One strong-willed, spunky female and one healing, heart-heavy lord. Two lonely souls stranded together during a wretched, snowy night... Arguing over the business end of a shovel, Lady Anne Larchmont and the scarred soldier who offers aid despite his recent injuries take refuge from the storm that caught them both unaware. When sparks fly and kisses warm with this coarse-speaking but compelling stranger, she regrets ever agreeing to the clod-brained engagement her father arranged (with the unmet betrothed who’s ignored her for months), especially when, after tonight, she’ll be wishing for the beguiling soldier she’ll never see again. Battle scarred and bone-weary, the prodigal Lord Redford returns home seeking solace—intent on pushing everyone away after an unexpected and touching interlude he cannot scrap from his mind. Only he’s greeted not with the small welcome party he expected, but with a house full of people ready to celebrate the holiday season and his engagement. Which is going to prove rather a challenge, given how he’s never met his betrothed… Or has he? ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you like feel-good stories full of wit and wordplay, loved Signet Regencies from authors like Mary Balogh, Carla Kelly and Barbara Metzger, Larissa Lyons’ heartfelt holiday Christmas Kisses are what you want in your stocking.

The only hope for its salvation is if Jenny can film the Christmas Revels production she’s directing and sell it for television broadcasting.

Greg Marino has worked hard for his success as a Hollywood cinematographer, and he has an Oscar sitting by his coffee maker to prove it. But he still has fond memories of the fling he had with Jenny Lyme ten years earlier when they worked together on a disastrous movie. When she calls and asks if he’d film her community Christmas show, he decides it would be a fun break in his demanding life. And it would be really, really nice to see Jenny again.

Download or read book Analyzing Christmas in Film written by Lauren Rosewarne and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2017-12-06 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Film plays a vital role in the celebration of Christmas. For decades, it has taught audiences about what the celebration of the season looks like – from the decorations to the costumes and to the expected snowy weather – as well as mirrors our own festivities back to us. Films like It’s a Wonderful Life and Home Alone have come to play key roles in real-life domestic celebrations: watching such titles has become, for many families, every bit as important as tree-trimming and leaving cookies out for Santa. These films have exported the American take on the holiday far and wide and helped us conjure an image of the perfect holiday. Rather than settling the ‘what is a Christmas film?’ debate – indeed, Die Hard and Lethal Weapon are discussed within – Analyzing Christmas in Film: Santa to the Supernatural focuses on the how Christmas is presented on the deluge of occasions when it appears. While most Christmas films are secular, religion makes many cameos, appearing through Nativity references, storylines involving spiritual rebirth, the framing of Santa as a Christ-like figure and the all-importance of family, be it the Holy family or just those gathered around the dining table. Also explored are popular narratives involving battles with stress and melancholy, single parents and Christmas martyrs, visits from ghosts and angels, big cities and small towns, break-ups and make-ups and the ticking clock of mortality. Nearly 1000 films are analyzed in this volume to determine what the portrayal of Christmas reveals about culture, society and faith as well as sex roles, consumerism, aesthetics and aspiration.
