...'Tis The Season
Proud but poor, Boston socialite Amelia Lawrence has no choice but to become a mail-order bride for a charming Illinois gentleman she's never seen. But when Amelia arrives, she finds that his "Grand Estate" is nothing more than a dilapidated boarding house with a host of oddball tenants--and her much older husband dies on their wedding night! If only she had the money to return to her rich relations...To keep her from selling their only home, the boarders know they'll have to find her another husband as fast as possible. And handsome Michael Thompson lives right down the hall...

...To Fall In Love
An undercover US Marshal, Michael Thompson is on the trail of a killer--he can't reveal his true identity to the pretty young widow. But now that winter is setting in, they'll have to keep the old place going somehow. The eccentric boarders at the Grand Estate are more hindrance than help, though they're doing everything they can to throw Michael and Amelia together. Add a little Christmas magic, and just one kiss can go a very long way...
