Jason Law is a Pulitzer Prize winning reporter. He had left the sleepy town of Quiet Valley to follow his dream. Now he returned home just before Christmas to finish his unfinished business. He wanted to meet his Girl Friend Faith and find out why she did not wait for him.

What he saw was a surprise to him - Faith with a daughter and a husband who had left. Jason tries to win Faith back but Faith says he was always too good for her.

I, the reader fell in love with both Jason and Faith and wanted them to get together. I had faith and it was Christmas. Will I get my gift of a reunion?
Pulitzer-prizewinning reporter Jason Law returns to his hometown, Quiet Valley, New Hampshire, with the hope of winning back the girl he left behind some ten years ago. But he and Faith had different dreams: he wanted to travel; she wanted lace curtains and a home.

Now Jason returns, a bona fide success in his field, only to find Faith, who promised to wait for him, is married and the mother of a young daughter. Will Jason and Faith find the Christmas miracle that will bring each of them their heart’s true desire?

This quick-read novella, although predictable, is a sweet read that reminds readers that there are still miracles to find and life is always full of surprises.
This a romantic story of the one who got away, or rather, went away... but now has returned.
