Synopsis
In The Christmas Shoes, young Nathan Andrews was a child who lost his mother to cancer. Now his deepest wish is to become a doctor. When a stranger named Robert gave him the money to buy his mother a pair of shoes for her last Christmas, both Robert and Nathan learned the deepest lessons of love and giving. Now a medical student in his third year, Nathan realizes there are still things to be learned about faith, blessings, and sacrifice. Lessons he will learn from Meghan Sullivan-a young woman born with a hole in her heart that has not kept her from becoming a champion runner. And lessons learned from a young boy named Charlie, who teaches how to live a life of true courage. Together, they will help guide Nathan through the darkest period in his life. The Christmas Blessing is inspiring about hope existing in the darkest places, and love is always the greatest gift of all.
My Thoughts
This is an inspirational story of love and faith focusing on a young doctor named Nathan who becomes friends with Meghan and Charlie who will show him the true meaning in life. Nathan has had dark periods in his life but now he is in medical school and through others, he has learned that while he has had struggles in life others have had it worse yet have continued to live and love life. Nathan will soon find the miracles in life and with that comes love…the love of his life and all the happiness that comes with it. I enjoyed this short read as always Donna VanLiere novels are inspiring and have that comforting feel. You want a hopeful and romantic read this is a good one.
