Home for Christmas

So last Friday, Home for Christmas officially launched into the world!

This is a standalone novella that belongs in the Ava & Claire universe. I didn't want to write a WWII book, that's why there was a time jump between the end of Coming Together (1935) and French Lessons (1946).

But my people had other ideas. I knew a few things that happened because they came up in French Lessons - that Toby joined the Navy immediately after Pearl Harbor and that his younger brother George (his too younger brother) managed to join up, as well.

I didn't know how that happened, but Toby and George could be counted on throughout the earlier books to create a maximum amount of trouble, so I had total faith that they could do it again.

Home for Christmas was my most successful pre-order so far, which surprised me. I thought Paris would have had more fans, but apparently we (me included) can never get enough of sentimental-without-sappy holiday stories.

If you were one of my pre-orders - or if you decide to purchase now, on the basis of my ramblings - I hope you enjoy the story.
