Overview

Sleigh Ride: A Winter Anthology includes seven wintry tales of romance, adventure and drama by award-winning women authors. Each short story includes a sleigh ride and is sure to put the reader in the mood for the most wonderful season of all.

In Samantha Wilde's "Monks and Musicians," a family sleigh ride turns a mother's life upside down, leaving her to decide the fate of her future and family.

In the romantic comedy "Noche Beuna," Maria Geraci shares what happens when a woman breaks tradition and takes the holidays into her own hands.

Jenny Peterson explores the powerful bond of sisters with a painful past in "Fairy Lights."

A phone call out of the blue from the former great love of her life causes a pharmacist to question her past and whether or not a second chance is worth the risk in Dani Stone's humorous, "No Place Like Home."

In Megan Barlog's story, "The Escape," a stable owner with a hover sleigh is drawn to a troubled young woman who needs his help to avoid the bleak future planned out for her.

When her dog jumps out of the car in a snowstorm in Vermont, the California girl has the wildest night of her life on her journey to find her dog and heal her heart in Maggie Marr's, "Dashing Through the Snow."

A grieving mother returns home at the holidays to face the family she walked away from after tragedy in Malena Lott's, "Snowflakes and Stones."

Called "beautiful" and "touching," this collection is a Good Read/Good Deed project with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the domestic violence prevention cause through the Alpha Chi Omega foundation.

Editorial Reviews

Becky Gulc
"Well-written. The stories were dealing with very real and heartfelt issues yet each was ultimately positive and uplifting. I particularly enjoyed Malena Lott’s ‘Snowflakes and Stones’ story about a separated couple, Moira and Grayson. I don’t want to give anything away but this story was so moving. An ideal buy if you enjoy short stories and are looking for quick reads." - Becky Gulc, Chick Lit Central
