3 Talented Women, 3 Christmas Romances Return to Christmases of yesteryear with three women who use their sewing talents to succeed in the late 1800s. But can love also be stitched into their lives?   A SEAMLESS LOVE by Judith Miller 1888 - Pullman, Illinois Hannah Cooper possesses a special talent for embroidered fancywork and design which secures her a position in the Dressmaking and Millinery Shop in the Pullman Arcade near Chicago. There she encounters childhood friend Daniel Price who is disappointed to learn Hannah is being courted by a Chicago businessman. With two men vying for her attention, will Hannah seek God's direction or ignore the warning signs He sets before her?   PIN'S PROMISE by Nancy Moser 1906 - Summerfield, England Penelope (Pin) Billings and Jonathan Evers have loved each other since they were children, promising to one day get officially engaged. Both have distinct talents: Pin for sewing dresses and teaching others to sew, and Jonathan--a doctor right out of school--for helping the people of the village. As they become adults and the time to fulfill their promise seems right, a tragic event pulls them apart, making both question their future. Will they discover they are stronger together than apart?   MENDED HEARTS by Stephanie Grace Whitson 1890 - Nebraska Rachel Ellsworth has always been encouraged to pursue her passion for art. She looks forward to taking the Grand Tour on her honeymoon and experiencing the great museums of Europe. But when tragedy strikes, Rachel's plans are put on hold and she is forced to stay with two maiden aunts in a small Nebraska town where the most exciting things that ever happen are quilting bees and the county fair. Rachel expects her stay in Lost Creek to be temporary--until a letter from home changes everything. How can a budding artist who loves the big city expect to find happiness in the middle of nowhere? … (plus d'informations)

An Historical Romance Collection
3 Stories Thread Hope and Love Through the Holidays
I try to commit myself to only reading Christmas themed books through the Christmas season this is a wonderful example of the true meaning of love during the season. I fully enjoyed each story. ( )

I just love when a Publisher comes out with a Historical Romance Collection. Especially when the authors are as talented as Judith McCoy Miller, Nancy Moser and Stephanie Grace Whitson. These Christmas stories are all different, but have similar threads. The heroines are all strong seamstresses trying to follow God's plan for their lives. The three stories cover Illinois, England and Nebraska. All taking place between the late 1800's until the turn of the century.
The first story, A Seamless Love, Hannah and David have been best friends from their youth. At Christmas, Hannah believes they are on the same page and are ready to take their relationship to the next level. She is finally able to get David alone and pulls out a sprig of mistletoe. I can't image how she must have felt when he rejected her. David said he doesn't want anything to get in the way of their wonderful friendship. So she moves forward and five years later, she has a boyfriend and David is jealous. Hannah is confused by David's mixed signals.

Pin's Promise by Nancy Moser the second book of the trilogy. Summerfield, England early 1900's This story is about Penelope (Pin) and her boyfriend Jonathan. He is getting ready to go off to school to become a doctor. She said she would wait for him, not necessarily patiently, but when he came home he would propose. Life is never simple, so when Jonathan comes home, he is scared and starts making excuses. Will he ever ask Pin to marry him?

Mended Hearts our third story by Stephanie Grace Whitson, takes place in Lost Creek,York County, Nebraska, in the late 1800's. Rachel's father has just passed away and she has no place to go. She believes her boyfriend is going to propose, but that doesn't happen. She unexpectedly receives a letter from her lost aunts. She thinks she is only going to be with them temporary, so off she heads to her Aunt's.
If you enjoy a sweet Christmas read, I would recommend this collection.
I received a copy of this book from Barbour Books through NetGalleys. The opinions expressed in this book are my own. ( )
