Holly's Gift

Small-Town Christmas Wishes Series, Book 5

By: Josie Riviera

Narrated by: Allyson Voller

Welcome to Snowflake, Colorado - a small town where wishes come true!

When six old high school friends receive a letter that their fellow friend Charity Hart wrote before she passed away, their lives take an unexpected turn. She leaves them each a check for $1,500 and asks them to grant a wish - a secret wish - for someone else by Christmas. It sounds simple, but the friends soon discover that it isn’t as easy as it seems!

With the clock ticking, will they make it happen in time? Join Mia, Caro, Nate, Sara, Holly, and Taye on their journey to make a wish come true and find love along the way.

Holly’s Gift

Miracles don’t always come easy. Sometimes it takes a secret wish to light an angel’s way.

When Holly steps into a homeless shelter looking for an MIA piano student, she notices a distinct lack of Christmas cheer because a handsome building inspector is forcing the shelter to temporarily close down.

Holly knows bad guys - she was married to one. Yet, when the man asks her out, she finds herself agreeing with an absolute yes.

Tim Stewart doesn’t hold his breath waiting for God to answer prayers. He went from homeless desperation to television stardom to relative obscurity while God stayed silent. But when Holly barrels into his life, her steady faith sparks hope for a dream of his own. Even if it means praying for a Christmas miracle, one last time.

Remembered sadness is the stepping stone to tomorrow’s joy.

I really, really loved this story

This is an exceptional story of helping those less fortunate. Even though $1500 isn't enough to fix the electrical problems at a homeless shelter, Holly finds a way to raise more money to meet the need. Then that need is met again by another person so the first money can do even more. I love this statement about the book: "Remembered sadness is the stepping stone to tomorrow's joy"- something I need to remember for my own life. This story I will enjoy listening to again & again. Would give it 10 stars. I received a free audible from the author. This is my voluntary review.

Charming and Sweet

I loved this inspirational Christmas story. The characters were witty and real and so much fun. The narrator was great and I look forward to reading and listening to more of this author's work in the future.

love!

So far I have loved everything thar I have listened to and read by this author! this is no exception! I love the narrator as well!

Inspirational Christmas

This is a wonderful story about what Christmas should be about. Holly is trying to help one of her piano students and Tim is trying to do his job which will leave a lot of people in a hard place over the holidays. When Holly and Tim collide they have no idea how their paths will intertwine or where that will lead them. Josie has written another delightful book, as always. No inappropriate language or content, as always.

The narrator does a wonderful job. Always a plus for listening to an audio book.

I requested this audio book from the author and am voluntarily leaving this review.
