GUEST POST: Alexa Verde
At the end of January, do you still have Christmas in your heart?
I love writing and reading books about Christmas for many reasons. The knowledge about the Savior born, the reminder about grace, the feeling of joy about the good news of the Lord…
I love seeing Christmas lights, exchanging gifts, celebrating with my friends. But in January, the lights are taken down (except when people leave them on for the entire year) and the stores switch decorations to hearts and roses.
Personally, I think it’s never too late or too early to read or write about Christmas! I released Book 2 in Rios Azules Christmas series in March, and Book 3 in August. If you still feel like reading a Christmas book, be it a heartwarming, sweet romance or a fast-paced, action-packed suspense, here are some eBooks I’m offering for the giveaway.
The Mystery of Christmas 2 is only $0.99 or free on Kindle Unlimited. Seven new Christian mystery/suspense novellas! In every book of the set, mysteries are unveiled, suspense abounds, and danger is around every corner.
Season of Joy will be on sale for $0.99 January 29th – February 2nd!
Single dad Dylan McGregor wants to give his two sons the best life possible in the small town where he’d grown up. When his youngest son writes a letter to God asking for a Mom for Christmas, Dylan reluctantly starts dating again. His lifelong friend, Joy Avila, agrees to help him find the right woman. Then Dylan begins to see Joy in a new light and believes she’s the right woman for him and his family.
Overweight and teased in school, Joy never hoped her first crush, Dylan McGregor, would return her feelings. Confident and successful now, she’s found her passion in writing about international travels. The trip of a lifetime awaits her after the holidays. Instead, will she find her dreams right there in Rios Azules?
Love’s Christmas Cheer is only $1.99 or free on Kindle Unlimited.
For feuding chefs at a new restaurant, a ruined wedding reception and a failed business are not on the menu. But love and family just might be…
Chefs Petr Sergeyev and Lacy-Jane Macalister can’t agree on anything except for that they can’t agree on anything.
Lacy-Jane Macalister returns to her hometown, eager to prove she’s not the culinary failure her ex claimed her to be. After a career in the military, Petr Sergeyev settles down in Sweet Grove to help his brother with his nephew and new business. Grandpa Alexey’s is the only place in town that needs chefs.
He’s for hearty meals. She promotes healthy food. He likes order. She prefers creativity. He left his girlfriend. She was betrayed by her fiancé. Their arguments are more heated than the stove in the restaurant’s kitchen. But when Lacy-Jane’s sister and Petr’s brother decide to have their wedding three days after Christmas, Petr and Lacy-Jane put their differences aside to give their siblings a great reception.
Will Petr and Lacy-Jane surrender their wills to God and receive Christmas gifts of love, faith, and hope?

Thank you for sharing this guest post and giveaway, Alexa! I love Christmas stories and enjoy reading them throughout the year!
Heartfelt thanks, Britney!
Christmas books are a pleasure to read anytime. I always feel good when I read a Christmas story.
Hello, Melanie Backus! So glad to hear it, and that’s exactly the way I feel about Christmas stories, too. Thank you so much for commenting!
I prefer to read them in the middle of a Texas heatwave.
I can totally relate! I love Texas, but it’s so hot here in summer and often in spring and fall, too. Reading Christmas books in July sounds awesome to me. Thank you so much for stopping by!
Christmas stories are great during Christmas time…but coming for someone that likes to listen to Christmas music anytime…I read these stories throughout the year!
Hello Kimberly Paulus! I’m so glad you think this way! And yes, it’s wonderful to listen to Christmas music any time of the year. Thank you very much for commenting.

Anytime, but there’s something peaceful about curling up to a good Christmas story after the decorations have been put away and January’s calm settles in. The spirit lingers and rolls right into February…. Thank you for the contest opportunity. I’m looking forward to reading your work either way.
ZT Williams, I loved the way you put it. And huge thanks for your interest in my books!
