November 20, 2001: I was introduced to Lynnn Kurland's books not so long ago and I had a hard time trying to collect all her books specially the anthologies with other authors. This book came out just in time to save me from any further frustration!! Four fantastic short stories about de Piaget and Macleod families. 'The gift of christmas past' is my most favorite. This story was previously published in The christmas cat anthology which is really hard to find. The story is about a romantic time travelling of a luckless Abigail Garrett who eventually found her true love in england medieval time. The same storyline continues in 'And the groom wore tulle' (previously published in Veils of time anthology) ..only this time, The magnificent Ian Macleod travelled through time to find his love in a modern day world. 'The icing on the cake' (previously published in Opposites attract anthology) and 'The three wise ghosts' (previously published in Christmas Spirits anthology) are pretty much about modern day romance.. but of course, it's about the decendents of de Piaget and Macleod line. Since these are all short stories, you will see all relationship between characters developed in, kind of, a short period of time..not like other of Kurland's books. But her writing is still full of humor and heart-warming feeling. I found myself laughed and smiled a lot while going through each page. So if you are Lynn Kurland's fan or just looking around to find good romance novellas to read, I highly recommend you to get this book. It's worth every penny you spend.!!!

June 23, 2001: ?The Gift of Christmas Past?. In his previous eight lives, Sir Maximillian Sweetums the feline was able to see that his human wards were successfully settled.

?The Three Wise Ghosts?. The trio of ghosts was frustrated with all work and no play Gideon. They decide that American visitor Megan McKinnon would be perfect to shake up the London CEO. Only each ghost, wonders how to matchmake without killing one another.

?And the Groom Wore Tulle?. In 1313 in a Scottish dungeon, Ian MacLeod drifts off to a wary sleep only to awaken in a 1999 Manhattan bridal saloon. There he meets designer Jane Fergusson, whose boss Petronia Witherspoon takes unfair advantage of her talent. That is until Ian becomes involved with Jane.

?The Icing On the Cake?. In Alaska writer-chef Sam Macleod of New York City meets wilderness guide Sydney Kincaid when they both rent the same cabin at the same time. This pair is not just opposites. They are universal opposites until love finds a way to bind them together.

All four stories are different yet contain Lynn Kurland?s humorous approach to loving relationships. Each tale is fun, amusing, and filled with delightful quirky characters that make LOVE CAME JUST IN TIME for the reader.
