Description
What grown woman claims to have seen Santa Claus? Mandy Reese, for one—on a very special Christmas Eve when she was eight years old. These days, Mandy works at a year-round Christmas store in Tall Pine, California, where customers love to hear about her childhood encounter with Saint Nick. But when Jake Wyndham arrives in town—charming, gorgeous, extremely practical—Mandy faces a dilemma. Deny what she saw, or let Jake think she’s sugarplum crazy?
Jake scouts hotel locations all over the country, but he’s never met anyone quite like Mandy before. Her warmth and sparkle are irresistible, but…meeting Santa? Really? Jake’s no Scrooge but he’s definitely skeptical. Then again, there are all kinds of things Jake never experienced until he came to Tall Pine. Like autumn snow. Mind blowing kisses. And the magic of falling head-over-heels, madly in love…
A Note From the Publisher
Sierra Donovan recently won the Golden Quill Award for her 2014 novel NO CHRISTMAS LIKE THE PRESENT!
Advance Praise
“An updated take on “Yes Virginia, There I a Santa Claus,” this story is like the perfect cup of hot chocolate: sweet, warm and nostalgia-inducing. There isn’t much conflict here – just two likable people falling in love…with one unusual twist: Mandy believes in Santa Claus. Mandy is like a shy best friend who needs just a little nudge, and readers will find themselves cheering her on. Jake is proof that nice guys don’t have to finish last.” - RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars
“The dual arcs blend well together and the Christmas theme is central to the conflict…This chaste love story will appeal to traditionalists.” – Publishers Weekly
Praise for NO CHRISTMAS LIKE THE PRESENT:
“There are always a few Christmas-themed books to choose from this time of year, but No Christmas Like the Present is a stand-out story. The familiar overwhelming feeling of not enough Christmas spirit and too many obligations is brought to the fore in charming manner. A gentle reminder to spread the holiday joy is alive and well, and bring a little romance with it.” – RT Book Review, 4 Stars
“Donovan packs this contemporary romance full of all kinds of Christmas magic: friendship, goodwill to colleagues, family and forgiveness.” – Publishers Weekly

This was absolutely charming, a story that touches the child in each of us.. The characters were real, and they were good at heart people, ones you want to know and have in your life. I want to know so much more, so I'm grateful this is the first in a series.
