Christmas from the Heart
Author: Sheila Roberts
Publisher: MIRA
ISBN: 1488056102
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
A Scrooge-like executive clashes with a smalltown charity director in this charming holiday romance by a USA Today–bestselling author. Olivia Berg’s charity, Christmas from the Heart, has helped generations of families in need in Pine River, Washington, but this year might be the end of the road. Hightower Enterprises, one of their biggest donors since way back when Olivia’s grandmother ran the charity, has been taken over by Ebenezer Scrooge the Second, aka CFO Guy Hightower, and he’s declared there will be no more money coming to Christmas from the Heart. Guy is simply being practical. Hightower Enterprises needs to tighten its belt, and when you don’t have money to spare, you don’t have money to share. You’d think even the pushy Olivia Berg could understand that. With charitable donations dwindling, Olivia’s Christmas budget depends on Hightower’s contribution. She’s focused her whole life on helping this small town, even putting her love life on hold to support her mission. When Guy’s Maserati breaks down at the edge of the Cascade foothills, he’s relieved to be rescued by a pretty young woman who drives him to the nearby town of Pine River. Until he realizes his rescuer is none other than Olivia Berg. What’s a Scrooge to do? Plug his nose and eat fruitcake and hope she doesn’t learn his true identity before he can get out of town. What could go wrong? Praise for Christmas from the Heart “The literary equivalent of watching It’s a Wonderful Life with a mug of hot chocolate and a plate of cookies.” —The Booklist Reader “A deftly crafted and delightfully entertaining novel from the pen of an author with a genuine flair for originality and the creation of memorable characters.” —Midwest Book Reviews

Reflections from the Heart
Author: Martha A.Scott
Publisher: Author House
ISBN: 1481755315
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 87
Book Description
This book of poems takes a fresh look at common everyday occurrences. The author, noted for her keen observations of even the simplest things - such as acorns laying scattered across a road - paints a picture in the reader's mind that brings the poems to life. With these vivid images in mind, an emotional chord is struck between the reader and the author as she shares special moments that have touched her heart. The poems range from the light-hearted subjects of the antics of the author's beloved pets, to more reflective topics, as in the need for nature conservation, or thoughts about living life that is true to one's self, and to the needs of others. This book touches the inner core of all of us, and is a fun, and sometimes thought-provoking collection of poems. In a day and age where life is so technologically-oriented and fast-paced, it is nice to know that the art of poetry still exists...where the beauty and play of words can touch people and make them smile.

How to Keep Christmas Well
Author: Charles Dickens
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
A FRESH LOOK ATA TIMELESS CLASSIC A redeeming mixture of old and new, How to Keep Christmas Well refreshes the oft trodden path of Scrooge from miser to mercy by gifting the reader a peek under Dickens' renowned wrapping. Weighed down by the hustle and bustle of the modern Christmas season, it has become harder than ever to keep Christmas well. This, added to the tattering repetition of an old tale of redemption, has caused the jovial flavor of A Christmas Carol to lose its haunting spark. Catchings' reflections and poetry dust off the original 1843 text and present it, with revived ghostliness, to the modern reader. Page by page, the reader is drawn back into the slippers of Scrooge so that they can, again for the first time, learn How to Keep Christmas Well.
