A Christmas Promise by Thomas Kinkade and Katherine Spencer
Description
James has a life far away that he’s anxious to get back to. Leigh has a recent past she’s desperate to get away from. And Sam and Jessica are hoping for a future they’ve begun to fear they may never have. But this Christmas in the small town of Cape Light, they’re all in for gifts that will come in unexpected packages.
My Thoughts
This book will naturally have that much more meaning if you’ve already gotten familiar with the people of Cape Light in the four general-season novels that come before this one in the series. Even so, this fifth novel is a full enough story in itself to read as a standalone.
Blessings in Disguise, and More Where This Came From
Granted, it’s got its share of Christmas corny, and a character’s change of heart that feels too thorough, too suddenly. But overall, it’s an easily paced tale of heartache and hope, a touch of suspense, gentle romance, and blessings in disguise.
Quintessential holiday warmth for fans of feel-good reads, right here—and plenty more where this came from! That is, there are sixteen more Cape Light Christmas novels, so you can certainly hang around town for a while.
