How do you do it, Ms. Springer? You build such beautiful relationships into warm romantic stories . . . again and again. I loved Jack and Evie and all of the other characters, and I loved this story.

God places the solitary in family. Second chances, forgiveness, childlike wonder, family, God's goodness - all the things that make life wonderful and an adventure. Kathryn captures those things in this story. As always, I thoroughly enjoyed Kathryn's writing and I hate to come to an end of series.

"A perfect blend of holiday and romance embellished with the sweet spark of hope. Christmas isn't just mentioned -- it's part of the setting! So often a Christmas story doesn't really feature the season -- it's more of an afterthought lurking in the background so I really appreciate the way the seasonal aspects enrich Ellery and Carter's love story."
