RAISING SPIRITS
THE HOLIDAYS ARE WHEN SPIRITS RUN RAMPANT!
Chris Coffey was a rising R&B country singer and pianist until her parents died tragically at Christmas. Heartbroken and searching for a new direction, she joined the U.S. Army. Now, back from active duty just in time for the holidays, she finds that the family ranch she loves is about to be foreclosed on. Teddy, her loyal family friend, has been trying hard to hold it together.
Back home with her beloved horse, Maverick, and a new puppy named Dexter, Chris finds that the line between the living and the dead is fading. Among the spirits reaching out to her is Jake Tyler, her fallen army buddy, who needs her help to move on. Then Jake’s brother, Joe, signs on as her ranch hand, and her ex, Billy, threatens to finalize the foreclosure. Chris’s heart is pulled in directions she never expected.
With her childhood friends Fast Eddie and Camille rallying the town for a charity drive, and the spirit of her late neighbor Maureen guiding her, Chris has to face her past, her memories of Afghanistan, and the voice she’s been afraid to use. As Christmas Eve gets closer, she’ll find out that the strength of a community, the power of music, and a little help from the other side might be enough to save everything she loves.
Raising Spirits is a heartwarming holiday story about love, loss, second chances, and how family stays with us long after goodbye.
