Title: The Christmas Fairy
Subtitle: Libby Madsen Cozy Mysteries Holiday Novella
Description: Libby Madsen and her best friend Alexis Johnson are about to realize their longtime dream of opening their own business, a luxurious day spa in Mesa, Arizona. They’ll offer massages, aromatherapy treatments, and meditation—everything harried city dwellers need. The contractors are nearly done, and the ladies have the brilliant idea to hold their grand opening right before Christmas. They’ll decorate to the hilt and host a gala evening that will launch their business in fine style.

Libby gets a tip on a party planner—good thing, as he’s the only one available on short notice at the holiday season. But when he takes off with their money and there’s not a decoration or nibble of food in sight, what will they do?

Lexi receives a mysterious package from India, from her beloved grandmother who passed away some time ago, along with a letter of encouragement. Will the contents of the package truly help them out of their dilemma? Or does the tiny woman in pink who walks through the door have something to do with it? They may not know the answer until the very last minute, but the party must go on!
