The Merry Matchmaker Spice Level

A Little Christmas Spirit

"Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without a Sheila Roberts story . . . a heartwarming confection that's as sweet as a sugarplum, and as deeply moving as snowfall." --Susan Wiggs The best Christmas gifts--family, friendship and second chances--are all waiting to be unwrapped in this sparkling new novel from USA TODAY bestselling author Sheila Roberts. Single mom Lexie Bell hopes to make this first Christmas in their new home special for her six-year-old son, Brock. Festive lights and homemade fudge, check. Friendly neighbors? Uh, no. The reclusive widower next door is more grinchy than nice. But maybe he just needs a reminder of what matters most. At least sharing some holiday cheer with him will distract her from her own lack of romance... Stanley Mann lost his Christmas spirit when he lost his wife and he sees no point in looking for it. Until she shows up in his dreams and informs him it's time to ditch his scroogey attitude. Stanley digs in his heels, but she's determined to haunt him until he wakes up and rediscovers the joys of the season. He can start by being a little more neighborly to the single mom next door. In spite of his protests, he's soon making snowmen and decorating Christmas trees. How will it all end? Merrily, of course. A certain Christmas ghost is going to make sure of that!

Dirty Little Midlife Crisis

Hilarious, hot, and seriously refreshing. Dirty Little Midlife Crisis is the book you didn't know you needed. Forty-five, recently divorced, and a certified hot mess. The last thing Fiona needs to start her vacation is a flooded hotel room and a broken-down car... Alas, that's what she gets. She's ready to pack it all in and go home--wherever that is--when her knight in a wet T-shirt strides in to save the day. Jaw-dropping, panty-melting Grant Greene takes the "mess" out of "certified hot mess" when he walks up to Fiona and offers her a room to stay. No strings attached. Great, right? It would be, apart from the sparks that immediately start to fly. Sparks are bad. Sparks are dangerous. Sparks can cause a fire. And for a divorcee trying to start over, a fire is Really Bad News. But bad decisions can be fun...right? Just as long as you don't get burned... Intrepid heroine gets more than she bargained for. Hot hunk bares it all (literally). Skinny dipping. Shirtlessness. Meddling townsfolk. Vicious feuds. Hilarious banter. Twists, turns, and shocking developments. And heat, so much heat. More steam than a sauna. Well-earned HEA guaranteed.
