After I read the excerpt of “The Christmas Curse”, I knew I had to buy this short story written by Marianne Arkins and published by The Wild Rose Press. I read it on my birthday and it was a wonderful present to myself! Marianne’s short stories are enjoyable to read with happy endings. This story is another engaging one, and her characters are well-developed for a short story. I liked how I learned more information about Molly’s family later in the story instead of having too much information in the beginning.

Here is a blurb:

For Molly Scott, everything bad in her life has happened during the Christmas season, from training bras in her stocking to being jilted by her fiancé. This year is no exception.

Ten days before Christmas, she arrives at work to find her department closed down and everyone laid off. Desperate, she takes a job for a singing telegram service and, dressed as Mrs. Claus, meets the man of her dreams–who turns out to be a nightmare–in a broken down elevator. The Christmas Curse is right on track.

The cost is only $3.00. There are 30 pages of delightful reading! Click here to buy it!
