Variations on a Theme: Thanksgiving Reads

Apparently I like Thanksgiving. I was putting together a newsletter for today and wanted to feature a book that has a Thanksgiving scene in it and I realized exactly how many books I have that qualify. Like a lot of them! So I decided to round them all up here in one post in case, like me, you enjoy matching your reading to the season. FYI, in case you missed it, the book and scene I finally decided to feature in the NEWSLETTER today is from Cowboy Blue. KISSING BOOKS After a few blissful weeks in Mudville housesitting her Aunt Agnes’s home and animals, the heroine, Harper, is back home in the suburbs of NYC trying not to miss the new friends and family–and the guy–she left behind in the tiny upstate town.

Can she make it to Mudville before the pumpkin pie is served to the guests in Aunt Agnes’s grand Victorian dining room? And will Stone be there when Harper arrives?

You had me at bourbon: the cranberry recipe from That Mistletoe Moment

The story behind the story of the cranberry recipe… If you read my novella, “A Boyfriend by Christmas” in the multi-author holiday anthology THAT MISTLETOE MOMENT from Kensington, which released in September of this year, you might remember the opening scene. The heroine, Noelle, was in the middle of cooking her famous cranberry sauce to bring to her boyfriend’s parents’ house for dinner when disaster strikes. She is forced to run out to the food store for more ingredients, which is where she meets the hero, Nathan. They exchange recipes, which leads to so much more… Noelle’s recipe is really my real life friend Donna’s recipe. She makes it every year and trust me it is INCREDIBLE! It is our pleasure to bring you the actual recipe, just in time for your holiday cooking. The recipe is in the photo of this post, and also on the RECIPE page, as well as pasted below. And, in case you missed the cranberry scene in my story, it follows the recipe for your reading pleasure. Enjoy!
