POST 1 OF 2 FOR WEDNESDAY
CHRISTMAS STOCKING SWEETHEARTS Book 4
Jo-Ann Roberts’ Holly In His Heart

 

Will a dose of Mother Nature’s magic and a bit of divine intervention make a little boy’s Christmas wish come true?

 

What is a boy to do when he is trying to play matchmaker for his father? Seven-year-old Danny Stone is working hard to help his lonely widower father find love again. When a pretty, new teacher moves to Angel Falls, Danny believes she is the perfect choice. But his matchmaking attempts have not been successful until a snowstorm hits and strands Miss Holly at their farm.

Fleeing an ill-fated relationship, Holly Ross accepts an interim teaching position in Angel Falls, Kansas. During the first week, she is knocked down by a stranger, and his rude behavior raises her annoyance when he insists he saved her life…not that she believed she needed saving. When she discovers Jesse Stone is the father of one of her students, she vows to give the man a wide berth. But when Danny leaves behind a scarf belonging to his late mother, she makes a decision that will alter her Christmas plans…and her life.

Since his wife’s passing, Jesse Stone has no interest nor the time for romance. With a herd, a ranch, and a seven-year-old son to raise, the last thing he needs is ungrateful criticism from a woman he saved from being hit by a wagon. His irritation grows when he discovers Holly Ross is the new teacher his son keeps praising…and the feeling is mutual. So, she is the last person he expects to see at his door at the start of a blizzard.
And here’s your “What’s In Your Christmas Stocking” question for this morning.

  9. Since I’m looking after my brother’s dog for a week (though there isn’t much snow in sight):

    He’s got no other place to go
    Yellow snow, yellow snow, yellow snow

  11. Silent night, holy night!

    Sleep in heavenly peace.

    This is the last stanza of “Good King Wenceslas,” which I remember singing in elementary school at Christmas time.

  19. Oh Holy Night, the stars are brightly shining!
    And it makes me want to go look out the window in wonder at the stars God has made!

  20. Let it Snow
    Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
    Okay, I love Christmas songs. It doesn’t matter how many times I here them, I can’t remember the lyrics especially without the music.

  21. “May your trails be straight and wide, I wish you streams and mountainsides, a swift and gentle horse to ride and skies forever blue. May your grass be tall and green, a good old cowboy song to sing, a pretty fall and an early spring, that’s my Christmas gift to you.”
    Charlie Daniels “Cowboy’s Christmas Gift”
