Next up in our Romancing The Holidays countdown is my own contribution to the set, the 7th story in my Wishful series, Dance Me A Dream.    I have a serious soft spot for this story.  I actually wrote it LAST Christmas when I couldn’t find what I wanted to read or watch (and hoo buddy, you can believe I go THROUGH the holiday movies!).  This one is in the vibe of the Hallmark Channel movies I love, and I hope it gives you warm fuzzies to read. 🙂

Dance Me A Dream

Jace Applewhite is home for the holidays, helping out on his family’s Christmas tree farm and enjoying some much needed downtime between semesters of grad school.  He’s intrigued by the sexy and serious barista from The Daily Grind, but she’s got a Hand’s Off vibe that can be seen from miles away.

Tara Honeycutt missed most of her college years being single parent to her two younger half siblings.  Working multiple jobs, she’s forgotten what it’s like to be a normal twenty-something.  All her focus is on giving the kids some new holiday memories.

When a major gas line breaks, leaving them with no heat, no hot water, and no way to cook for Christmas. Jace invites Tara and her sibs out to Applewhite Farms.  Will a good old fashioned farmhouse Christmas be enough to get Tara to give him a second glance?
