Something’s in the air this holiday season, and it could be the beginning of a wonderful Christmas romance…

“Candy Canes and Cupid” by Fern Michaels

“White Hot Christmas” by Nancy Bush

Aspiring PI Jane Kelly likes to pretend she’s a bah-humbug kind of girl, but she’s had mistletoe on the brain ever since she shared a kiss with her boss, Dwayne. Before she can hope for a repeat performance, Jane must solve a kidnapping that’s as twisted as a candy cane—and not nearly as sweet.

“Seven Days of Christmas” by Rosanna Chiofalo

Five years ago, Bianca Simone received a wonderful early Christmas gift from her boyfriend, Mark—a week amid the stunning Alpine scenery of Innsbruck, Austria. Now she’s back under very different circumstances, but Mark has one more special gift in mind…

“A Smoky Mountain Gift” by Lin Stepp

Veda Trent is back in Townsend to fill in as temporary manager of the Crafts Co-op, but she’s not planning to stay. Though the mountain town is small, it holds lots of unsettling memories.

Upside Down: The Men of the Sisterhood #1 
Behind every member of the Sisterhood, there’s a man who knows better than to get in her way. Now the guys are bonding together, in the first in a thrilling new series from New York Times bestselling author Fern Michaels.

Through public triumphs and private sorrows, the men in the Sisters’ lives—husbands, friends, colleagues, and lovers—have offered invaluable aid and support. In the process, they’ve become an informal brotherhood of their own, able to relate to the unique challenges and rewards of life among the vigilantes. 

But after years of bit parts, the Sisterhood’s significant others are itching to take center stage. Frustrated with the limits of the criminal justice system, Nikki’s husband Jack Emery has recruited his friends Ted, Joe, Harry, Bert, Jay, and Abner. They have brand-new headquarters with state-of-the-art equipment, an unlimited bankroll, and a plaque on the door that reads BOLO Consultants. Their first case: toppling ruthless slum landlord Tyler Sandford—also lieutenant governor of Virginia. Sandford may have friends in very high places, but that’s no match for BOLO—or the women who’ve got their backs…

Dear Readers,

Have you read Fern Michaels' latest release, A Family Affair, yet? SpaWeekBlog.com has featured it in its book club recently, and several readers have written some wonderful reviews!

“A Family Affair begins by showcasing the life of a dancer who is drawn in by a wealthy foreign prince. Trish is drawn in by this prince, but as hard as it is to believe, going into a totally different world of wealth is not as easy as it sounds, and Trish had to make many adjustments. Being down to earth had its trials and tribulations when entering a kingdom of richness. This book kept me interested because Trish never gave up on the love of her family and much like some people often forget where they come from, Trish never did. Her family and friend relationships stayed true to herself. If you are looking for a book that is very hard to put down, grab this one!” – Samantha,  Southern Saving Sisters

“I always enjoy a great book that takes me to another place. A Family Affair starts off like a fairytale. A dancer (Trish) meets a prince (Malik Mohammed) on U.S. soil, and is sent for to travel across the world and be entertained in his home country of the United Arab Emirates. After being swept off her feet by the man of her dreams, Trish learns all is not what it seems. Trish is confused and won’t stand for being alone. She takes matters into her own hands. Will she regret it later or be at peace with her decision? You’ll have to read the book to find out if the fairytale beginning has a fairytale ending. Be prepared to smile, weep, and rejoice in this relaxing summer read by Fern Michaels.” - Tonia Sanders,  The Chatty Mama

Dear Readers,

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Fern Michaels comes a captivating and heartfelt new novel, as a young dancer finds an unexpected partner--and gains the courage to live according to her heart. . . In a city built on dreams, Trisha Holiday makes her living moving like one. But out of her dancer's costume, she's as down-to-earth as they come. That's why she ignores the admiring note--and the accompanying $1000 bill--that arrives backstage after one of her ethereal performances. Yet the sender, a wealthy foreign prince, isn't easily dissuaded. Seven years living and studying in the United States have made Malik long for the freedom to choose his own bride--and the woman he wants is Trisha.

After a breathtaking visit to Malik's kingdom culminates in a marriage proposal, Trish attempts to adjust to an opulent new lifestyle complete with servants, sumptuous surroundings, and vast wealth. None of that matters to Trish as much as Malik's love. With Malik's sister Soraya proving a trusted new friend, they plan a lavish wedding surpassing anything she could have imagined.

Yet Trish's new life will have challenges too--adjusting to a new and complex culture, to the myriad demands of Malik's royal position, and to the expectations she faces as his wife. In the midst of her own major changes, Trish vows to help her sister, Emma, whose marriage has ended in a bitter breakup. And through it all, Trish will strive to stay true to what matters most--love, true friendship, and the ties that hold family together across the miles and the years.
