One kilt, two people meant to be together, and a dozen complications equal a Christmas fiasco in the making.No matter how Santa Claus tries to crunch the numbers, he can’t make them add up to equal a love match between museum curators Jack Lantz and Kirsten Nichols. The two lonely hearts are perfect for each other but they’re also too caught up in a race to acquire an antique kilt to notice their … notice their chemistry. Santa, however, is convinced that the two make an ideal couple. Perhaps adding a handful of North Pole elves and a pinch of holiday magic to the situation will help the course of true love run smooth?
What ensues is a romantic romp that begins in Scotland and ends at the North Pole, and begs this question: Will Kirsten and Jack discover the kilt’s location? Or will they find true love along the way?

This was another delightful romantic comedy story in the Christmas Central series. It had me chuckling at times and gave me hope for the future if we would only believe in the magic of Christmas. This time Santa tries to grant two people their Christmas wish. And of course, Rapz finds himself in a little trouble as usual. This series is so much fun to read and I sure hope this won’t be the last. Wonderful job Caroline Michelson for making Christmas, Santa and the North Pole a happy place for us to spend some time.
Jack and Kirsten both worked at museums. Both of them were searching for an elusive kilt from the Battle of Culloden. Both of them wrote a letter to Santa which led him to the conclusion that they were fated soul mates that needed help being brought together by the inhabitants of the North Pole. Fun and interesting story

Another Delightful Book in Holiday Romance Series
Until I started reading this book, I hadn’t realized that it was by the same author, and in fact, part of the same series as a story that I just loved, Mrs. Saint Nick. In fact, we see the featured couple from that book briefly in this one. This is a charming little holiday love story that is a smooth, delightful read. The hero and heroine, both museum curators, want to acquire a particular historical kilt for their museums. They had both written a letter to Santa asking for this kilt for Christmas and also to find their other halves. While some at the North Pole may think that this is a job better suited for Cupid, Santa says it is their domain because the letter was sent to him.
It turned out both also wanted the kilt for personal reasons as well, her because she hopes it will help her a promotion that will allow her to help assist her sister to provide better for her niece and nephew after the death of her brother-in-law and him as a way of paying homage to a relative. As they try to get the issue of the kilt sorted out, they develop a growing attraction, and it is clear to the reader that they would make a wonderful couple.
Again, this is just a delightful, slightly quirky holiday romance. I like this series, where Santa and the North Pole are so real, worrying about modern business practices even, while still being magical (adults writing to Santa?). It’s just a lot of fun.
I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.

Santa and his family try to fulfil two worthy wishes from two competitors, but find it challenging to do so.
A hilarious romantic story with a rogue elf, lovable Christmas characters and a grouchy Scotsman.
If you are familiar with the works of the author’ Christmas Central Series, you already know some of Santa’s family and know they would do anything to help others to find their HEA.
A story that is highly entertaining and well-written and can be read throughout the year – not just for Christmas.

Jack works at a museum in Texas. Growing up with a foster dad, he wanted to show him just how much he cared. To do that, he wants to but a special kilt. Kristen works for a museum in London and she wants the kilt to get a promotion to help her sister with her family. Both had written Santa to Santa asking hi to find their other half.
This is a delightful, cozy romance set in Scotland and Christmas Central. The characters are likeable and genuine, making you want them to find happiness. After a series of twists and turns and with Santa’s plan perhaps things may go right after all. This is great holiday tale that leaves you feeling positive. It is everything a contemporary cozy Christmas book should have, love, family, selflessness, and caring, oh and the humour of course.

This is a well written book with a sweet Christmas theme. The characters are strong,well developed and the story moves quickly and smoothly. I enjoyed the characters and their bantering as well as watching them come together. Another great book to the series.

Jack and Kirsten want the same thing and will not stop until they get it. They both wrote a letter to Santa Clause telling him that each one of them needed to find a certain thing plus they wanted to meet their other half and fall in love.
Jack wanted the kilt for his foster dad to see before he passed away. Kirsten worked for a museum and if she can get a hold of the kilt then she would get a raise. Her sisters kids had just lost their father and Kristen wanted to make sure they could stay in the school they were in. It was expensive and her sister did not have the extra money for it so she was going to pay for it from her raise.
Will Santa help Jack and Kirsten find what they are looking for or will they fail?

This is a job that Santa and the elves will have to work hard to accomplish! Jack Lantz is a museum curator who writes a letter to Santa asking for a specific Scottish family kilt with historic value. He also adds that he would like to find someone special, a love match.
Kirsten Nichols happens to also be a museum curator – and her letter to Santa asks for that SAME family quilt! Just as Jack had done, she adds her request to meet her love match. Can Santa and the elves sprinkle some Christmas Magic around for these two?
The kilt issue becomes a useful tool for Santa because both Jack and Kirsten have their own personal reasons for wanting the kilt, aside from its value for the museum. And as they search for the missing kilt, they begin to find awareness of each other — this is the part where the Christmas Magic might come in! Grab your copy and share in this heart-warming story!
This book is just hilarious, and gets more outrageous as the story goes on. Jack and Kirsten write letters to Santa, asking for a specific kilt that has historical significance, and to meet and fall in love with their “other half”. All the Christmas presents are ready to go, but Santa’s not sure just what to do with these requests – two letters, one kilt. A trip to Scotland, some time to get to know each other, and a little North Pole magic take care of the situation. This was such an easy book to read, grabbing me on the first page. The characters were wonderful, if a bit devious at times.

This was an interesting concept… Just wasn’t really my kind of book. Kristen and Jack were pretty good characters and there were some funny moments in here. Pretty good read.

When Santa recieved letters from a man and a woman both looking for a rare kilt and their true mate, he hatches a plan to bring the couple together. A lovely holiday romance. Can be read as a stand alone, but this series is so wonderful I know you will want to read them all. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I love Caroline Mickelson’s Christmas cozies. This is the third one I’ve read and I enjoyed the first two so much I bought her entire collection for myself for Christmas. “The Christmas Kilt” was a wonderful addition to the world where Santa Claus and his family and elves and reindeer keep things at the North Pole running smoothly. Two lonely adults have each written Santa a letter, requesting an ancient Scottish kilt that is a relic from a battle. Both are museum curators and both have personal reasons that mean they’ll stop at nothing to get the kilt. And little do they know, Santa will stop at nothing to nudge them together and make this a match. Some hilarious scenes, lots of ho ho ho and touches of Scotland as Jack and Kiersten search for the “missing” kilt. This was a Christmas treat!
Jack and Kirsten both asked for a piece of history, and a match to a piece of their hearts for Christmas from Santa
In the special way that romance seems to work for some linked to Santa and the North Pole, romance might be in the making. A bit of confusion might be involved as well.
Another funny and sweet romance, or two, for the gang at the North Pole!
Cute, quick read

This was a whimsical Christmas romance novella. Jack and Kirsten are both in search of an antique kilt. Both want it for different reasons, but neither one wants to be the one to give it up. As these two work closely together to locate the kilt, they get to know each other, realizing that they may have found their other half in each other. Very cute, sweet, little romance.

In The Christmas Kilt, both Jack and Kirsten wish to acquire the McLeod kilt for their respective museums. Each also has a more personal reason to want the kilt. Both of them have written a letter to Santa expressing their desire to meet and fall in love with their as yet unknown ‘other half’. I think you can see where this is going. Travel from Inverness to the North Pole and Christmas Central. Catch up with Santa, Santa’s family and the elves as they work to help Jack and Kirsten find their other halves. I love these books and read them straight through.
