Yuletide Homecoming by Linda Goodnight
Five years ago, Rafe Westfield broke his fiancée's heart when he left to join the military. Now the battle-scarred soldier is back in Snowglobe. Amy Caldwell tries to keep her distance, but the holidays, family and a sweet stray dog keep bringing her and Rafe together…maybe this time, forever.

A Family's Christmas Wish by Lissa Manley
Abandoned by her husband when she was eight months pregnant, single mother Sara Kincaid vowed to rely only on herself. But then she makes a deal with handsome widowed father Owen Larsen to provide babysitting services in exchange for his carpentry work on her inn. Can two pint-size matchmakers help them see beyond the past in time for Christmas?
A Snowglobe Christmas is perfect to get in the Christmas mood! Snowglobe town is just like a those movies, lots of snow, lights, very beautiful.

Yuletide Homecoming is the story of Amy, who is coming back home after a few years away. She's ready to move on, forget what happened last time when her fiancee broke her heart, but she isn't expecting the man to come back home too! Amy and Rafe are still in love, but their past is difficult to forget. Amy is afraid to be abandoned again, who wouldn't after your fiancee breaking up with you? Rafe had a good reason, but I don't think he ever understood Amy's feelings. But anyway, they are a cute couple, I just wished they really talk instead about their issues.

A Family's Christmas Wish is the story of Sara, a single mother who was also abandoned by every man she ever met in her life. That's why she's so attracted to Owen, who is an excellent single father. While their daughters bond, they start to share a relationship that will turn into more than just a few days of fun. But first they have to overcome their fears, and give themselves the opportunity to have a family.

Both were sweet stories, very cute and charming. A Snowglobe Christmas, even if predictable, was a great way to start my Christmas reading, it just made me feel more excited for these holidays!

    The story of Sara sounds really touching. I am not in the christmas reading mood yet, but sounds like one to remember.

Welcome to the Banned Books Week Hop giveaway! Hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer and I Read Banned Books . I don't believe in banning books (or anything at all). I believe that we are capable of thinking for ourselves and we are able (and have the right) to choose what we want to read/see/think/believe. The Banned Books Week is basically a week where readers decide to defend their right to read whatever they want. It's the perfect week to decide four yourself it you want to read read that book some people is tying to challenge or ban... Intellectual freedom—the freedom to access information and express ideas, even if the information and ideas might be considered unorthodox or unpopular—provides the foundation for Banned Books Week. BBW stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of unorthodox or unpopular viewpoints for all who wish to read and access them.  More information about the Banned Books Week here. I'm sure there is a lot to say abo...
