Celia Anderson’s husband has died, leaving her alone with a
deathly ill daughter. She’s terrified her daughter is going to die when a
wanderer drifts into town. Mark Williams is looking for his deadbeat dad who
abandoned him as a boy. The trail leads
into Easton , Wyoming territory, and he finds a place at
Celia’s boarding house, arriving just in time to save Emma’s life.
Mark’s trail grows cold in Easton . No one knows or remembers his dad and
he doesn’t have a lead anywhere else. The parson is encouraging Mark to move on
and leave Celia alone, but Mark is comfortable at Celia’s boarding house and
plans to stay for the winter.
Two men are courting Celia, but Celia vows never to marry a
man unless he’s willing to give her Christmas roses. A tall order for Wyoming territory where
roses aren’t available in the winter. Will both Celia and Mark realize their
dreams this Christmas?
CHRISTMAS ROSES is a charming Christmas story by acclaimed
author Amanda Cabot. I love Christmas
stories and thoroughly enjoyed this one. It is a easy read, but I took it
slowly, so it would last several days, savoring each page before moving on.
Mark is a dear, and there’s more to this wanderer than meets
the eye. And Celia is a struggling widow with a deathly ill child, needy one
moment and very capable the next. The type of woman that all men want to marry.
Don’t miss CHRISTMAS ROSES. Beautifully
done in hard back, perfect for gift giving. $14.99. 172 pages.
