Christmas Is a Time for Romance at a 1880s Department Store

4 Christmas Romances in One Collection

Woolworth's Five and Dime is a magical place to work at Christmastime, but will it also be a place to fall in love in 1881?

Maggie Larson works the lunch counter, where she befriends a girl whose lonely father delivers milk each Friday. Hattie Scott learns her favorite customer is Englishman Timothy Branson and a threat to her brother's job. Essie Hensley doesn't need money, but welcomes the challenges of working a job where she meets a minister and six little boys who inspire Christmas wishes. A job is the only thing independent orphan Lizzie Miller needs, but she can't pass up an invite to a bookkeeper's family Christmas.

Perfect for Christian Fiction Listeners at Xmas

Some of my favorite authors have written charming novellas in this beautiful Christmas collection. One great thing is that you can listen to each novella separately. It's really hard to find novella collections on Audible, especially Christmas novellas. TY to Barbour for making this available on audiobook!

Endearing stories for any season

I was looking for just the right Historical Christmas book this year and of the few I’d chosen, this one was definitely my favorite! I’m old enough to remember the Woolworth store’s in the Chicagoland area that had a lunch counters. This book brought back sweet childhood memories of my mom, my grandma and myself stopping by for lunch on our shopping days. It was actually, the main reason I chose the book. I was a bit surprised however, that each story was faith based. It’s not listed in the description although it does mention a minister and perhaps that should have been my cue. That being said, I didn’t know it would be a theme throughout. It’s not pushy or overwhelming but it was unexpected. I would say that if you do enjoy Historical Romance, each of these stories are well written, fun and sweet. I enjoyed every one and they were unique in their own way, all revolving around Christmas and Woolworth’s. I ended up putting this in my favorites because in my opinion, they would be great to listen to any time of the year! I hope you’ll experience as much joy as I did while listening!
