Publisher Description
Katherine O'Connor often spends her days at a cozy cafe on Blossom Street in Seattle, where she writes Christmas letters for other people. She's good at making their everyday lives sound more interesting. More humorous. More dramatic.
But for Dr. Wynn Jeffries, who also frequents the cafe, Christmas means lies and deception. In fact, the renowned child psychologist recommends that parents "Bury Santa Under the Sleigh." Katherine, however, feels that his parenting philosophy is one big mistake—at least, based on her four-year-old twin nieces, who are being raised according to his "Free Child" methods.
She argues with Wynn about his theories, while he argues that her letters are nothing but lies. They disagree about practically everything—and yet, somehow, they don't really want to stop arguing.
As the days—and nights—move closer to Christmas, Katherine and Wynn both discover that love means accepting your differences. And Christmas is about the things you share.

"For a romance it was pretty good. I'm not a fan of romance because there is usually too much deep sighs and even deeper kisses etc!!! Though I knew the outcome from page 2 or before it still was an cute story with the things I find objectional in a story. A feel good Christmas story."
— Carol (4 out of 5 stars)

" I think this book will become one of my favorite Christmas stories. Katherine is so likeable, and when she meets the author of one of the worst books ever written about child rearing, sparks fly and she is smitten. Another Debbie Macomber lol reads. "

— Carla, 3/14/2012 -
" This one was just ok. There was a great plot idea in there but honestly it felt off for me. The leads weren't really people who I could actually picture and some of the stuff going on was lacking. Overall this was an ave. read. "

" Very predictable. Total beach read. I need more substance! "
— Angela, 1/18/2011 -
" Through the format of Christmas letters, you learn the story of family, covering 2-3 generations. The last real letter, telling you all the stuff that never really makes it into these annual brag letters is sad and refreshing. "
