THE TWELVE DESSERTS OF CHRISTMAS by JOANNE FLUKE
This story is about a group of kids who are left behind at the Christmas holidays at the boarding school.
Julie and Matt, both teachers will chaperon the kids, 3 boys, 3 girls and they discover there are NO desserts for them.
Julie was a HS friend of Andrea who's sister is Hannah the one that bakes and owns the Cookie Jar. She is persuaded to deliver desserts to them daily and each gets to pick out a favorite of theirs.
The teachers are romantically inclined and it's not hardship for them to be there together.
Mystery starts when the kids sign the wager. Love the story of the Christmas cake.
Love how Hannah and her family and friends help the kids celebrate. They are blown away with happiness.
Can't wait to read of Hannah's stories.
Recipes are included along with conversion tables at the end. Note from the author is included.

THE CHRISTMAS THIEF by LESLIE MEIER
This story is about Elizabeth, working at big hotel chain, in FL. She's going to pack her suitcase for her Christmas holiday vacation to Maine to visit with the family.
Problem is a famous person is hosting a holiday party there for 4 days and she's getting a new position-a helper for any needs the guests want.
She cancels her trip and dives into her new temp position...
Her friend tells her it's all good, she will meet single men...
Lots of crazy scenes and the jewels go missing. Elizabeth is accused and before she knows it others are there to help her gather clues.
Had never heard the shanty about the codfish bones, cool.
