CHRISTMAS REVELS is a true delight for all of Mary Jo Putney's fans.  It contains five holiday novellas, one new contemporary one and four of her all-time favorite historicals.

The new contemporary, “A Holiday Fling”, features two characters from her successful contemporary novel THE SPIRAL PATH, Greg Marino and Jenny Lyme.  This story is short but funny and sweet, a poignant tale of finding the true person beneath the exterior.  Both Greg and Jenny are well-known professionals in the movie-making business.  They had a brief fling years ago, and have an opportunity to have another.  However, it turns out that neither wants merely a fling this time.  The challenge comes about in how they change the rules mid-stream and whether they each get over their own insecurities to make a two-continent, two-career marriage really work.

I'm sure you'll enjoy this delightful holiday story as much as the wonderful regency-era holiday stories that follow it.  Enjoy CHRISTMAS REVELS and have a very happy holiday season.
