"Wonderful Christmas Story"

This is a free download at Kathy's site for donations to the Humane Society in honor of her kitty who died.

This is without a doubt one of the sweetest renditions of A Christmas Carol I've ever read. I thoroughly enjoyed each and every page.

Daphne is one of the most irreverent angels there ever is. She curses, she drinks, she argues about every little thing! She insists that her death is a big mistake and Leonard from the Angelic Council agrees but there's not much choice. What's done is done. The Angelic Council had no way of knowing she'd step in front of that Lieutenant Danvers in Vietnam and save his life at the cost of hers. Now the Angelic Council has to figure out what to do about it.

They finally decide to send Daphne back on Christmas Eve to Nathaniel Danvers, son of the very lieutenant whose life she saved. She has to show him the error of his ways. He's going to fire his own cousin from the company among other things. Surely there's a heart in there somewhere. It's up to Daphne to try to find it and melt that heart of ice!

The Angelic Council has no way of predicting that Daphne and Nat will fall in love. Now they really have a situation on their hands. How in the world will they ever resolve this one?

Kathy Carmichael knows the secret to writing sweet romances. Her books are such a joy to read. I avidly look forward to her next book.
