Glad Tidings by Debbie Macomber

I read Glad Tidings by Debbie Macomber over the Christmas holiday. This novel contained two stories - "There is Something About Christmas" and "Here Comes Trouble!"

"There is Something About Christmas" is the story of reporter Emma Collins. She has a hatred for fruitcake, but has to write several columsn about three different Washington State women who are finalists in a national fruitcake contest. Each woman has a unique story to tell. Unfortunately Emma (who is afraid of flying) has to fly with a hot pilot named Oliver Hamilton to interview each lady. Sparks fly and romance abounds.

"Here Comes Trouble!" is a nice story where Nolan and Maryanne Adams tell their children how they met and got together at Christmas. They were once rival columnists at Seattle papers. Maryanne was a "debutante" out to prove herself and Nolan had some baggage himself. Soon these two rivals get together and can't stay apart.

I enjoyed this book. Both stories were well written nice romantic tales. It's a good book for Christmas.
