On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me … twelve sweet, short, swoony stories!

Twelve authors have interpreted a day of the Christmas carol, Twelve Days of Christmas, to bring you sweet holiday romance reads centred around a Christmas tree farm, “Pining for You”.

A snowstorm makes Miss Partridge crash into a pear tree, needing rescue from a burly tow truck driver. There are mistletoe kisses and missiles of mistletoe as witches chase thieving swans under a full moon at Yule while another witch performs a ritual with five golden rings.

Eleven pipers in kilts herald the lighting of the Christmas tree and a marriage celebrant and wedding photographer meet at another’s nuptials. An artisan has a very goosey meet-cute with a handsome Englishman, a goat farmer meets a beautiful woman rescuing kittens, and there’s an unexpected reunion with an ex which could lead to a second chance. An art historian has a chance encounter with an auctioneer, and it’s jingle bell rock when twelve drummers audition to join a band and one is up against her childhood crush.

Get ready to laugh-out-loud and cozy up with this sweet Christmas romance anthology full of heart, love and joy featuring award-winning and best-selling authors.
