I'm so honored to have awesome author, Dariel Raye, to my blog today. She's not only a great writer but such a sweet soul. Thank you for taking the time to read about her new Christmas book! Note: Christmas Wish # 1 and Christmas Wish #2.
“Secret Admirer’s
Christmas Wish #1”
Sometimes, a little Christmas magic delivers
love in the most inconvenient places.
Cheryl Hightower has an iron-clad mind for
figures, statistics, and organization. That’s all well and good, but she also
has a creative side screaming to be unleashed from a desk, computer, and
horn-rimmed glasses. When she finally finds the courage to follow her heart,
her orderly life seems to unravel, leading her to a new job with vipers at
every turn, and leaving her in a position of uncertainty for the first time
since childhood.
The resulting encounter with the object of her
secret crush – who also happens to be her new boss – prompts both of them to
acknowledge the emptiness they’ve endured for far too long. The challenge is
figuring out what to do about it.

“Secret Admirer’s
Christmas Wish #2”
When a former ugly duckling and the former
class heart-throb come together as adults, they find out they have more in
common than they realized.
Glenda Shaw knows firsthand what it’s like to be
an ugly duckling, and now, she is roped into helping to organize her tenth-year
class reunion. The speaker this year is none other than Hunter Teegs, the
object of her dreams since their sophomore year in high school. She’s a
dedicated social worker with a heart the size of Texas, but her hectic schedule
doesn’t allow much time for dating or entertainment.

Hunter Teegs is a self-made financial powerhouse
with a boatload of charisma and a winning sense of humor. He’s also a notorious
womanizer and heartbreaker. He has no interest in settling down any time soon,
if ever. To make matters worse, he has recently noticed details from his
childhood that cause him to question everyone and everything he’s come to believe.
When Glenda and Hunter are brought together
again, fireworks nearly knock both of them off their feet, and not necessarily
in a good way. Glenda knows more than one secret about Hunter, and sharing the
most crucial one could mean the end of their relationship before it even gets
started.
