Christmas Rescue Series by Elissa Strati, V. McKevitt

Barnabas had his whole life planned out. He'd even chosen his future wife. Then the war got in the way. Things changed on the home front and he changed on the warfront. Now, war torn and weary, he is starting anew and heading West. Dorothy lost the love of her life and father of her children to the War Between the States. She has made a life for herself and her children, and is content. Until she meets Barnabas. Can Christmas magic mend their hearts?

When their parents died, Abigail took over the household for her younger brother Charles. Then he went off to war and she moved to Texas with her aunt and uncle, planning to return as soon as the war was over. Now Charles is back, but he’s getting married and no longer needs her. When she comes back for his wedding, she must decide whether to remain in Kansas or return to Texas—to be ignored by the man she loves. Will she get a Christmas miracle as her brother did?
