So I've been busy this fall writing a few holiday contemporaries and now my one historical Christmas book as finally released. But the best part if, it's part of a multi-author series of USA Today and New York Times bestselling authors. These fun little novellas were a lot of fun for all of us to write. What's even more fun, is we used Christmas Carols for our inspiration. The Series is called Christmas Stocking Sweet Hearts and there are nine books in the series.
What's my book you ask? A Child for Christmas! Here's a little more about the book:
A woman on the run.
A man that doesn't want to be found.
And the child that brings them together...
Widow Abbey Harper has a choice to make. Either give up her baby girl to her deceased husband's wealthy father and stay out of her life, or make a run for it. She chooses to run, and she does it as a mail-order bride! Anything's better than giving up her precious child. But will she be going from the frying pan into the fire?
Wanting to forget his gunslinger past, Wyatt Reeves escapes to Apple Blossom, Montana where he hopes to make a fresh start. And boy, does he get one! The town preacher takes it upon himself to order him a mail-order bride, and she came with a baby! But what woman (let alone one with a baby) would want to saddle herself with the likes of him? Yet the more time he spends with the woman and her child, makes him wonder if he could be more than protection from the threat hunting them. Will two lonely hearts trying to protect a precious little find each other? Find out in this heartwarming western romance!

What was the funnest thing about writing this book? Setting it in my town of Apple Blossom! I have a series of nine books set in my little town located in the Montana Territory. But for A Child for Christmas, it's ten years later! The couples that got married in 1879 now have children, and of course the children in my Love in Apple Blossom Series are now ten years older, a lot of them teenagers or young men and women. I couldn't showcase a lot of characters from my Love in Apple Blossom series, but it was still great fun to write!
I have series that cover up to three generations of characters! That's a lot of people, and I have to keep track of their age in different series, birthdays, and what not. It can be a chore when you've developed entire towns that readers want more and more of.
This is the first time I've written a Christmas story in a series based on different Christmas Carols. Check out my book, then check out some of the other great books in the series. You'll be glad you did!
Until Next Time,
Kit
