Last year, I found Remembering Christmas by Dan Walsh on Amazon. The book was free and I wasn't sure if it was something I'd like or not. But, it was free so I thought I'd give it a try.
I LOVE this book! I originally wrote about this book last year, which you can find here.
The book description, as taken from amazon.com:
Rick Denton lives his life on his terms. He works hard, plays
hard, and answers to no one. So when his mother calls begging him to
come home after his stepfather has an aneurysm, Rick is more than a
little reluctant. What was supposed to be just a couple days helping out
at the family bookstore turns into weeks of cashing out old ladies and
dealing with the homeless guy who keeps hanging around the store. The
one bright spot is the lovely and intriguing young woman who works at
his side each day.
As Christmas nears, Rick's old life beckons,
the hurts from his past loom large, and the decisions he makes will
determine more than just where he spends Christmas Eve.
While this is a Christian book, it is a beautiful story and one I couldn't put down. It's a reminder of the holiday spirit and what's really important in life. This is the perfect book to read during the holiday season and I highly recommend it. This book has made it into my pre-Christmas reading rotation. A perfect reminder of what the holidays are really about.
