Book excerpt: It’s about to be a very Merry Christmas… Olive: Moving to Wolf Valley has been the best decision of my life. It’s the perfect place to run my bakery and it’s also where I meet Xavier Grady, the man of my dreams. He’s tall, grumpy, and guarded, my opposite in almost every way, but none of that matters to me. I know that he has secrets and that he’s wounded from his time in the military, but that only makes me want to break down his walls even more. Xavier: I was finally starting to get used to being back in this small town. Then Olive Baker moves in across the street from me and flips my life upside down. I thought I liked my boring life and sleepy town, but now, I’m not so sure. There’s something addictive about the curvy little spitfire that I can’t seem to resist. I know that nothing could happen between us because she could never want a grumpy scrooge like me, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting her. When I finally confess how I feel about her, will it end up being too late, or am I about to get everything that I ever wanted this Christmas?

Download or read book The 12 Days of Christmas written by Harry Rand and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2023-08-23 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the whole body of Christmas carols sung in English, among the most famous and beloved is a song universally called "The Twelve Days of Christmas." Although its association with the holiday remains unquestioned, the tune was originally a raucous drinking song with wildly different connotations. This book documents the unfamiliar and distant history of one of the world's most well-known holiday songs, inextricably linked to the earliest celebrations of a festival suppressed by the Church itself. The rowdy and mischievous tone of traditional Christmas has vanished, as have the songs that accompanied the festival of drinking, gambling, fighting, feasting and sex. Modern participants of Christmas may be either embarrassed or pleased to discover the scandalous roots of a beloved holiday classic.
