Lighting Up Christmas: Four Faith-Filled Christmas Romance Novellas by Amy R. Anguish, Heather Greer, Mary Pat Johns, Regina Rudd Merrick

 

Four Christmas lights. Four love stories. One season filled with faith, hope, and happily-ever-afters.

In Lighting Up Christmas, four heartwarming holiday romance novellas shine with cozy charm, clean romance, small-town warmth, and the gentle reminder that God can bring light to even the dimmest season.

In The Bright Side of Christmas by Amy R. Anguish, Holly Belle loves Christmas, holiday décor, and twinkling lights. Her new neighbor, Robert Bradshaw, prefers peace, quiet, and keeping her Christmas cheer firmly on her side of the duplex. But when Holly decides his grinchy heart needs a little holiday help, their battle over lights may lead to something brighter than either one expected.

In The Light of a Christmas Star by Heather Greer, Elena Bell is determined to make Tannenbaum’s Festival of Lights a success for the families depending on it. When rising Hollywood star Trenton Wills arrives at her B&B, he may be the answer to the town’s needs—and the beginning of Elena’s own Christmas romance. But Trenton has secrets that could dim more than the festival lights.

In ’Twas the Light Before Christmas by Mary Pat Johns, Cooper Blackmon enters the region’s biggest Christmas lights competition determined to win. Mandy Alvarez needs the prize money to save her family’s beloved Christmas Village. As rivalry turns to friendship and friendship glows into something more, only one can claim the prize. But both may have far more to lose than money.

In Pitch Perfect Lights by Regina Rudd Merrick, Holly Shepherd is facing her family’s first Christmas after loss while trying to create joy for her young siblings. When author Paxton Hollis returns home and quietly helps revive her father’s beloved light display, Holly discovers that hope can still shine, even through grief.

A charming choice for readers who enjoy clean, faith-friendly romance wrapped in Christmas lights, small-town warmth, and happily-ever-after hope.

Read Lighting Up Christmas and discover four faith-filled holiday love stories that glow with joy, hope, and the true light of Christmas.

About The Authors


 Amy R Anguish grew up a preacher's kid, and in spite of having lived in seven different states that are all south of the Mason Dixon line, she is not a football fan. Currently, she resides in Tennessee with her husband, daughter, and son, and usually a bossy cat or two. Amy has an English degree from Freed-Hardeman University that she intends to use to glorify God, and she wants her stories to show that while Christians face real struggles, it can still work out for good.

 


 Living faith, one story at a time.

My stories feature characters readers will love with stories that encourage living out faith every day, even when life gets messy.

Growing up as a reader of Christian fiction, these are the types of stories that captured my imagination and grew my faith. These are the stories I still want to read. I love opening a story for entertainment and leaving it inspired in some way.

While my stories are fiction, each one contains a little bit of me on the pages. It might be found in the setting, a hobby the character enjoys, or a struggle I've faced in my own life.

My Review


 Each story features beautiful Christmas Lights, and some sweet romance.
A different setting by four authors, but full of the Christmas spirit!
The first is a story about putting decorations and lights on your neighbor's property, what could go wrong here. Such a fun story! Then we host a rising Hollywood star, and he helps raise money, surprise! In the third story, there is a Christmas lights competition, who will win, with unexpected romance. The final has a family with a lot of grief, but the love and Christmas spirit come through here!
Four feel good reads with some sweet romance, that quickly become page turners, you can read one, or more in one sitting.
I received this book through the Author, and was not required to give a positive review.
