Review: Uneven, but enjoyable

Out of the three, Jaci Burton's "The Best Thing" and HelenKay Dimon's "We'll Be Home for Christmas" were definitely the two I liked best. "Ask Her at Christmas" was just so-so--definitely not as good as Christi Barth's full-length novel, Planning for Love. Her story here just...lacked. The characters were fairly weak, and the resolution seemed a bit too easy, especially given the doom and gloom build up that came before.Even though Burton's and Dimon's stories were part of a series, I didn't feel lost by not knowing the stories that had gone before (though, of course, I did have to go out and get my hands on them...all part of the evil plan, I'm sure). For what they are--short, steamy, holiday reads--these two stories are worth the price!
