An award-winning novelist’s heartwarming story about family and love lost, found, and finally truly revealed at Christmas.
Christmas takes a very different turn when the guests of honor break up instead of announcing their engagement. Trapped with his family, they learn that love looks different than either imagined. Both in their eighties, Dodie and Wilson Binder celebrateevery Christmas as if it were their last. This year, their grandson Micah is planning to ask his girlfriend, Katie, to marry him so they can celebrate with the whole family. But things go very wrong when she says "no." Now they are stuck. Too many people, too much snow, and too little room should be a recipe for disaster. But sometimes too much is just enough. Especially when it's Christmas.
My thoughts: I'm usually not a huge fan of novella's, since they are short and can lack character development, but I still like to try them since it is nice to have a shorter read that is easy to finish in an evening or two. I am happy that I picked this novella up though, since it did not lack in the character development area! I feel in love the all the characters as they opened their home to a hurting young woman during the holidays. This is a sweet story that has some surprising depth to it. I've read several of Cynthia's stories and, while they are all wonderful, this might just be my favorite yet! I highly recommend it for some holiday reading this year.
I received this book from Worthy in exchange for my honest review.
