The Christmas Visitor — Susan Colleen Browne

A lonely cottage in the Irish countryside...a rare snowstorm the night before Christmas Eve...
Recent widow Maeve O'Donoghue doesn't have the heart to celebrate Christmas this year, even though she's caring for her two young granddaughters who long for a proper holiday. All that changes when a mysterious stranger, a young woman, arrives at her home, seeking shelter for the night. In this tender, magical tale, a mystical encounter and a bit of fairy lore helps a grieving family heal, and rediscover the true meaning of Christmas.

Part of the Village of Ballydara series, The Christmas Visitor is the sequel to the touching and heartwarming short story, The Secret Well. The Hopeful Romantic, the 3rd novel of the Village of Ballydara series, is now available! It's about a young Dublin wife and mother, whose satisfying marriage is upended by her yearning for a new life in the country. An old-fashioned love story, The Hopeful Romantic is also a sensitive portrayal of marriage, family, and second chances.
