Christmas. It's full of joy, happiness, and shopping. It's known as the greatest time of the year, right? 

Not for her. 

Julie Molina has made it her life's work to have nothing to do with the treacherous holiday. No lights, no tree, no gifts, none of that for her. The holiday season just leaves her in a downright mood.

Luke Patterson, the bubbly brunette, on the other hand, is the complete opposite. His house has won 'Christmas Decorations of the Year' for 10 straight years. He's all about the trees, lights, and gifts. 

Paired together for an English project, these two seem like a recipe for disaster. One thing leads to another and Luke knows Julie's secret - the reason why she hates the holidays. Watch as they change each other, for better or worse.

The Firefighter's Promise by KateJamesBooks
1 part Complete
When Jacqueline (Jax) Warren is in a serious motorcycle accident, firefighter Ryan Hudson is the first to arrive at the scene. Ryan takes a special interest in Jax, particularly when he discovers that her stepmother shows little interest in her. But Jax learned early in life that she can't rely on other people, and her six-year-old half-brother is the only person she cares about. Ryan convinces her to celebrate Thanksgiving with him and his family, to show her that not all families are like the one she's known. When he presents her with an unexpected gift, she finally lets him into her life and her heart. * * * Note to Readers: Thank you to everyone who read THE FIREFIGHTER'S PROMISE, and special thanks to those of you who took the time to let me know how you enjoyed it. THE FIREFIGHTER'S PROMISE was written for Harlequin Heartwarming for a special Thanksgiving free online read promotion in 2015 and I am pleased to have been able to have it on Wattpad for the past months. Although it is no longer available online, Harlequin plans to release THE FIREFIGHTER'S PROMISE as part of a collection of short stories in time for US Thanksgiving 2016. Please watch for it at all major online retailers. In addition to what I have posted on Wattpad, you can find my novels at most online retailers, included Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Kate-James/e/B00Q4YAOY8/ref=dp_byline_cont_pop_ebooks_1) and Harlequin.

Small Town Gossip

31 parts Complete

Addy Harper-Dewitt is stuck. She has no job, no prospects, and is perpetually in trouble. Everyone in town likes to gossip about Addy because no matter what she does, she's always smack-dab in the middle of some local controversy. She's long given up on improving her reputation and wants to focus on moving out of her mama's trailer to start her own life. But she can't do that without money. Skylar Clarke seems to have it all: a promising career, good looks, and any girl he wants. On the outside, his life appears perfect. But in reality, Skylar hates where his life is headed and is struggling to keep his beloved brother, Danny, out of trouble. The weekend of their younger sister's wedding, their political father has invited a reporter to do a puff piece on the family to help his campaign for state legislature. In the wake of Danny's addiction problems, the eldest Clarke has promised that if the weekend goes well, then he will grant his sons' their freedom. Danny can get real help in battling his demons, and Skylar will be allowed to choose his own path. So when Skylar witnesses the positive impact Addy has on his brother, he comes up with a plan to help both their lives. All she has to do is pretend to be Danny's girlfriend for the weekend and help his family avoid scandal, and then Skylar's family will pay for anything that Addy wants. With a perfect plan like this, what could go wrong?
