Book excerpt: For Cassie Beaumont, it’s meeting her perfect match. Cassie, at thirty-three, wants a husband and kids, and so far nothing’s worked. Not blind dates, not the internet and certainly not leaving love to chance. What other options are there? Well…she could hire a professional matchmaker. Simon Dodson has quite a reputation, but he’s very choosy about the clients he takes on—and very expensive. Cassie considers him a difficult, acerbic know-it-all, and she’s astonished when he accepts her as a client. Claiming he has her perfect mate in mind, Simon assigns her three tasks to complete before she meets this paragon. Three tasks that are all about Christmas: being a charity bell-ringer, dressing up as Santa’s elf at a mall and preparing a traditional turkey dinner for her neighbors (most of whom she happens to dislike). Despite a number of comical mishaps, Cassie does it all—and then she’s finally ready to meet her match. But just like the perfect Christmas gift, he turns out to be a wonderful surprise!

Book excerpt: As the first rays of the sun peek over nature’s valley, a redheaded woodpecker busily drills, a doe’s hooves make crunching sounds in the snow, and two Christmas trees--one perfect and one not so perfect--wait for someone to choose them, and hopefully not for firewood. Runt’s needles are multi-colored and not two of his branches are the same size. Grace is perfectly shaped without a blemish or pine cone to scar her profile. As they anxiously wait, Davey and his parents head into the woods to find the perfect tree. But after they choose Grace and haul her home, Runt is left alone without a purpose--or so he thinks. In this delightful holiday tale for children, nature shares a simple and beautiful lesson about the true meaning of the Christmas spirit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Candle flames flicker in the lamps on the flanks of our governess cart as a silver moon and sprinkled stars illuminate the driveway ahead.” This collection of short stories begins with Christmas snow and a pony and is followed by many more tales of horses. They are based on Hilary’s personal experiences with her son’s naughty Welsh pony and her own equines. An avid rider, Hilary has accumulated many embarrassing incidents in the saddle and out and these provided the fodder for the fiction and non-fiction tales in this book. They include humorous accounts of what can go wrong at a horse show, swimming pool accidents, uninvited horse entry into church, rescuing an unwanted racehorse and how a skinny neurotic Thoroughbred mare became the author’s equine soulmate. If there’s one thing Hilary has learned, it's that you never know what might happen next with horses.
