My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wonderfully Done! Cindy, Sherry and Stephanie blew me away with these three short Christmas stories. They were beautiful, inspiring and deeply romantic!
I have read Cindy and Sherry's work before and I am a BIG fan of them both! I was equally in love with Stephanie's story and style of writing and would definitely would like to read more from her in the future.
the first story by Cindy is called Halfling and is about Kara, who had to leave her home and family behind in the south because someone found out her secret and she was left disgraced. Now among the Elves of the North Pole she must be doubly sure that know one find out her secret. She thought she had it all under control, that is until Seb walked into her life, the most gorgeous and sexy elf she has ever seen! now the Big Guy wants them to work on this big project together! How will she ever to that and keep her secret safe at the same time?
The second Story by Stephanie is called Aphrodite and is about Affy the daughter of Aphrodite who finds everything in life to be quite difficult especially love. When London society scorns her she seeks out the love of a dashing rouge of a Nobleman at her aunts Christmas Ball, But when he plays with her affections Affy seeks revenge on him and his friends with disastrous results. For Hades lord of the underworld is seeking to lure her into his world and Affy will have to use her powers of love to fight back, not only against the underworld but against the one who has truly stolen her heart.
The Third and Final story by Sherry is called Loving Marigold and is about a young witch named Marigold who at a tender age falls in love with a boy named Jack, the only boy who would defend her when the children would yell and call her names. Then a week later Jacks family moves and she doesn't hear from him again, until nine years later. Jack has moved back to town and he is ready to get back the girl that he lost so long ago.
Nine years and Marigold still thinks about the boy who stood up for her all those years ago. and to see him now only brings back all those feelings again. What will he say when he learns that the rumors about her are true?
masterful work ladies! I couldn't put the book down! the stories were amazing! if you haven't read this wonderful piece of work it should defiantly be on your TBR list as it is a for sure read for the holiday season!

Banished from the South Pole, Kara tries to carve out a new life among the elves of the North. It’s not easy with a secret to protect—a secret she's cursed with by the unusual circumstances of her heritage: half-elf, half-fairy. In the North, she’s assigned to work with Seb on a special project. He's the most gorgeous elf she’s ever seen - and the orneriest.
As if being banished wasn’t punishment enough.
Seb introduces her to Trystin, a fairy from the nearby fairy forest. Trystin discerns her secret right away and promises to teach her how to use the powers given to her by the very thing she’s fighting to keep hidden.
Nothing is simple for Aphrodite’s daughter, especially love.
Scorned by society in regency England, Affry longs for romance. Upon encountering a dashing nobleman at her aunty's Christmas' ball, Affry gets caught in a lovely intrigue with disastrous results. Worse, she wins the interest of the gods.
Now the furies of the underworld and Hades himself are after her. When all is fair in war, Affry must use love as her weapon—but only for the one who’s stolen her heart.
Loving Marigold by Sherry Gammon
Young Marigold Yarrow has a secret. She’s also in love with Jack Mahoney. In the middle of her ninth grade year, Jack's family up and moves to Port Fare, New York, leaving the small town of Sugar Maple, West Virginia - and Marigold - far behind.
Nine years later Jack and Marigold meet again. They join forces to weed out the shady Abbott boys. The unscrupulous brothers are illegally selling moonshine near her home on Sugar Maple Ridge. And they'll do anything to get Marigold to leave the ridge. Anything.
This time it may be magic that tears Jack and Marigold apart.
