What a delicious Christmas present Mr James has given us! Another fantastic Coffee Break Bundle but this one has an added bonus of drool worthy recipes. I'm definitely going to try the minty mistletoe!
This book has 3 different short stories, the whole book takes about an hour. Like the rest of the series this book stands on its own.
I love the title of the first story, The Pop Tarts, lol. It brings all sorts of potential themes to mind.
The Spanish Galleon is the second title and it has my favorite moniker, Ursula van de Schlompe! It's one you won't forget. The ending on this one is great.
Finally we have Celia Pulls it Off. I love this one because most of the dialogue is in her head! It was cool to see an author really get that running voice in our own heads every day. Ok, maybe that's just me, lol.
One of the fun things for me with this whole series is learning new words! I live in a different country from the author so I get a bonus education looking up some of the slang and common words to him.
