The Christmas Heirloom: Four Holiday Novellas of Love
Through the Generations
Four Christmas novellas by
four different authors, all connected as the stories are all about a broach
that brings the wearers true love. The
stories are all in different era’s yet still connected by the broach that has
been passed from Mother to Daughter for almost two hundred years. I loved all of the stories, each so different
yet connected. The stories were rich in
content and well written characters, the stories linked together and so
heartwarming! Each a holiday story with
a feel-good ending!! I give this book 5
stars. I truly enjoyed the stories.
I received this book through
NetGalley.com for promotional purposes.
I’ve decided to write this review of my own volition as I loved the book…..#NetGalley

Description as found on NetGalley.com:
Perfect for the Christmas
season, four beloved authors bring their bestselling, award-winning talents to
a multigenerational collection of romantic holiday novellas. In stories ranging
from 1820s Regency England to present-day Washington state, readers will be
treated to Christmas tales of an heirloom brooch passed from mother to daughter
for almost two hundred years. Will the family legend claiming the brooch brings
love to its recipient hold true for these women separated by the years but
bonded together by the ties of family?
in Kristi Ann Hunter's "Legacy of Love," Sarah Gooding never suspected returning a brooch to an elderly woman would lead to a job . . . and introduce her to the woman's grandson. While he may be far above her station, she can't help but notice that his desire to make this Christmas special for his grandmother matches her own.
in Karen Witemeyer's "Gift of the Heart," widow Ruth Albright uses the family brooch as collateral for a loan from the local banker. But the more she comes to know the man behind the stern businessman, the more she hopes for a second chance at love as the holidays draw near.
in Sarah Loudin Thomas's "A Shot at Love," Fleeta Brady's rough-and-tumble childhood means she prefers hunting to more feminine activities. She never expected her mother's brooch might be how a fellow hunter turns her attention from competition to romance one December.
in Becky Wade's "Because of You," Maddie Winslow has spent years in love with a man whose heart was already spoken for. When a church Christmas project brings them together and she stumbles upon an old family brooch, might it finally be her turn for love? (less)
