This is a delightful collection of three Christmas stories. They were each completely captivating from start to finish. This is one I'll return to each year! Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the advanced copy of the book.

This is 3 Christmas related short stories. All three are delighful in their own way and they are all very different. This is not your run of the mill Christmas short story collection. The first story is about a former mean girl who goes home and has to face all the folks that she wronged when she was younger. The second story is about a trip on a real Christmas Express. The third is about a hometown girl who is happy in the big city but comes back and revisits a relationship with a hometown boy who is happy in the hometown and how they resolve the conflict to live happily ever after.

You won't go wrong with this collection of Christmas stories. Enjoy!

I have voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book that I received from NetGalley. All views expressed are only my own honest opinion.

I received an ARC of, On the Way to Christmas by, Sheila Roberts, Melissa Ferguson, and Amy Clipston. This is a nice collection of 3 Christmas stories. All different, but all of them good.

I wanted something light to read this week because I had some procedures coming up and I didn't want to get caught up in something deep or heavy. This seemed to fit the bill--at least on the surface.

A Christmas Do-Over chronicles the reformation of a "Mean-Girl" and the pathway back to the good graces of those she's hurt along the way is long and humbling.

Dashing Through the Snow made absolutely no sense to me. Willow's boyfriend dumps her right before the wedding, but insists she take the honeymoon trip anyway, a two week train trip with various stops and excursions along the way. So far, so good. She develops a friendship with Clarence, the elderly owner of the train, and his son, Oliver. Her friendship with Oliver grows into something more, but this is where it makes no sense. At one point he says that the train was purchased when he was a child in 1953. This makes Oliver at least forty years older than Willow. I won't say love can't happen to two people with such a time span between them, but it is unlikely.

The best one of the novellas is A Perfectly Splendid Christmas by Amy Clipston. Amy is most well known for her Amish fiction, but she is coming into her own as a modern Christian romance writer. Kacey and Drew reconnect years after high school when Kacey comes back to Splendid Lake to help her sister out when her husband lost his job. Their relationship begins again as an easy flowing friendship that grows and develops into something more.

This is a four star book only because Amy Clipston's offering brings the average up.

Thomas Nelson provided the copy I read for this review. All opinions expressed are solely my own.

On the Way to Christmas, three novellas set between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

A Christmas Do-Over by Sheila Roberts brings Darby back to her home town. She has resisted going back because she was once the mean bad girl and didn't want to face eating humble pie. Her greatest regret was alienating her sister and best friend Greg. But life has changed her, and she must face the consequences of her actions and try to make them right.

Dashing Through the Snow by Melissa Ferguson finds Willow dumped by her boyfriend on the eve of a romantic cross country train trip. Certain he would propose, she decides to take the trip on The Christmas Express solo. Ferguson usually writes with much humor and banting back and forth with her characters. I was a little disappointed as this story felt a little flat.

A Perfectly Splendid Christmas by Amy Clipston was a delightful story. Kacey returns home to help her sister run her bakery, as her BIL lost his job and is having difficulty finding another one. Kacey is drawn to her former classmate Drew. But do they have too many differences to make a relationship work?
