Contemporary Christian Fiction discussion

One of the most beautiful books I've ever held in my hands is Log Cabin Christmas. It's an anthology of beautiful Christmas stories by a whole slew of best-selling authors, and it has already hit the NY Times best-seller list for this year.

I really want to read Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball. I've had it on my list for such a long time that as we get closer to Christmas, it makes it harder to wait!

Although I agree with Amanda, I'd like to nominate PAPER BAG CHRISTMAS by Kevin Milne.

ooOH! Let's read: Love Finds You in North Pole, Alaska
A delightful story that takes place in a town where it's Christmas all year long!

I read "Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball" this summer. It's cute. Whimsy and child like faith mixed with the reality of how most adults rush through Christmas, treating the holidays as a chore of obligation. A fun, fast read!

My favorite adult Christmas book is "Twas the Night" by Jerry B. Jenkins. I think both guys and gals will enjoy this one.

I haven't heard of that one - going to have to look it up! Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi Toni! I just found a copy on paperback swap and ordered it! I believe there are more :)

"Twas the Night" is probably available from your local library.
Tom is so bahhumbug yet has that heart of gold deep down. And Noelle is sweet but no push over.
Such a fun book with some romance and the magic of Christmas thrown in. I've worked for a newspaper so I loved that Tom is a newspaper columnist.

Haven't read that one. But if it's by Irene Hannon I know it will be awesome!

I know the group "Fans of Amish Fiction" are reading that book for December! Have not heard of it just thought you might be interested! :P

I loved A Door County Christmas by Rachael Phillips, Becky Melby, and Eileen Key. It is on sale right now at Christian Book Distributors for only $2.99.

My novel that releases in January has a Christmas theme, Southern Superstitions releases January 15. Meanwhile, I'm checking out Log Cabin Christmas. Thanks for the tip above. Oh, and Jerry B. Jenkins, too. Blessings, BJ Robinson

Last Resort by B. J. Robinson is contemporary Christian romantic suspense. Southern Superstitions by B. J. Robinson releases January 15. Have an ARC PD available for a reviewer. Any takers? Last Resort is available at Amazon by searching Last Resort B. J. Robinson. Five-star reviews.

PDF ARC copy, I meant :)

Jan Marie, thanks for the shout out about A Door County Christmas. I was the fourth author in that mix and we had such fun writing that book! We love it when readers say, "Oh, now I HAVE to go visit Door County!" Christmas books are so much more popular than we ever realized. It's a fun time to sit with a cup of cocoa, a quilt, and a great story.

Yep. Cynthia, you had me at the mention of cocoa...I'm all over that! It really does sound like a great book!

Cynthia, I'm so sorry that I left your name off of that list! The funny thing is, that I expressly remember typing your name and somehow must have backspaced it right out of existence. My humble apologies - I certainly didn't mean to neglect to mention your delightful contribution!

Woot Woot! and a Happy Thanksgiving to everyone as well! :)

I suggested this book in one of my other book groups. I was hoping that between the two...I'd get to read and discuss it. Yes!!!

Trish - where will we find the discussion? I haven't been in one in a while.
