Under a Christmas Sky
Author: Sharon Sobel
Publisher: ImaJinn Books
ISBN: 1611948533
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
Crashing through the snow . . . Julia, the newly widowed Lady Leighton Kingswood, is hardly in the mood for the holidays. But thanks to the persistence of Julia's sister-in-law, Lady Laurentia Howard, she soon finds herself braving the dreadful weather to venture out to the Howard estate to celebrate Christmas. She's hoping for a peaceful interlude . . . until the coach crashes and the driver disappears, leaving her for dead. The horrid weather is making Willem Wakefield wish he were still in the East Indies. But he's on a diplomatic mission to deliver some important documents to Princess Charlotte, who'll be attending the Howard's Yuletide celebration. Except on the way there, he comes across an overturned carriage and finds a beautiful woman on the verge of freezing to death. Once he has her safely in his coach, he realizes his only option is to take her to the Howard estate with him. But it isn't long before he realizes that he'd like nothing more than to keep his Lady Frost all to himself. And for much longer than just the holidays . . . For the past five years Sharon Sobel has spent the hottest days of New England summers writing about the coldest days of English winters. She is the author of fifteen works of romance fiction, including novellas in the four Regency Yuletide Collections and two novels published by ImaJinn Books. Her short story "The Jilt" was selected for inclusion in Second Chances, published by Romance Writers of America, from which she received a Service Award in 2017. She earned a PhD in English Language and Literature from Brandeis University and is an English professor at a Connecticut college, where she co-chaired the Connecticut Writers' Conference for five years. An eighteenth century Connecticut farmhouse, where Sharon and her husband raised their three children, has provided inspiration for either the period or the setting for all of her books.

Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
The Heider family huddles together in the basement, wondering if this is the last day they will be together, if this is the last day of their lives. Its Munich, Germany, in 1945, the day American tanks are rolling in. Annelieses father finds a white sheet, ready to hang it from the attic window, hoping he times it right. Too early, and German SS forces could open fire. Too late, and the Allied forces could shoot. Thank god, its not the Russians. And so begins the memoir of Anneliese Heider Tisdale, who grew up in Germany during World War II. Hers is a universal and timeless tale of war and death, of fear and deprivation, of the inventiveness of children who want to dance and wear new clothes but instead have childhoods filled with bandages and bombs, who return to school one fall to find the crucifix in their classroom replaced with a picture of the Fhrer.

It'll take a Christmas miracle to bring these polar opposites together... Evie Parata was never one to stand still for long. She breezed out of her small town as a teenager to see the world and never looked back. But lately, the years of constant motion have weighed on her. Going back home to regroup seemed like a great plan. Getting stranded outside her ex's bar? Not part of the plan. Finding out she might have lingering feelings (and maybe some new ones) for the sexy Irishman? Disaster. While Davy O'Connor is willing to invite Evie into his home, falling for her is another matter entirely. He's been there, done that, and still has the emotional scars to show for it. But as it turns out, Evie's changed. She's older, wiser, and more gorgeous than ever. And despite his best intentions, he can't seem to keep his mind-or his hands-off her... which will surely be a problem when she inevitably skips town. Again. Can Evie and Davy overcome their painful past to take a second chance at love? Or are they destined to go their separate ways when Christmas ends? Second Chance Christmas is a steamy small-town romance set in stunning New Zealand.
