Sara Humphreys | A Very Amoveo Christmas
December 12, 2013
If the Amoveo were to celebrate Christmas, I'm quite sure they would gather at
the royal family's ranch in Montana. The place has already become something of a
compound for Amoveo who have mated with human-Amoveo hybrids. Between the Purist
Amoveo who hate the hybrids and the Caedo family (humans who hunt Amoveo), life
has been a little crazy lately. Someday I'd love to write a Christmas novella for my Amoveo and when I do, you
can bet there will be certain traditions celebrated by these ancient shape shfiters. Richard and Salinda Muldavi, the Amoveo royal couple, have had several children
in their three hundred year marriage and in all liklihood their offspirng would
return to share the holidays with the family. But the Christmas celebration
wouldn't be limited to blood relatives becuase all Amoveo are family--regardless
of blood relation or clan. They wouldn't get their tree form a lot. Oh no. They would find two trees on the
expansive property to cut down and use for the festive season. And due to their
skills of visualization they could get the trees back to the house in the blink
of an eye. Salinda would have a Christmas tree in the grand entry way decorated only with
little white lights and red bows but the living room would house the big tree.
They would gather together with all of the Amoveo who lived on the property to
decorate the tree the weekend after Thanksgiving. Dominic, the hero in
UNCLAIMED, would probably be caught giving the smaller children horsey rides
around the family room or letting them climb on him like a jungle gym. If there was snow on the ground for Christmas Eve, Richard would hook a few of
his prize horses up to a grand white and silver sleigh and take everyone on a
snowy sleigh ride around the ranch. While they wouldn't open all of their
presents on Christmas Eve, they would give the children one gift--a pair of
Christmas pajamas. The Amoveo would cherish time together and relish in the traditions they've
carved out over the years. While there would surely be grand gifts and sparklig
ornaments, the one thing that would stand out above all others is family. The
Amoveo may be beautiful, ancient, and powerful but more than anything else,
they're loyal and devoted to their loved ones. How about you? What's your favorite part of the holidays? One commenter

I am sorry to hear of your loss, Denise. The holidays can be tough when you've lost someone. It's been almost seven years now since I loss mine so I understand your pain.
(Sara Reyes 4:10am December 12, 2013)
Family I've spent so many Christmases alone it has taught me how
important family is.
(Chris Lewis 4:25am December 12, 2013)
The festivities & decorations at our local theme parks!
(Linda Townsend 7:10am December 12, 2013)
My favorite time is spending time with the grandchildren and watching the joy in their eyes Christmas morning!
(Bonnie Capuano 7:50am December 12, 2013)
Hi Denise--I'm so sorry about the loss of your mother! Sending you lots of love.
(Sara Humphreys 9:17am December 12, 2013)
Hi Sara R.--I don't think we ever get over the loss of a loved one. xx
(Sara Humphreys 9:18am December 12, 2013)
Hi Chris--Family is THE most important part of life. I hope you have loved ones
around this holiday season.
(Sara Humphreys 9:18am December 12, 2013)
Hi Linda! I never thought of visiting theme parks at the holidays but I bet they
look beautiful!
(Sara Humphreys 9:19am December 12, 2013)
Hi Bonnie--My mom says that being a grandparent is THE best.
(Sara Humphreys 9:19am December 12, 2013)
My favorite part of the Holidays starts with decorating the tree. The majority of the ornaments have been hand-made by me, and each one holds a memory. There are a couple on the tree that I made with my Mom. She's no longer here, and those are extra-special!! The other favorite part is the baking. I love to bake my Mom's special cookies, among others, that she was known for, and to give them to friends and family. It wouldn't be Christmas without having this as part of my yearly ritual!! May you have a very merry Christmas, and a happy and healthy New Year!!
(Peggy Roberson 9:29am December 12, 2013)
hi Peggy! I LOVE decorating the tree but baking is not my thing. Merry Christmas
to you and your family.
(Sara Humphreys 10:09am December 12, 2013)
Truth? I'm not a big fan of Christmas. My Mom passed away
on the 13th of December when I was 5 and since then my
Christmas' haven't felt 'Merry' despite everyone's and my
own attempts. But I do love watching children meeting
Santa. I love Santa! I love the happy faces, the scared
faces, but mostly I love how Santa makes the kids happy.
(Valerie Valicento 10:23am December 12, 2013)
Hi Valerie-I'm so sorry about the loss of your mother, especially at such a young
age. You're right about Santa. He sure does make the kids smile.
(Sara Humphreys 10:30am December 12, 2013)
I love that my family is together for the Holidays. Everyone
comes to our house and we just spend the day together.
(Karin Anderson 11:20am December 12, 2013)
My favourite part of the holiday's is spending time with my extended family. My grandmother, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc are all there. This is sometimes the only time of the year I see some ofthem.
(Victoria Kondovski 11:31am December 12, 2013)

(Yaritza Santana 5:39pm December 12, 2013)
I especially love getting together with family. But also love the Christmas music and movies, new Christmas books that come out to read, baking Christmas cookies and the beautiful Christmas lights and decorations, especially outside in front of all the homes (so gorgeous)! We have one home in our neighborhood that decorated the entire tiered roofline, windows, doors, etc. with bright deep blue lights, and it's breathtaking. Looks like a Christmas card.
(Linda Luinstra 5:49pm December 12, 2013)
I wanted to add, that I love your beautiful book cover with the wolf. The colors are beautiful. I love wolves esp. werewolves paranormal books so much, anyway. Thanks for the contest!
(Linda Luinstra 5:53pm December 12, 2013)

a 1000) to give to family and friends….Thanks for the give away.
(Sonia Forbus 6:00pm December 12, 2013)
I love when the hustle and bustle is over and I can sit and relax with an eggnog and cookies and enjoy the decorations. Love your Amoveo series ... it is amazing.
(Annetta Sweetko 8:58pm December 12, 2013)
Wow, Congrats on your new book: UNCLAIMED. I love the book
cover too! When, I was growing up on the farm in Kansas I
love the White Christmas every year with pretty presents and
family. Holidays are hard for me now because my Mom and
Sister both passed away a month before Christmas in 1995. I
am thankful for Jesus Christ saving us all and that is what
makes Christmas bearable. I used to be a Proofreader for
writers and thought I would let You know that Offspring and
Sparkling ornaments is misspelled too. I would love to win
and read your new book this Christmas. Happy Holidays and
Thank You very much. Cecilia CECE
