A quick and uplifting Christmas read! It reminded me of a Hallmark movie 😍
This is the second book in the Red Gloves Series and I am really enjoying them. Megan is a lady who has lost her belief in true love. She is climbing the corporate ladder and finding no time for her son Jordan. Then one day Jordan writes a letter to God and asks his Mom to mail it. She reads it and realizes how much Jordan needs a Dad and how lonely he is. So. .. she connects with a Manhattan Children's Organization which connects children who need an adult to connect with and do things together. Casey Cummins is trying to get over the tragic loss of his wife and child. He decides working with this Children's Organization might help fill the void in his life. So you can see where this is leading, but the journey there is very precious show more and heartwarming. You feel the loss of each of these families and hope that the miracle of love will bring them together. I read this book in one evening because one, it is a short story, but two it was hard to put down once I started it. It was a very tender story with a very happy ending. show less
Heartwarming Christmas story with joy coming out of tragedy... Really well written too.
Goodreads told me I read this book in 2016, but I have absolutely no memory of it. I (apparently) rated it 3 stars then, and that's what I rated it again this time. Not a bad story. Quick and enjoyable. The "twist" could have used a better execution though.
I enjoyed this cute little story.
