It’s that time of year again – Christmas! And the question in my latest contest is: What would be your perfect way to spend Christmas? Would you like money to be no object? Or would you be happy with your family around you? The more I think about this the  more I realise that it does not matter whether we’re financially well off. Christmas is a time for families. To have our loved ones around us.

In 2004 I wrote a book called Her Husband’s Christmas Bargain. My poor hero had fathered a daughter he knew nothing about. She is four years old when the story starts and she asks Santa for a Daddy for Christmas. And guess what – she gets her wish. It’s a long uphill struggle before her Mummy and Daddy finally get back together but love conquers all in the end.

So do you agree with me that Christmas is about family get togethers and not money? Or do you think Christmas is too commercialised these days? Would you like to fly away from it all and enjoy a holiday somewhere different? Email me your answers here and you could win a copy of my latest book – The Twelve-Month Marriage Deal. The perfect Christmas present to yourself!

Happy Christmas everyone!
