Cowboys & Mistletoe – Cheryl Pierson

by

(POST  2 of 3  for Monday)

Hi, everyone! So glad you are here with us for DAY ONE of our COWBOYS & MISTLETOE celebration for this year! This is one of my favorite times here at Petticoats & Pistols, and it runs for several days, with chances for prizes from each of us PLUS a grand prize at the end of the event, so be sure to come back every day!

The Christmas book I want to talk about today is an “oldie but a goodie”–it’s a collection of my Christmas novellas called A HERO FOR CHRISTMAS. This collection contains 4 shorter stories, all set in the past, and is very special to me because A NIGHT FOR MIRACLES was one of the first short stories I ever wrote when I was publishing with The Wild Rose Press many years ago. It was a hit, and let me know that I was capable of writing a shorter piece, and that not everything had to be a novel! (That was a relief!) LOL 

Here’s the blurb for A HERO FOR CHRISTMAS:

Western Short Collection
A four-story Western collection from award winning author, Cheryl Pierson

A Night for Miracles
Widow Angela Bentley takes in three children and a wounded gunman one snowy Christmas Eve. Angela determines to keep her distance—until the children drag in a scraggly Christmas tree. Will she find love on this, A NIGHT FOR MIRACLES?

Homecoming
A holiday skirmish sends Union officer, Jack Durham, on an unlikely mission for a dying Confederate enemy. Will a miracle be able to heal his heart and reunite him with his beloved?

Meant to Be
Robin Mallory is shocked when she is tackled by a man in a Confederate uniform. A flat tire and a coming snowstorm have stranded her in the middle of a re-enactment – or is it?

The Gunfighter’s Girl
Persuaded by a vendor, Miguel Rivera ~ El Diablo ~ makes a foolish purchase—scarlet ribbons. Will they, and a mysterious meeting, set him on a new path? Can he find his way back to the love he left years before?

  5. I will go with number 2 as the lie.
    This is so much fun, but makes me nervous. I keep going back and forth until I finally stop and take a chance. I always come up with wonderful truths and no lie…?

    • Oh, no Becki! Don’t be nervous. This is just for fun and some of these things are amazing on all the Fillies’ posts that are yet to come, too! It’s hard to tell what’s real and what’s not!

    • Thanks, Alma! BTW, I don’t know if I ever mentioned this to you or not, but my grandmother’s name was Mary Alma Johnson. I found out years later that “Alma” means “soul” in Spanish. A beautiful name!

    • Hi Patricia! It’s good to see you here. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We are now looking forward to Christmas–the tree will go up tomorrow, if I can find the stamina for it all. LOL Thanks for playing!

    • Hi, Kerah, and thanks for stopping in to play our game of Two Truths and a Lie! We’re having the best time with this! Looking forward to the rest of the posts that are coming up!
