Nice quick reading trio of short Christmas-related stories.

My Lady Below Stairs - cute story about the bastard daughter who works in her father's household as a maid. She's asked to pretend to be her missing half-sister to whom she bears a remarkable resemblance. We must set aside the fact that she would not have really been reared with the correct accent, manners, or dancing skills. And her beau, stable hand Ian, would also not have an upper-class accent or dance training. A cute story with a happy ending nonetheless.

The Longest Night - Jennifer Ashley gives us a little Crhistmas gift with a continuing Nvengaria story of Lady Mary and Valentin. I wish I'd read those books more recently, I forogt whom all the characters were. I also wish Valentin had been a bit more traditionally romantic.

Traditions - My favorite story of the three. Characters were more flushed out and the pace of the romance between Casselbury and Patience was just right.
