“A wonderful story of redemption and restoration that will warm your heart during the Christmas season—or any time of year!” —Francine Rivers, best-selling author of Redeeming Love Wrapped in a cloud of steam, the engine rolled to a stop, the screech of metal against metal filling the frosty air. Snow blew across the railway platform and around Meg’s calfskin walking boots. The weather definitely was not improving. She ordered tea with milk and sugar, eying the currant buns and sweet mincemeat tarts displayed beneath a bell jar. Later, perhaps, when her appetite returned. At the moment her stomach was twisted into a knot. “Anything else for you?” the cashier asked as she handed over the tea, steaming and fragrant. Meg was surprised to find her fingers trembling when she lifted the cup. “All I want is a safe journey home.” “On a day like this?” the round-faced woman exclaimed. “None but the Almighty can promise you that, lass.” “A Wreath of Snow glows with warmth, charm, and grace. A wonderful read.” —BJ HOFF, author of The Riverhaven Years series Christmas Eve 1894 All Margaret Campbell wants for Christmas is a safe journey home. When her plans for a festive holiday with her family in Stirling crumble beneath the weight of her brother’s bitterness, the young schoolteacher wants nothing more than to return to the students she loves and the town house she calls home. Then an unexpected detour places her in the path of Gordon Shaw, a handsome newspaperman from Glasgow, who struggles under a burden of remorse and shame. When the secret of their shared history is revealed, will it leave them tangled in a knot of regret? Or might their past hold the threads that will bind their future together? As warm as a woolen scarf on a cold winter’s eve, A Wreath of Snow is a tender story of love and forgiveness, wrapped in a celebration of all things Scottish, all things Victorian, and, especially, all things Christmas.

A Bodyguard Hero Passionate Enough to Risk It All for Love? The Secrets of the Past Lay Hidden in the Highlands: Jacob Ross is a U.S. Secret Service agent on a mission for truth: how was his police officer father killed in Scotland years ago while rescuing the kidnapped niece and nephew of John Sage, billionaire CEO of the Sage Family empire? Isabel Sage is the Sage Family heiress who needs a driver to escort her from New York City to her cousin’s wedding in Vermont. Though Isabel is smart, hardworking—and above all—loyal to her clan, she’s drawn to the gruff protector who’s been assigned to her, not knowing he’s been less than honest with his agenda. But love has a way of blossoming where it’s least expected. Now they each have a dilemma. Should Jacob tell Isabel what he’s really after? And for Isabel, is love enough to overcome family duty? “Oh my GOSH, I loved this book. Jacob and Isabel were both so well written and completely compelling. There is a level of intrigue here that feels like real life, as well as an evolving intimacy which was earned. By the time the sex happens, I totally believed they would have that effect upon each other - this wasn't physical for these two characters, it was a total experience.” —Kristen, Beverages and Books reviews “It ticks all the boxes for me. A contemporary Scotland romance, a hero protector, an ambitious heroine, continuity, and a plot that kept me guessing how they'll end up together. It was a page turner for me. I'm looking forward to the next in the series. I really liked the first in the series, The Sweetest Hours, but this one I really love.” —Christy, Goodreads reader Scotland for Christmas is book #2 in the Sage Family of Scotland series: Book #1: The Sweetest Hours Book #2: Scotland for Christmas Book #3: Secret Garden All books in the trilogy may be read as standalone romances.

In dark, wintry Lochdubh, Christmas Cheer is about as welcome as a flat tyre on a deserted road. The Calvinist element in town has always resisted what they view as secular frivolity, so for most of the townsfolk there'll be no carols, feasting, gifts - or even whisky on Christmas Day! And for PC Hamish Macbeth there's no holiday from crime - he finds himself hunting for a missing cat belonging to a lonely spinster. Curt and unfriendly, the woman is convinced her pet has been stolen but once behind her heavily-bolted door, Hamish can spot her true problem - she lives in fear, though of who or what he cannot guess. Then someone steals a Christmas tree and lights from the nearby village of Cnothan. So it is up to Hamish to sort all these problems out - and he had better do it quickly, for the church bells will soon peal on the eve of Christmas. This one-off standalone story is a special Christmas treat for all fans of Hamish Macbeth and can be read at any point in the ongoing series. Also features the first UK publication of a Hamish Macbeth short story, Knock, Knock, You're Dead! Praise for the Hamish Macbeth series: 'First rate ... deft social comedy and wonderfully realized atmosphere.' Booklist 'It's always a treat to return to Lochdubh.' New York Times 'Readers will enjoy the quirks and unique qualities of the cast ... Beaton catches the beauty of the area's natural geography and succinctly describes its distinct flavour.' Library Journal 'Befuddled, earnest and utterly endearing, Hamish makes his triumphs sweetly satisfying.' Publishers Weekly
