On the Way to Christmas

 


On the Way to Christmas, three novellas set between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

A Christmas Do-Over by Sheila Roberts brings Darby back to her home town. She has resisted going back because she was once the mean bad girl and didn't want to face eating humble pie. Her greatest regret was alienating her sister and best friend Greg. But life has changed her, and she must face the consequences of her actions and try to make them right.

Dashing Through the Snow by Melissa Ferguson finds Willow dumped by her boyfriend on the eve of a romantic cross country train trip. Certain he would propose, she decides to take the trip  on The Christmas Express solo. Ferguson usually writes with much humor and banting back and forth with her characters. I was a little disappointed as this story felt a little flat. 

A Perfectly Splendid Christmas by Amy Clipston was a delightful story. Kacey returns home to help her sister run her bakery, as her BIL lost his job and is having difficulty finding another one. Kacey is drawn to her former classmate Drew. But do they have too many differences to make a relationship work?

To Tame a Cowboy

 

Jody Hedlund continues the story of the McQuaid family in the Colorado Cowboys series. 

Brody's past haunts him. He is broken and hurting. Savannah is a sweet kind hearted girl, seeking to find her place. She runs from her families ranch, desiring to be a veterinarian. What she finds is Brody's brokenness. Brody and Savannah's characters grow beautifully.

This story is about finding God's forgiveness and healing. A tender story to wrap around your heart. I read Wyatt's story, but this one can be read as a stand alone.
