Dylann Crush | Happy Holidays from Holiday, Texas!
October 30, 2018
Happy Holidays from Holiday, Texas! The little town of
Holiday doesn’t need much of a reason to throw a party. With a name like Holiday, every day is
a celebration! But when it comes to Christmas, like most of their fellow Texans, they tend to go
all out. Folks living in the state of Texas definitely have their share
of holiday traditions. From the lighted boat parade at the Harbor Lights Festival in Corpus
Christi to the festive twenty-six-foot weihnachtspyramide in Fredericksburg, some towns go
Christmas crazy! And we haven’t even talked about the food yet. If you celebrate Christmas in
Texas you’ll be just as likely to eat tamales or brisket as you are to chow down on a deep-fried
turkey. Small towns, in particular, are a special place to spend the
holidays, especially in the Hill Country of Texas. There’s nothing like strolling down Main
Street, cup of wassail in hand, peeking in all of the shop windows as you go. If you’d rather
ride, you can head to Bandera and go Christmas caroling on horseback. In Lockhart, you can
rub elbows with carolers in period costumes during their annual Dickens’ Christmas. And if
you’re in Gruene, Texas, you might catch a glimpse of Cowboy Kringle riding into town.
In Cowboy
Christmas Jubilee you’ll get to experience some
of the quirky, fun and crazy traditions they celebrate in Holiday, Texas. They kick off the
season with the Turkey Trotter on Thanksgiving Day. Teams of four race around, perform
different stunts and then try to be the first ones across the finish line. The past seven years
have seen a Walker brother on the winning team. You’ll have to check in to see if the streak
continues once Jinx arrives. The elementary school always puts on a Christmas
production, although most years it’s not scheduled on the same night as the live nativity at the
church next door. The kids can always count on Kermit to step into the role of Santa Claus for
the annual breakfast with Santa. Even though he doesn’t leave his Christmas tree farm very
often, he does look forward to venturing into town to pose as jolly old Saint Nick. Visitors to Holiday ought to be aware of the Kissmas Cam.
Sprigs of Mistletoe hang all over town. Those who indulge in a smooch might just find
themselves broadcast on the big screen in the square at the annual tree lighting. The
ceremony is part of the Jingle Bell Jamboree where the whole town gathers for Christmas
carols, fun activities like the Make It Before It Melts Snowman contest and a cup of cocoa.
I can’t tell you about all of the fun—I don’t want to spoil the
story. But if you enjoy small-town charm, spending time with family and friends, and
unexpected surprises that will warm the chill right out of those cold winter nights, I hope you’ll
visit Holiday, Texas in the pages of Cowboy Christmas Jubilee!
Holiday, Texas Book 2
Merry Christmas from your new friends in Holiday, Texas:
The most celebratory town in the South! When Jinx Jacobs's motorcycle breaks down outside Holiday, Texas,
the last thing she wants is to get stuck in the cheery little town,
especially during the holidays. The whole place has gone Christmas
crazy, but all she has to do is stay out from under the mistletoe—and
do her best to keep that unnervingly attractive cop off her back. Single dad and sheriff's deputy Cash Walker doesn't have time for
romance, and yet something about the tempting loner twists his
stomach up tighter than a tangle of tinsel. He may have finally found
the missing piece in his life...but with Jinx so determined to avoid
putting down roots, convincing her to stay may just take a Christmas
miracle. Holiday, Texas Series:

Dylann Crush writes contemporary romance with sizzle and sass. A romantic at heart, she
loves her heroines spunky and her heroes super sexy. When she’s not dreaming up steamy
storylines, she can be found sipping a margarita and searching for the best Tex-Mex food in
Minnesota. Although she grew up in Texas, she currently lives in a suburb of Minneapolis/St. Paul with her
unflappable husband, three energetic kids, a clumsy Great Dane, a rescue mutt, and a very
chill cat. She loves to connect with readers, other authors and fans of tequila.

I love reading Christmas romances or mysteries usually starting in November and I leave them all out on a table for family and friends to borrow. Christmas is my favorite holiday because of great memories from when I was a child, when my 2 sons were little and now I have 2 grandsons to love on, spoil and pass Christmas traditions. Am so very anxious to read Cowboy Christmas Jubilee to add to my collection. (Denise Walsh 1:58pm October 31, 2018)

This story sounds like it incorporates some of my favorite story elements. The small towns in their own way become characters in the stories. The West is a special place which gives certain characteristics to the people who are born and live there. Thirdly, Christmas. There is just something special about that time of the year. It gives a certain air that promises more and that things will be better. (Patricia Barraclough 1:27am November 1, 2018)
