Eggnog and Candy Canes: A Blueberry Springs Christmas Novella (14 page)

Love and Rumors
~ Can photographer Hailey Summer use movie star Finian Alexander to save her family’s cottage? Or will she have to risk revealing her secrets and failures to her family? When she finally gets Finian in the tabloids…he’s not alone! Can they work together or is Hailey about to face her worst nightmares?

Love and Dreams
~ Business woman Maya Summer continues the quest to save the cottage by providing an executive retreat for her business world hero, Connor MacKenzie. The only problem is that the real-life version of Connor is not the man she’s always dreamed of and every time she turns around, she’s further from saving the cottage, and further from merging with Connor and making a difference.

Love and Trust
~ Melanie Summer puts her legal mind to good use as she struggles to find loopholes to not only save the family cottage, but also prevent a disruptive development across the water. She can’t do it alone and must convince the former land developer Tristen Bell to put on his old suit—one he promised he’d never wear again—and help her out. (Coming winter 2014.)

Love and Danger
~ Hippie chick Daphne Summer is sure she can stop the development across the water from the Summer’s family cottage, and with the backing of some large environmentalists, she’s finally got some power behind her, but not everyone is happy with her voicing her opinion. To keep her and her five-year-old daughter safe, she’s forced to hire an ex-marine, Evander de la Fosse—who represents everything she hates, to serve as her bodyguard as she works to save the environment she so dearly loves in the explosive finale to this series of sisters, and the power of love. (Coming in 2015.)

About the Author

Jean Oram grew up in an old schoolhouse on the Canadian prairie. She didn't realize she wanted to write until one day she sat down, giggling, and declared, "I'm going to write a novel!" And she did. But this isn't it. That one was kind of a disaster because she didn't even know how long a novel should be, but she learned a lot and had fun. You can learn more about Jean and her hobbies—besides writing and chasing her two kids and various pets around the house and the great outdoors—on her website:
