Christmas Reflections

by Ginger Solomon

Marisol Jones loves God, kids, and baking. Her job at the local bakery keeps her culinary talents satisfied. The church she attends draws her closer to God and encourages her to keep up with her own quiet time. And well, two out of three isn’t bad. She’d love to have kids of her own, but most men can’t see past her scars.
Garth Simmons loves God and his daughter. He works to provide everything she needs. When she starts asking for a mommy, he does what any loving father would he sets out to find one. Except none of his dates measure up to his neighbor. Marisol has gotten under his skin, and she didn’t even try. If anything, she doesn’t understand how beautiful she really is.
But he aims to show her.

Had to DNF this one. I was enjoying the characters' honesty at the beginning, then pretty much wanted to shake Garth for a certain decision, but when he started talking about how intimacy with his (now deceased) wife had never stirred up the physical passion he felt for Marisol, my mind was definitely getting pictures it didn't need to have. :(

This book is a very loving and movable book. It was a short story but very good. Marisol was a baker. She was by herself and she was lonely. Her neighbor Garth is raising his daughter and working. He decides to start dating again since his daughter says she wants a mommy. I recommend this book.

Sweet

I found this book to be a very moving and touching romance. It is only a short story but it packs a lot into it. I shed a few tears at the happy ending.

She’s let her scars keep her from relationships but he’s not going to let her get away. They have a few misunderstandings but manage to figure out that they love each other.

Marisol loves her job as a baker, but her life is lonely aside from that. Garth is busy raising his daughter and working and decides he needs to start dating since his daughter wants a mommy. An enjoyable story that keeps moving and deals with acceptance as well as healing.
