';Eight romance authors walk into a Regency-era ballroom and wreak fabulous, shimmering holiday mischief all over the place.'Publishers WeeklyChristmas 1815.Upstairs and downstairs, Holbourne Abbey is abuzz with preparations for a grand ball to celebrate the year's most festiveand romanticholiday. For at the top of each guest's wish list is a last chance to find true love before the New Year . . . ';The tales are rather sentimental, a box of chocolates with sweet, soft centers inside a dark covering, a pleasant confection for the holiday season. My personal favorites are Anne Gracie's ';Mistletoe Kisses,' a charming variant on the Cinderella story, and Susan King's ';A Scottish Carol,' whose lovers must struggle to find healing for the wounds of self-doubt and past failures; but there is ample variety here for other tastes.
