Stay For Christmas: A Son Is Given — Victoria Bylin

Denver, Colorado 1865. Katherine Merritt is taking her daughter and going back to Philadelphia, to her parents' home. Her husband of ten years, Reverend William Merritt will not be accompanying them, for Katherine can neither forget nor forgive him! His endless drinking has seen to that! Sadly, William had caused the death of their infant son. To remember that night hurt and Katherine could and would never trust him again. It seemed the lure of a whiskey bottle was too great a temptation and William was too unsteady a man.
