The Simon & Schuster The Twelve Loves of Christmas

Count down to Christmas with twelve sealed festive love stories by beloved romance authors.

The Twelve Loves of Christmas is a swoon-worthy advent-style short story collection – some sweet, some spicy – about finding love during the most magical time of the year.

Including a playful forced proximity romance featuring a woman and her older brother’s grinchy (yet unexpectedly endearing) best friend, a tender love story of two neighbours who decide to skip Christmas together, a second-chance spark reignited between exes stranded at the airport and many more festive love stories like rivals-to-lovers, friends-to-lovers and fake dating, this collection offers a little holiday magic for every reader. Each short story delivers its own dose of charm, chemistry and festive cheer.

Open one sealed story at a time in the lead-up to Christmas to unwrap a season full of love, warmth and happily ever afters.
