The Shepherd’s Heart by Tracie Peterson

No Room at the Inn by Misty M. Beller

A Star in the West by Karen Witemeyer
Friendly correspondence with Stella Barrington evolves into something more when Harvard mathematics professor Frank Stentz arrives in Waco, Texas. As the two experiment with extending their relationship beyond letters, an impossible dilemma arises between love and logic. Will her wise man be able to calculate a way for them to be together?

 

Rediscover the joy of Christmas with these faith-based historical romances from bestselling authors featuring sweet Western frontier stories with themes of marriage of convenience, forced proximity, and friends-to-more.

DEVOTED TO HOPE'S REVIEW OF ON A MIDNIGHT CLEAR

Three novellas. Three voices. One Savior whose birth still changes everything.

 

Each story carried the warmth of Christmas and the wonder of the Nativity, like candlelight in the dark, steady and glowing with hope and promise. The words spoke of living differently because of Jesus: “When we live a life for Jesus, people notice that we’re different. When we are forgiving and kind when others deserve our anger, the light shines.” That truth belongs at the heart of every season, but it feels especially bright at Christmas!

 

There’s also the steady witness of faith that endures: “My faith has seen me through many difficult times.”
A simple confession, yet strong enough to carry the weight of a lifetime.

 

And the reminder that lifts the whole collection: “Her heart overflowed with gratitude for the gift of Jesus, for the love and truth He bestowed during His life, for the grace and salvation He offered in His death, and the triumph and hope manifested at His resurrection. This was the good news of Christmas.”

 

Romantic and tender, yet always pointing back to Christ, these novellas invite us to slow down, remember, and rejoice in the true miracle of Christmas.

 

Perfect for readers who love historical romance, stories that stir the heart, and Christmas tales that clearly celebrate the Savior’s birth.
