Christmas Promises at the Garland Street Market 3. Moonlight and Mistletoe at the Christmas Wedding ----- Christmas Miracles at the Little Log Cabin Holly is looking for a change. There has to be more to life than the long hours she works as an editor in New York City, despite what everyone says. What she doesn’t expect when she leaves the city behind is to meet Mitch, a recluse who’s hiding more than she realises. Mitch spends his days hidden away in a little log cabin in Inglenook Falls, where he owns a Christmas tree farm. He speaks to people only when necessary, so when Holly falls into his life, he’s not sure how to react. All he knows is that something needs to change if he wants to get his life back on track. Along with friends Cleo and Darcy, Holly is determined to bring joy back to Mitch’s life, but will he appreciate their interference? And when a business proposition throws everything up in the air, will it do more harm than good? Christmas Promises at the Garland Street Market When Amelia arrives in Manhattan to help Cleo at her knitting stall, she’s expecting a peaceful holiday. But soon she’s busy trying to get her surly nephew Kyle and his mum to work through their problems. Amelia is used to putting others first, but is this one challenge too far? Single dad Nathan wants to give his daughter, Scarlett, the world after he failed so dismally before. But in trying to give her everything, will he push her too far and lose her forever? Meanwhile, Cleo’s fiancé Dylan is pressuring her to set a date for the wedding, but with her stepdaughter Ruby against the idea and creating mayhem wherever she can, Cleo doubts she'll ever manage to start planning what should be the best day of their lives. Moonlight and Mistletoe at the Christmas Weddings It’s Thanksgiving and friends are gathered at the Inglenook Inn to get ready for the wedding of the year as Cleo and Dylan prepare to tie the knot on Christmas Eve. Not all is going smoothly, but Kaisha is determined nothing will ruin her best friend’s wedding. Cleo is more a sister to her than her own, and if Kaisha has to put her own dreams on hold, then that’s what she’ll do. Finn hasn’t been in touch with Dylan for years but he couldn’t ignore the request to be his best man, so he’s back in Manhattan. But so are his parents, and there’s enough animosity, anger and underlying grief to power the entire city. The only family member Finn respects is his grandad, and Finn's determined to keep the peace for his sake. Kaisha’s first impressions of Finn are that he’s brash, unreliable and someone to avoid, but when he gets a job at the Inglenook Falls Christmas tree farm and they find themselves as roommates, will he surpass her expectations? Or, will he let everybody down at the last minute and prove Kaisha right?

Book Description
Perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan, Jessica Redland and Kate Forster. This boxset contains the first 3 books in the New York Ever After series: 1. Christmas at the Little Knitting Box 2. Snowflakes and Mistletoe at the Inglenook Inn 3. Wedding Bells on Madison Avenue ----- Christmas at the Little Knitting Box The Little Knitting Box has been in Cleo’s family for nearly four decades, and Cleo’s to manage for four years - ever since she arrived in New York, fresh off the plane from the Cotswolds. But instead of an early Christmas card in the mail this year, she gets a letter that tips her world on its axis. New York was supposed to be her second chance, do people get third chances? Dylan has had a tumultuous few years. His marriage broke down, his mother passed away and he’s been trying to pick up the pieces as a stay-at-home dad. All he wants this Christmas is to give his kids the home and stability they need. But when he meets Cleo, he begins to see it’s not always so easy to move on, especially when his ex seems determined to win him back. When the snow starts to fall, both Cleo and Dylan realise life is rarely black and white, and both have choices to make. Will Dylan follow his heart or his head? And will Cleo ever allow herself to be a part of another family when her own fell apart at the seams? Snowflakes and Mistletoe at the Inglenook Inn When Darcy returns to Manhattan, she’s put in charge of the Inglenook Inn, a cosy boutique hotel in the heart of Greenwich Village. The Inn needs a boost in bookings if it’s to survive, so Darcy is convinced that hosting Christmas this year is the answer. What she doesn’t expect is to meet a face from the past, which can only spell trouble. Myles left England behind and took a job in New York. It’s a step forwards in his career, and has the added bonus of being nowhere near his family. He’s also hoping to avoid Christmas, the worst time of the year. But when his company puts him up at the Inglenook Inn and he recognises Darcy, it isn’t long before they clash. As the flames on the log fire flicker and the snowflakes swirl above the New York streets, maybe this Christmas could be the one that changes everything... Wedding Bells on Madison Avenue When Myles and Darcy first met there were fireworks and ever since then it’s been a rollercoaster ride, sweeping them both off their feet. Myles is determined to do things differently from his own parents, but he’s hard wired to give his career on Wall Street his all. Is he capable of taking his foot off the pedal? Darcy has established herself as a fine hotelier, co-managing The Inglenook Inn in the heart of Greenwich Village. She strongly values her independence, but is it time she made room in her life for something else? Fierce ambition drew Myles and Darcy together, yet could it be the thing that drives them apart? In the meantime, close friends Cleo and Dylan are having their own troubles. Can either couple find their happy ever after despite busy lives, a crisis, and what looks like a wedding that’s never going to happen?

So This Is Ever After

Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1534496882
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
An instant New York Time bestseller! Carry On meets Arthurian legend in this subversive, “delightfully original and whimsical” (Kirkus Reviews) young adult fantasy about what happens after the chosen one wins the kingdom and has to get married to keep it…and to stay alive. Arek hadn’t thought much about what would happen after he completed the prophecy that said he was destined to save the Kingdom of Ere from its evil ruler. So now that he’s finally managed to (somewhat clumsily) behead the evil king (turns out magical swords yanked from bogs don’t come pre-sharpened), he and his rag-tag group of quest companions are at a bit of a loss for what to do next. As a temporary safeguard, Arek’s best friend and mage, Matt, convinces him to assume the throne until the true heir can be rescued from her tower. Except that she’s dead. Now Arek is stuck as king, a role that comes with a magical catch: choose a spouse by your eighteenth birthday, or wither away into nothing. With his eighteenth birthday only three months away, and only Matt in on the secret, Arek embarks on a desperate bid to find a spouse to save his life—starting with his quest companions. But his attempts at wooing his friends go painfully and hilariously wrong…until he discovers that love might have been in front of him all along.

Perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan, Jessica Redland and Kate Forster. Do you believe in Christmas miracles? Holly is looking for a change. There has to be more to life than the long hours she works as an editor in New York City, despite what everyone says.

Mitch spends his days hidden away in a little log cabin in Inglenook Falls, where he owns a Christmas tree farm.

Book Description
Perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan, Jessica Redland and Kate Forster. Do you believe in Christmas miracles? Holly is looking for a change. There has to be more to life than the long hours she works as an editor in New York City, despite what everyone says. What she doesn’t expect when she leaves the city behind is to meet Mitch, a recluse who’s hiding more than she realises. Mitch spends his days hidden away in a little log cabin in Inglenook Falls, where he owns a Christmas tree farm. He speaks to people only when necessary, so when Holly falls into his life, he’s not sure how to react. All he knows is that something needs to change if he wants to get his life back on track. Along with friends Cleo and Darcy, Holly is determined to bring joy back to Mitch’s life, but will he appreciate their interference? And when a business proposition throws everything up in the air, will it do more harm than good? Curl up this festive season in a snow-covered log cabin surrounded by Christmas trees and find out whether miracles and second chances really do happen. *Please note this is a re-release of Christmas Miracles at the Little Log Cabin, previously published by Helen J Rolfe* Praise for Helen Rolfe’s heartwarming stories: 'Beautiful, magical and incredibly moving’ The Writing Garnet ‘It's a book version of a Hallmark movie’ Amazon Reviewer ‘A warm romantic feel-good read’ Goodreads Reviewer ‘The perfect festive romance’ Jessica's Book Biz ‘What a wonderful festive read!’ Goodreads Reviewer
