Book Description
When Christmas Eve leads to disaster of epic proportions, fate should owe you a do-over. Shasta A chance encounter with a Harley-riding Santa and a bulging sack of goodies on the worst day of the year turns my world upside down. Too bad I'm on a man diet, especially from silver foxes who give me heart palpitations and hot flashes. I cling to willpower like a starving woman front and center at a buffet and say no to each of his swoon-worthy attempts to rekindle the romance I walked away from decades before. Duke She's got so much baggage I'm tripping over it in my efforts to show her how great we could still be together. When she makes an offer most men would jump at, I almost accept. But everything I've ever wanted has slipped through my fingers and I won't let us be another casualty. Just one question: how do you woo a woman who has sworn off all men forever? Christmas Eve Do-Over is a second-chance romance novella for the over-40 crowd in the Beach Squad series, written by a USA Today Bestselling author. Read as a stand-alone or at the end of the series. Warning: reading this novella will give you a ’90s song mind virus and make you believe in second chances no matter how badly you've been burned.

A Christmas Story
Author: Jean Shepherd
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0307768732
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
A beloved, bestselling classic of humorous and nostalgic Americana—the book that inspired the equally classic Yuletide film and the live musical on Fox. The holiday film A Christmas Story, first released in 1983, has become a bona fide Christmas perennial, gaining in stature and fame with each succeeding year. Its affectionate, wacky, and wryly realistic portrayal of an American family’s typical Christmas joys and travails in small-town Depression-era Indiana has entered our imagination and our hearts with a force equal to It’s a Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street. This edition of A Christmas Story gathers together in one hilarious volume the gems of autobiographical humor that Jean Shepherd drew upon to create this enduring film. Here is young Ralphie Parker’s shocking discovery that his decoder ring is really a device to promote Ovaltine; his mother and father’s pitched battle over the fate of a lascivious leg lamp; the unleashed and unnerving savagery of Ralphie’s duel in the show with the odious bullies Scut Farkas and Grover Dill; and, most crucially, Ralphie’s unstoppable campaign to get Santa—or anyone else—to give him a Red Ryder carbine action 200-shot range model air rifle. Who cares that the whole adult world is telling him, “You’ll shoot your eye out, kid”? The pieces that comprise A Christmas Story, previously published in the larger collections In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash and Wanda Hickey’s Night of Golden Memories, coalesce in a magical fashion to become an irresistible piece of Americana, quite the equal of the film in its ability to warm the heart and tickle the funny bone.
