Chapter One
“Deborah Morris’s seven decades on God’s earth had taught her many lessons, but never one so certain as this: everything can be improved with a cup of peppermint hot cocoa.”

•Synopsis•

This charming, gift-sized book, filled with inspiring, uplifting, and thought-provoking Christmas stories, is the perfect way to put you in the Christmas spirit throughout the season. 

When Sadie Wingate finds herself face-to-face with a person she’d almost given up hope of ever reconnecting with again, she finds that forgiveness might be the greatest gift of all. 

Gloria Quincy, a widowed baker rebuilding her life in a new town, finds unexpected joy—and a second chance at belonging—when the holiday baking contest she sponsors leads to new friendships and hope. 

When her holiday plans fall through, Ella Hart, a disappointed bookstore owner, finds meaning—and a touch of mystery—when her path crosses with a stranger just passing through town. 

Deborah Morris finds a decades-old wish inside a Christmas card tucked into the market’s donation box and embarks on a mission to fulfill it. 

Each novella is written by a best-loved Guidepost author, Amy Clipston, Tia McCollors, Shaen Layle, and Heidi Chiavaroli.
