Jude Deveraux In the snow-covered hills of Virginia, a young widow finds that miracles really do come in the least expected packages, in "Just Curious," praised as "one of Deveraux's best" (Philadelphia Inquirer). "Change of Heart," set in modern-day Colorado, is the touching story of a clever twelve-year-old who plays matchmaker for his bighearted, impractical mother.
Judith McNaught This celebrated author magically portrays Regency London in "Miracles," the enchanting tale of a world-weary lord -- and an outrageous proposal. In "Double Exposure," a determined young woman arrives to photograph a magnificent wedding at a reclusive tycoon's Newport estate, and manages to unlock the secrets of a man's heart.

A very quick Christmas read. I bought it thinking it was 2 longer stories and not 4 very quick ones. But, that is my fault for not looking closer. It was a cute couple of stories from the masters of romance stories.

These authors are PROFESSIONALS???,

This review is from: Simple Gifts: Four Heartwarming Christmas Stories (Mass Market Paperback)
I love romance anthologies, and I know that Deveraux and McNaught are popular, well-known authors. I was very disappointed in the writing of these stories. The authors break or ignore all known writing rules that beginning writers are taught: in two of the stories, we don't meet either the hero or heroine for the first couple of pages. The first paragraphs of "Double Exposure" describe two women, Diana and Kristin, and yet NEITHER ONE is the heroine. Ditto for "Change of Heart." Also, none of the four stories were all that entertaining or uplifting, let alone wreathed in Christmas spirit. All in all, a disappointing 'effort' by otherwise well-known, successful authors.

I had waited and waited for so, so long for a story on Nicky and was really disappointed to find his story in this collection. Throughout most of her historical romance bestsellers, he was the champion for her heroines and deserve much better. I had expected him to have his own book. I am not sure why Ms. McNaught decided to cut his story short, but I am sure that I am speaking for all her fans out there, that she should consider publishing a full story on Nicky.
