Hehe, this looks so cute! And the fact it includes a short story from Nalini Singh is a total bonus!

The Magical Christmas Cat
Various Authors (Berkley)
Publication Date: 2008
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Amazon: UK Kindle | UK Paperback | US Kindle | US Paperback
The Book Depository

Summary:

Put a little meow in their stockings this year with these all-new tales of Christmas and felines—from beloved bestselling authors!

New York Times bestselling author Lora Leigh and top-selling authors Nalini Singh, Erin McCarthy, and Linda Winstead Jones have a special gift for readers this year: never-before published holiday stories featuring passionate romance, paranormal adventure, and a distinctly alluring feline touch. With four new stories—including one featuring Lora Leigh’s genetically altered Feline Breeds—this is a collection packed with more surprises than Christmas morning, and more chills than the snowiest winter night.… (Goodreads)

Another fab sounding Christmas read with bite – I have yet to read these authors, but I’ve heard both series they write are great, so I must get to them soon.

The Bite Before Christmas
Lynsay Sands & Jeaniene Frost  (William Morrow)
Publication Date: Oct 2011
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Amazon: UK Hardback | UK Kindle | US Hardcover | US Kindle
The Book Depository

Summary:

In Lynsay Sands’ “The Gift,” Katricia Argeneau knows grey-eyed cop Teddy Brunswick is her life mate. She just needs to convince him they belong together, and being snowbound in a secluded cabin will make this a Christmas neither will forget. 

It’s “Home for the Holidays” in Jeaniene Frost’s Night Huntress series. Cat and Bones may long to wrap presents and set up a tree, but this Christmas, an evil vampire and long-buried family secrets will threaten to take a bite out of their holiday cheer. (Goodreads)

So, that’s what’s on my wishlist this week – what’s on yours?

    Thanks for sharing, I haven't heard of the first one, sounds interesting. The second one I am looking to read simply because of Jeaniene Frost, who I love.

    Despite the kinda corny cover, the Christmas Cat one sounds really good! I have the other one on my wishlist as well! Happy reading!

    Merry Christmas!
