Synopsis
Harry Mills is a guardian
angel on a mission: help twenty-four-year-old Addie Folsom get her life back on
track—and, if the right moment strikes, help her find love. Posing as a teacher
at a local college in Tacoma, Washington, Harry is up to the task, but not even
he can predict the surprises that lay in store.
After trying to make it on
her own, Addie has returned home to Tacoma for the holidays, but this time she
plans to stay for good, enrolling in the local community college to earn her
degree. What she doesn’t plan to do is run into Erich Simmons.
Addie and her next-door
neighbor, Erich, are like night and day. Growing up, he was popular and
outgoing while she was rebellious and headstrong, and he never missed an
opportunity to tease her. Now she intends to avoid him entirely, yet when
they’re suddenly forced to spend Christmas together, Addie braces for trouble.
Perhaps it’s the spirit of
the season or the magic of mistletoe, but Addie and Erich soon find they have
more in common than they thought—and that two people who seem so wrong for each
other may actually be just right. With a little prompting from a certain
angelic teacher, the two are in for a holiday miracle they’ll never forget.
My Thoughts
Well I had
some very high hopes for this one and well frankly it just fell flat. Considering
I’ve read the Mrs. Miracle books and loved the Hallmark movies I was just
expecting more than what this was. I just couldn’t connect with the characters
or the plot for that matter. I liked the idea of the plot but there was so many
characters and at times I got confused, which I never do. While it isn’t all
that bad it just isn’t what I’ve come to expect when it comes to Debbie
Macomber’s books. However I see this one will also be a movie on the Hallmark
channel tomorrow night and I will check it out. Maybe I’ll like the movie more
than the book.
