The small town of Timberton, Montana, boasts an ambiance of near-magical proportions during the Christmas season, due in no small part to resident artist and chef Mist's mysterious way of working small miracles in people's everyday lives. Each year, return guests and new arrivals mingle with local townsfolk to enjoy companionship, exquisite decor, and exceptional cuisine at The Timberton Hotel.
As the aromas of ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and molasses mix with heartfelt camaraderie and sweet romance, guests share reflections on family, friendship, and life. Although decorating the outside of a gingerbread house may prove easier than deciding what goes inside, no one leaves Timberton without renewed hope for the future.

Mistletoe at Moonglow, The Moonglow Series, Book 1
The Timberton Hotel has always provided a perfect Christmas retreat for regular guests, as well as newcomers. But the small town of Timberton, Montana, hasn't been the same since resident chef and artist, Mist, arrived, bringing a unique new age flavor to the old western town.
When guests check in for the holidays, they bring along worries, fears and broken hearts, unaware that Mist has a way of working magic in people's lives. Old-fashioned time spent together, exquisite food, conversation and a snowball or two offer guests a chance to trade sadness for hope. One thing is certain: no matter how cold winter's grip is on each guest, no one leaves Timberton without a warmer heart.

Silver Bells at Moonglow, The Moonglow Series, Book 2
Christmas at the Timberton Hotel arrives each year with a unique set of guests, some returning, some new. When this holiday brings a celebrity seeking reprieve, sisters who are distant yet closer to each other than they think, a widow approaching a new horizon, and an eclectic smattering of local townsfolk and visiting relatives, the season is certain to be eventful. Add in a hint of romance and there's more than snow in the air around the small Montana town.
Elegant decor and exquisite cuisine from resident artist and chef, Mist, form a backdrop to much needed camaraderie, bringing strangers and friends together. When the last note of Christmas carols has faded away, the soft whisper of silver bells from the front door's wreath will usher guests and townsfolk alike back into the world with hope for the coming year.

MY REVIEW
It’s Christmas
time at the Timberton Hotel, and as always, Mist is working her magic to make everything
perfect for the guests this year. There are the returning favorites, like Miss
Clara, the Professor, and of course Mist’s favorite Michael Blanton. A few new
faces show up also. This year’s theme has unofficially become everything
gingerbread. The only glitch to come along was in relaying the measurements of
the gingerbread house needed for the guests to decorate. But as with everything
that involves Mist, it still turns out perfect.
Like
the guests, I love returning to the Moonglow Café at the Timberton Hotel. The
magic of the place is so palpable that you feel like you are part of the story.
Every time I read this series, I feel peaceful and relaxed. I would love to
find a place like this to spend, no, make that hide away, every Christmas.
Maybe that way I can actually taste all the sweets and special meals instead of
just imagining how they taste.
