Summer 1959. It was a different time, a quieter and gentler time. America was at peace or rather it was a time between wars. For Davey Malloy it was the start of summertime in Saint Louis, a week after Memorial Day and days after his twelfth birthday. He now had his freedom and the entire summer to do whatever he wanted.

When a New England Christmas reunites two lifelong friends, romance blooms. From the author of Christmas in Vermont. Miracles are like snowflakes--no two are alike, but each one is precious and beautiful. This Christmas, Dr. Beth Harding could use a few miracles. The hospital she runs in River Dale, New Hampshire, is being shut down, unless she can convince the Scrooge-like board to save it. At least her closest friend, firefighter Logan Mitchell, is home for the holidays to offer a broad shoulder to lean on. In California, Logan is a smoke jumper, but jumping into a romance with his best friend scares him more than any forest fire. After losing his parents at sixteen, Logan was taken in by Beth's family. As kids, they were like brother and sister. Now they're grown up, and sparks keep flying between them. If only Beth wasn't already engaged. Maybe with a Christmas miracle or two, Beth can keep those hospital doors open--and two dear friends can finally allow their one true love to blossom.

The women themselves are bisexual, lesbian, heterosexual, while others refuse to categorize their own sexualities. Th...

Gather your informants. Do whatever is necessary to ensure that the gangs are smashed up. We will never ask you to divulge your sources of information. ...
