| Publisher Description: Seven Christmas stories are gathered here in this volume. The rollicking Riley family is revisited as Chili prepares to play an elf in her school play and big sister Ruby experiences her first romance at fifteen. In Bruce, a family expects a fiberglass camel to complement their church's first living nativity but that's not what they find waiting for them at the depot when they go to pick it up The Christmas Spirit is a holiday ghost story about redemption. In Christmas Wreaths, a young woman who volunteers making and selling wreaths at a farm witnesses a man's abuse and violence toward his middle son. A series of events leads her to discover that her future lies on the same farm with the young man struggling not to lose the land his ancestors have owned for generations. In An Angel in His Pocket, a guitarist, down on his luck, auditions for a dream gig with a renowned Irish band in an upcoming holiday program. He receives a wee bit of help from a tiny, old woman in a brown hat who may just possess some holiday magic. A struggling young family is helped by a kind-hearted, generous, elderly neighbor at Christmas in Christmas Cakes. In The Red Velvet Suit, Santa's son is poised to assume the role of the one and only Santa Claus as his father retires. But first, he needs to order his own red velvet suit. He pays a call at Jack Frost's Tailor Shop where he learns that Jack is missing and Jack's daughter, Crystal, is desperate to find him before Christmas is ruined by the nasty elf who's kidnapped him. As Chris Noel gets ready for his first flight as Santa, he can't stop thinking about Crystal- because every Santa Claus needs a Mrs. Claus. And he needs to help Crystal find her father before the North Pole is nothing but a muddy mess. |
