4****
Bygone Christmas Brides is a feel-good collection of enjoyable and touching Christmas stories. I'm glad I had the opportunity to read them.
Lost and Found by Ginny Aiken
3***
This was an interesting and enjoyable story set in Wales in 1870--mostly in a mining town. My favorite character is Trefor, who is a true hero and has strong faith in God. I love the spiritual theme of trusting God in all circumstances and in every situation.
âTis the Season by Carla Gade
3.5 stars
I enjoyed this story set in the quaint area called Schooley's Mount, New Jersey in 1820. I especially like the main character, Annaliese. I love the pure joy that radiates from her voice and actions.
I Saw Three Ships by Pamela Griffin
5*****
Pamela Griffin is a new author to me, and I'm glad I found her, as I love this story set in Scotland in the mid1800's. I've always enjoyed this setting, and this story was no exception. I really like the characters, especially Rachel. As most of us, she struggles with forgiveness, but God sends a special message to help strengthen her faith.
Colleen of Erin by Tamela Hancock Murray
4****
This story of old-fashioned romance was quite different from romance of contemporary times. Colleen is precious and lovely both inside and out. I love that she also has a mind of her own. Finn, on the other hand, needs some lessons in compassion, mercy and forgiveness. This is an interesting and original story.
A Right Proper Christmas by Jill Stengl
5*****
This charming story is about how God works out His plans in the lives of His children. This satisfying story will leave you with a smile on your face and perhaps a tear in your eye.
Mercy Mild by Gina Welborn

I had read this story once before in a different collection. I rarely have time to re-read, but I remembered this was a wonderful story, so I did read it again. I'm so glad I took the time to do so. It is definitely one of those heart-warming stories worth a second read!
