I will be reading more f this author. ( ) A good story about a woman with a troubled past who is trying again at making herself a special Christmas that she has wanted since she was a homeless child torn from the safe haven of her grandparents love and care by her mentally ill alcoholic mother. She never dreamed on helping her new neighbors cope with their recent loss of their mother/wife. Let alone did she think that they would be able to help her cope with her own issues still haunting her from her past. In all she found help and love that she wasn't able to push and run away from like she had always done in the past. This is an emotional Christmas book about fragile people that had suffered so much in their lives. I like the way the characters change everything and how they find their own hope for a happy Christmas. They show us a great life lesson and encourage us to be strong in front of different situations. Here are some of the quotes I like and would love to share: “When you got nothin’, you’re invisible.” “…talking is the way to heal the things inside you that no one sees.” “It’s hard not to be mad when we’re the ones left behind.” “…things being better when you had someone to share them with.” “…all you have to do to make your dreams come true is love hard enough.” “Being alone is a choice. It’s how we protect ourselves, and it’s how we give up when it feels too hard to keep fighting to belong.” “Sometimes, when there’s nothing anyone else can do, you have to be your own hero.” sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Includes Reader's Guide for book club discussions. Anna DeStefano presents a touching Christmas story about love, loss, and healing--and the joys of coming home. A childhood spent on the streets leaves Mallory Phillips longing for a normal life and a perfect Christmas. Now an elementary school nurse in Chandlerville, Georgia, Mallory's dream to blend into the picturesque community isn't working out. She's once more living a loner's existence. Then an emotionally fragile seven-year-old appears in her living room in the middle of the night, and Mallory's isolated world is turned upside down. This is Polly Lombard's first Christmas without her mother, and she won't utter a word to anyone--except Mallory. She believes Mallory holds the key to helping her father overcome his sadness. Despite Pete Lombard's lingering grief over his wife's death and concern for his daughter, his resistance to their mysterious neighbor crumbles as he spends more time with Mallory and falls for her amazing heart. But when her past returns to haunt her, is Mallory strong enough to keep the Lombard family in her life? And can the spirit of Christmas heal these broken souls and bring them all the joyous, loving holiday they deserve? No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
