Celebrate Christmas on Blossom Street with a brand-new romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber!

Katherine O'Connor often spends her days at a cozy1 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 deception2. In fact, the renowned3 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 . . .

Debbie Macomber, the author of 6 Rainier Drive, Susannah's Garden, 50 Harbor Street, A Good Yarn4 and The Shop on Blossom Street, has become a leading voice in women's fiction worldwide. Her work has appeared on every major bestseller list, including those of theNew York Times, USA Today and Publishers Weekly. She is a multiple award winner, and won the 2005 Quill5 Award for Best Romance. There are more than sixty million copies of her books in print.
