Three novellas.Vacation by Jane Green
If Sarah knew moving to the suburbs would mean losing everything about her relationship that was young, romantic, and fun, she would have planted her feet firmly in the city cement. Reigniting the spark she and her husband, Eddie, once had isn't easy, especially with two kids added to the mix. And when Eddie's job sends him to Chicago indefinitely, Sarah wonders if she might be better off alone. A lot can happen during a long break from marriage. But as Christmas approaches, will Sarah recognise the gift she's been taking for granted? The Second Wife of Reilly by Jennifer Coburn
Falling in love with Reilly was easy for Sarah, but marriage is proving to be a little more worrisome - especially with Prudence, Reilly's ex, still single. Since it's the season of giving, Sarah decides to find Prudence a man of her own. But shopping for another woman's prospective husband isn't quite as easy as whipping out a credit card at Bloomie's... Mistletoe and Holly by Liz Ireland
For once, Holly is determined to fit into her family's picturesque Norman Rockwell Christmas. Even with her wry best friend Isaac along for the ride, she's got perfect boyfriend Jason to introduce and matching snowman sweaters all picked out. Unfortunately, the holiday spirit is on the fritz and no one is interested in perfection, including Holly. Because she's beginning to realise that Isaac looks pretty darn good under the mistletoe...
