really recommend this book.

Debbie Macomber writes great books. A lot of our friends like her too so we exchange books. Her stories are very interesting to read and keep you reading long after you should stop.

This contains one of Debbie Macomber's older stories, but it is still delightful! A good read.

Debbie Macomber is my favorite author and all her books are just wonderful. I am always thrilled when a new one comes out.

This book is one of many by this author and friends that I have read before. The stories were delightful and entertaining.
