This wonderful box set has something for everyone. There is a lot of Christmas magic and wishes contained in these pages. A Chocolate-Box Christmas Wish is a sweet short story. I really liked Cora and Patrick. Their sparking characters are well developed. Cora is a remarkable woman and Patrick is the new news anchor in a neighboring town. Their courtship is complicated and held my interest from the first page. This is a most enjoyable book. Dalia's Christmas Wish is a short story about a dedicated doctor, Tyler, who always puts the patient first. This causes a lot of havoc in his personal life. Dalia is the very cute daughter of one of Tyler's patients. Hours of reading pleasure await you in this heartwarming box set.

A variety of stories all dealing with Christmas. Something for everyone. Indulge, treat yourself and enjoy! I was fortunate to receive and arc, and as so we had 5 of the stories available to read and review. I have the same 5 as Phyllis Carpenter and it goes to show that everyone has different preferences. I enjoyed the *Christmas Miracle*, the mystery of it, the time line the small town and yes the romance. I like the fact that Sophie was a strong woman, dealing with the adversity and taking life by the reins. *Marrying Molly* is a story of a curse that has spanned generations and Mollys determination to break it, there is loss, love, family. *What Dottie Wants* is truly a relatable issue to parents when Christmas toys are advertised on tv. There is a twist here from earlier years and I loved seeing how they grew and I the hope that is shared. *Saving Maddie* is a romance with Finn in the Guardia. It brings to light the child trafficking, slavery. It is not dealt with over the top, so the light tummies should be able to read. Finn herself suffered a loss, and this is a story of hope, love and not giving up. The ending was a heart sigh. I settled into my chair to read *Toy Soldier Christmas* with a strong woman who has been dealt a lot in her life, and with a soldier, wounded coming home. Unfortunately for me the *magic* that transpires in this one just didn't do it for me. This book is a win for everyone, because even if there is a story that's not on the top of your charts your still getting a lot of bang for your buck, a lot of opportunity for romance and reading a different genre. Thank you for the arc! I freely volunteer my thoughts and opinions.
