So the romance section of my local library worked in my favour once again with this Love Inspired romance by Bonnie K. Winn. Jingle Bell Blessings is a wonderful inspirational romance all based around “A Little Boy’s Christmas Wish” as was written on the back of the book. Sweet Jimmy Evans is an orphan in need of a family all his own. Chloe Reed was the woman charged with helping him find one. Everyone has their reasons and history and Chloe and Jimmy’s distant relation Evan Mitchell are no different.

A broken family definitely in need of a sad and heartbroken young boy. Chloe is sure she can help Evan see the light. And Evan is equally sure there is no place in his busy life for a young child. This is a story of loss and heartbreak, redemption and love. All wrapped up with faith and peace.

Christmas is the perfect setting for this romance. Bonnie K. Winn shows how a man haunted by the past and weighted down by an uncertain future cannot only find peace but possibly love and a new start. If you are in need of something to read on a snowy evening this is a lovely cozy romance with a touch of mystery. I truly enjoyed this story. A lovely Christian contemporary romance.

A new take on the Regency story… a guardian angel/redemption sort. The incorrigible womanizing rake’s actions lead to his own death and the death of the man he was dueling and thus starts in motion a 100 year downward spiral to the two families involved. The Caines who owe the actions of one Valerian Caine to their credit (or discredit really) leaving 100 years later Robin (the current lord and sadly downtrodden young man) and Dorathea (the maiden) and the Sevarics, the Lord Max and his sister Gwendolyn.

 Written by Alicia Rasley and Lynn Kerstan, this is a more mature regency romance with a more frank dealing with the ideas of the rake and his urges. Not that the rather elegant Valerian (brought back to earth as Vayle) gave into his, but the temptation… the temptation is there. I think this story gives you a better idea than most as to how the men of the regency era often kept busy as well as a peek into life 100 years before. Definitely worth a read if you like some paranormal with your complicated romance! Come enjoy the poetic justice.
