The Christmas Favor is here! 🎄
|
Hey there, Reader, I’m so excited to share that it’s time to snuggle up in your favorite Christmas throw and head back to Willow Creek. The Christmas Favor is here! This story was such a joy to write, and I can’t wait for you to meet Caleb and Vanessa. Vanessa Brooks makes beautiful spaces for a living. But three weeks before Christmas, during her busiest season, her best friend calls in a favor. Now she’s standing in Caleb Walker’s old farmhouse, figuring out how to get it ready for the Willow Creek Christmas Home Tour while keeping her business back in Waco running. It’s a lot to manage, but decorating? That she can handle. Caleb is another matter. He’s a firefighter, a craftsman, and the kind of man who believes one wreath is plenty of Christmas decorating. He only agreed to open his home to help a family in need. He wasn’t expecting his sister’s best friend to arrive with garland, lanterns, and opinions about where everything belongs. And Vanessa wasn’t expecting to enjoying time in Willow Creek so much. If you’ve been waiting for a Christmas romance with familiar Willow Creek faces, everyday faith, a little laughter, and a happily ever after, I’m so glad I finally get to share this one with you. The Christmas Favor is an uplifting, faith-filled Christmas romance with all the Willow Creek Christmas fun, and a happily ever after worth waiting for. Enjoy! Grace + hugs ... and Christmas cheer too! 😁🎄🤗 Melissa Alyse ❤️

Hey there, Reader, After that Christmas Home Tour, Ethel Sue could not get those sweet little gingerbread houses out of her mind. The candy-striped ribbon, the tiny gingerbread people, the cozy little village on the kitchen counter… it all felt like someone had taken Christmas cheer, rolled it in cinnamon sugar, and set it right there for everybody to enjoy. Some might say she got a little carried away. I prefer to say she found a fun new way to share her sparkles of joy with the world! She...
Well, hey there, friend! Okay, okay… maybe I’m asking for myself. 😁🫶 Ethel Sue here. 👋 The Christmas Home Tour just happened, and let me tell you, the houses were just lovely. One had a gingerbread theme. You would’ve loved it! Little gingerbread people in the tree, candy-striped ribbon, and a whole gingerbread village across the kitchen counter. Another house had turquoise ornaments and gold sparkle. I told Glory I was only looking, but by then I was already planning. You see, we’re painting...
Hey there, Reader, Thelma stopped by the other afternoon after she’d finished delivering Meals on Wheels around town. I poured us each a cup of tea, and before long we got to talking about Pastor Mark’s message on the shepherds in Luke 2. “Isn’t it something,” Thelma said, “that of all the people God could’ve told about Jesus being born, He chose a bunch of shepherds?” “Reminds me of David,” I told her. Remember when Samuel came to Jesse’s house looking for the next king? Jesse brought out...
