CHRISTMAS BOOK: Christmas Wreath by Angela Ford

  

My Most Memorable Christmas Activity

by Angela Ford                                                    

My most memorable Christmas activity began when my daughter turned three years old and I took her to the Nutcracker. My little ballerina wanted to see 'real ballerinas' - her exact words. I remember asking her after the show if it had been everything magical she'd expected. She said 'yes but they didn't talk'. For Christmas that year I got her a VHS of Barbie Nutcracker. She still has it fourteen years later! 



And yes, for the past fourteen years we have seen the ballet every Christmas season. A treasured tradition we continue!

My Christmas Romance this year is called The Christmas Wreath. A sweet love story enjoyable for all ages. Love may hide but it's never lost.The magic of Christmas unites two hearts together forever.

My Review of Christmas Owl:

The Christmas Owl by Viv Drewa is an inspiring story of a soldier at ChristmasTime and an owl. It showcases the sacrifices made not only of our soldiers, but of their entire families.  This story also gives the reader a taste of normal American  family life in the 1940s, coupled with a paranormal owl twist.   A well-written, touching story of a very special Christmas for one American family. Refreshingly different.

CHRISTMAS BOOK: I Need Christmas by Carol Ann Kauffman

 

 

After a depressing year of sadness, loneliness, and self-doubt, 

successful civil engineer and former All-American basketball star 

Elizabeth (Betsy) Curry returns home to Oakville, Ohio, for the 

Christmas holidays a depressed and broken women. 

Reeling from her bitter divorce from the handsome, charming, but 

morally-bankrupt Tommy DeMalio, her college sweetheart and first 

big love who left her after two years of what she thought was a 

good marriage for a stripper he met at an office bachelor party for 

her co-worker, Betsy feels lost and empty. 

Not exactly anticipating the happy holiday with her family and their 

multitude of joyful Christmas customs and long-time storybook-like 

traditions, she knows she needs them in order to heal. 

Once comfortable at home and feeling somewhat better about 

herself, Tommy shows up and claims he wants a reconciliation, 

throwing her back into the self-destructive cycle of doubt, hostility, 

and suspision she is trying so hard to escape.

She discovers her father has set her up with his protégé at work, 

the tall, handsome, athletic red-haired Patrick, who, try as hard as 

she can, she can’t find a single thing she doesn’t like about him.

So, what’s the problem? Betsy feels it’s too soon for her to love 

again. How can she love anyone again when she doesn’t like 

herself or what she’s become since the break-up. Also, she fears 

she will hurt the sweet, gentle Patrick.

Will the love, joy, and goodwill of the holiday season coupled with 

the many long-time holiday customs and Curry family traditions 

help Betsy to find herself again? Will she be strong enough to lift 

herself out of her self-induced prison so that she can take another 

chance on love ? 

What others are saying about I Need Christmas:

5.0 out of 5 starsAnother nice fireside read

December 8, 2015

“I Need Christmas” is book two of the “Oakville Family Christmas” anthology and keeps to the spirit of the series 

nicely. Being surrounded by family isn’t always the picture of a Norma Rockwell painting. Far too often it’s the exact 

opposite. But in Betsy Curry’s case it could not be more the reality. Betsy is recovering from a marriage that was at

 best a nice arrangement for her husband, who by the way, abruptly returns wanting another try (with ulterior motives).

 Having been done with him and comfortably surrounded by a loving family, Betsy is having none of his nonsense. 

Enter mystery man, Patrick. What will happen next? Find out by getting your copy of “I Need Christmas.”

5.0 out of 5 starsSweet Read!

January 22, 2016

This was a very sweet and heartwarming story. It's short, and a wonderful story to read just before you go to sleep, 

as it's just the right length and will give you warm and fuzzy dreams. I thoroughly enjoyed it and want to read more

4.0 out of 5 starsSet in Great Midwest, Ohio

I just finished your book, "I Need Christmas," and found this to be a heartwarming story of family and traditions.

And a new Beau? Read this wonderful short story and find out!

4.0 out of 5 stars... Christmas at the Curry house and things couldn't be better, unless you're Betsy Curry

December 23, 2015

It's Christmas at the Curry house and things couldn't be better, unless you're Betsy Curry. Her no-good husband 

dumped her for a stripper and she hasn't gotten over the pain of his betrayal. Just as she settles into the comfort 

and traditions of her family and starts a potential romance with a guy her parents tried to hook her up with sets in, 

her ex shows up looking for reconciliation and then to start trouble. This is a really good story and I enjoyed getting 

to know some of the other characters that were mentioned in the other books of this series.

5.0 out of 5 starsHoping for a Christmas miracle

December 19, 2015

This is a story set in Great Midwest and brings forth all the beautiful traditions of Christmas - the Christmas tree, 

the party, family and holidays. Betsy, who was recently divorced, is hoping Christmas would bring some normality 

to her life and is hoping the magic of the season would rub on her somehow. When she meets Patrick, things 

change. Will Betsy get her own Christmas miracle? Read this sweet story to find out!

4.0 out of 5 starsHeartwarming Anytime

January 7, 2016

Betsy Curry needs all the comfort and security of being with her family this Christmas after she divorced her cheating 

husband. What she's not sure she needs is their help in finding a boyfriend! this story is a realistic peek into the home 

of a loving family during the days leading up to Christmas. Kaufman's knack for heartwarming storytelling shines 

through.

This book is part of a series written for Books To Go Now. All three books follow the Curry Family at Christmas, but each is

told through a different family member's point of view. It was such an experience to write! I hope you will love reading it

as we did writing it.
