A Groovy Christmas

"Legend is a small town that will remind readers of Cedar Cove and/or Virgin River.”

TWO NOVELLAS: CHRISTMAS 1968 AND CHRISTMAS 1969

CHRISTMAS 1968: A GROOVY CHRISTMAS
Kathleen Fields expects a New Year’s Eve proposal from her longtime beau. It’s 1968 and women are burning bras and freely making love. Before settling down to a boring life in boring Legend, Tennessee, Kathleen wants to experience a little of the excitement of her peers. And more than anything, she wants to do something about being a virgin.

Hippie and political activist Grant Winchester has received his draft notice. Uncertain about dodging the draft, he stops in Legend to visit his aunt before the holidays. Not finding her at home, Grant rediscovers his high school sweetheart, and his plans take an unexpected turn.

Like the Hatfield’s and the McCoy’s, Kathleen and Grant’s families have been feuding for decades. Yet Grant is a likely candidate to solve her problem. Risking her future with Grant, Kathleen discovers that free sex is not so free, and sometimes the man of your dreams comes into your life when you least expect it.

CHRISTMAS 1969: NOT QUITE CHRISTMAS
Accountant Frank Smith doesn’t want to go home for Christmas, not after he was dumped by his long-time girlfriend on Christmas Day a year ago. Avoiding Legend, Tennessee, is high on his priority list until he meets his mother’s houseguest—hippie chick Emmy Johnson, a girl with a past . . . . and maybe Frank’s future.
