Featuring some of the genre's most noted historical writers, this quartet of holiday novellas provides readers with delightful samplings of holiday cheer from the 16th-century Scottish Highlands, Regency England, and 19th-century America. For example, an old enemy honors a pledge, with romantic results, in Susan King's The Snow Rose; and a casual prayer at the casket of a stranger provides an impoverished governess with a fortune in Mary Jo Putney's The Best Husband Money Can Buy. Varying widely in style and tone, these well-crafted stories range from light and humorous to poignant and tender.
