Cole Tanner doesn’t do Christmas. Abandoned as a child on Christmas Eve, he has no use for the holiday season. When his best friend’s widow arrives in Glacier Creek, Montana, determined to give her small daughter the fairy-tale Christmas she’s dreaming of, Cole is prepared to dislike her. He isn’t prepared for Joy and her daughter to insinuate their way into his life—and his heart. But when … heart. But when tragedy strikes, he needs a Christmas miracle to fulfill the one wish he never knew he wanted.
Joy Holliday believes in miracles.
She sees hummingbirds everywhere, and believes they are tiny messengers from Heaven. Despite losing her husband four years ago, she is determined not to dwell on the past, but to look to the future. Her entire world revolves around taking care of her daughter, Piper, and ensuring she has a magical Christmas. In Glacier Creek she finds Cole, a man still smarting from the wounds of his past, determined to keep happiness at arms’ length. Can she save Christmas and show him the promise of a future with her?

wonderful book – Karen Foley is an exceptional author – I can’t wait to read more of her books
Such a sweet, and heart warming Christmas story. Easy read, and brought a few tears to my eyes!
I’ve read stories a lot like this one (best friend who died and left a wife and child) but this author gave it a new breath of fresh air
I enjoyed reading this book. It has good strong characters.
Did not know that there is a species of hummingbirds that would survive winter. Book was pretty predictable.
The first time I’ve read anything from this author and I really appreciate how she stayed focused on the main characters, instead of introducing people and information that have nothing to do with the story. That let me get really involved with the personalities and feelings they evoked. Yes, it is a feel-good Christmas story, but believable and heart-warming. I highly recommend it and am looking forward to reading more of this author’s work.
Really enjoyed the story line of the book.
Going back to her husband’s home town,visiting family and friends.
Okay Christmas romance. Took a while for the hummingbirds to appear in the story. All ended happily.
It was ok.
Very good Christmas story. Enjoyed.
I really enjoyed this book, light reading happy ending .
Sweet story
This is one of the loveliest Christmas stories I’ve ever read and I have 160 Christmas books on my Kindle alone. Don’t let this Christmas go by without reading this one.
Sweet Christmas story
I loved it
What a wonderful story! The characters are so realistic! A truly touching story that had me in tears several times and smiling other times.
It made me smile and made believe once again that Christmas is indeed a blessed season.
Great read during the Christmas season.
A book for all to read.
I will never see a humming bird again that I don’t think of this book. I guess we all look for symbols from our departed love ones and this book used humming birds to lead the way.
