This is the second book in a series about The Cisco Family. [No Place Like Home] was the first book in the series. The "Trips" are now married and having some marital problems. Growing up they always counted on each other and didn't really have any outside friends, this has shown up later in life as their inability to trust or count on others. Their Grandmother, Loretta "Cisco", has just had her home demolished by a tornado, as have many others in their little town. As the "trips" come to grips with the need to let others in & learn to trust, "Cisco" has to learn to let go of the past and embrace the future...whatever it holds. (

A New Holiday Classic!

This heartwarming and hilarious New York Times bestseller from Fern Michaels, the acclaimed author of Pretty Woman and Crown Jewel, will delight and inspire readers this and every holiday season.

Right before Thanksgiving, a freak tornado drops down into the town of Larkspur in Pennsylvania's Allegheny Mountains and destroys the house where matriarch and candy magnate Loretta Cisco has lived for fifty years. Thanks for nothing, Mother Nature! As if that's not enough, Cisco sees that her beloved triplet grandchildren, Hannah, Sara, and Sam -- all newlyweds -- are having marital problems and yet they refuse to tell her what's going on. So as Cisco's neighbors help to rebuild her home in time for the holidays, she vows to work a miracle that will get her family back on track. Can she do it? Even without a roof over her head?

Join the rambunctious Cisco clan, where passions, tempers, and humor run high -- and the warm-hearted citizens of Larkspur -- for a holiday celebration full of surprises, reunions, good old-fashioned family therapy, and maybe even a wedding!
