"Prepare for tears in your eyes-A Warm Southern Christmas is that kind of story." -Connie Shelton, USA Today bestselling authorWhen Luke Tattersall buried his brother and sister-in-law on a raw October day he took in their two children to raise as his own. He didn't account for the fact that in 1890s small-town Mississippi, single fatherhood was not an option. It isn't long before the sheriff visits, informing him that, without a wife, Luke will lose the children to their cold-hearted aunt and uncle. Under that threat he vows to be married by Christmas. Only problem is, none of the local girls are interested in marrying a sawmill worker with little money and two half-grown kids.Stephanie Cotter is living with the scandal of having broken off her engagement, and now her father has promised her to a man three times her age. She'll do anything to get out of Seattle, out from under her father's thumb. Including marriage to a man in Mississippi she's never met? Climbing aboard the southbound train is one of the most difficult things she's ever done but she's determined to make the best of it. Will the children accept her as their new mother, and will she and Luke ever find love and intimacy? And what kind of Christmas can she possibly expect in her new Southern home?Praise for A Warm Southern Christmas:"-will just reach out and grab your heart!!!" –Brenda Smith, 5 stars, Amazon"Five Stars-a must read!" – Sandra Mayhew, 5 stars, Amazon"A WARM SOUTHERN CHRISTMAS (Susan Tanner) was my favorite!" JJares, online review Susan Yawn Tanner is published in historical romance as Susan Tanner. Her novels, Highland Captive, Captive to A Dream, Exiled Heart, Fire Across Texas and Winds Across Texas as well as A Warm Southern Christmas (part of a Christmas anthology), were all published by Leisure Books.Writing as Susan Y. Tanner, Ms. Tanner's latest venture is a 'series within a series' of romantic mysteries showcasing one smart feline named Trouble. Because Ms. Tanner is a horse lover as well as a cat lover, her Trouble books all have backstories which feature the world of horses. Published by KaliOka Press, these books are part of the Familiar Legacy series written in concert with some very talented authors. Trouble in Summer Valley was released in 2017, Turning for Trouble in 2018, and Trouble in Action is slated for 2019.Ms. Tanner is excited that Secret Staircase Books, an imprint of Columbine Publishing Group, has opted to publish Fire Across Texas and Winds Across Texas, as well as A Warm Southern Christmas, in both print and e-book. This is the first time these titles have been available in e-book.Tanner barrel races and writes with equal enthusiasm.
