Christmas in the Desert

It always seems like Christmas when a new book releases,


but even more so with this one since it's a Christmas Collection.


[image error]


I'm sure I'm prejudice, but I love the cover and can imagine the red bow


peeping out of a gift bag.



It's one of Barbour's popular annual Christmas Anthologies.


It has nine stories by well-known authors.
