Heavenly Peace — Lesley Ann McDaniel

Christmas is just around the corner, but Valerie Seldon is too stressed to enjoy it. As a widowed mom to a four-year-old boy, Valerie can't keep up. Between providing for her son and her aging father, plus worrying about the mounting bills and the potential loss of her apartment, there's no room to even think about Christmas. But when her son convinces her to pick a tag off a Giving Tree, a request for a miracle might be just what she needs to restore her joy. Jake Barnett loves his job at Impact Ministries, but his long hours have turned him into a social recluse. It's been so long since he's been interested in anybody that he doesn't even know what qualities to look for anymore. But when a beautiful woman walks into the coffee place where his Giving Tree is located, he can tell there's something special about her. Could the tag her son picks off the tree be the key that opens the door to his heart? Holiday Hearts…seasons of love.
