BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber celebrates the most wonderful time of the year in this heartwarming Christmas novel of romance, hope, and the comforts of home—coming soon as a Hallmark Channel original movie!
Harry Mills is a guardian angel on a mission: help twenty-four-year-old Addie Folsom get her life back on track—and, if the right moment strikes, help her find love. Posing as a teacher at a local college in Tacoma, Washington, Harry is up to the task, but not even he can predict the surprises that lay in store.
After trying to make it on her own, Addie has returned home to Tacoma for the holidays, but this time she plans to stay for good, enrolling in the local community college to earn her degree. What she doesn’t plan to do is run into Erich Simmons.
Addie and her next-door neighbor, Erich, are like night and day. Growing up, he was popular and outgoing while she was rebellious and headstrong, and he never missed an opportunity to tease her. Now she intends to avoid him entirely, yet when they’re suddenly forced to spend Christmas together, Addie braces for trouble.
Perhaps it’s the spirit of the season or the magic of mistletoe, but Addie and Erich soon find they have more in common than they thought—and that two people who seem so wrong for each other may actually be just right. With a little prompting from a certain angelic teacher, the two are in for a holiday miracle they’ll never forget.
REVIEW:
This was my first Debbie Macomber book and I really enjoyed it. Of course I had to read it, it took place in my home town! This was a really fast read, which I enjoyed. The Christmas theme was perfect for this story. I liked that there were actually two stories happening at the same time. Harry was having a hard time adjusting to being an angel in a human body, and the predicaments he found himself in were downright hilarious. That storyline allowed for the subtle love story happening between a very grumpy Erich and hopeful Addie. There also was not a whole lot of drama between the two, just some tension that needed to get worked out – which was a welcome relief. I really enjoyed this story and can’t wait for the movie to come out!

I’m glad you enjoyed this! I almost requested it from NG, but I am so swamped with books right now, it will be a miracle if I get through them all.
