His Christmas Angel
Matchmakers come in all different forms.
Phillip McLean has been entrusted with the care of a family heirloom: a Christmas tree-topping angel ornament made by his grandmother long before he was born. When disaster strikes—the poor angel is stained by coffee—Phillip calls upon Grace, his best friend's girlfriend, to help fix it before Granny finds out.
But that's not the end of it. Every time Phillip turns around, it seems, something else is happening to the angel. This ornament that was supposed to be a blessing has become a curse—except that it keeps sending him to Grace….
Meanwhile, Grace's emotions are surging. She's liked Phillip for years, and now, seeing him so often, she's completely infatuated with him. Every time the angel comes back for repair, she gets a feeling like she's never had before.
As Grace mends the crocheted angel, will her heart and Phillip's be knitted together?

1.5 -- The accidents could easily have been avoided, and I got tired of them. The men didn't seem manly enough in their thoughts and actions; it's easy to tell that a woman wrote it.
