Christmas Countdown 42 Reading Days Remaining
This week we have Deborah Garner sharing her new novel, Mistletoe at Moonglow, a heartwarming story sure to kickstart your Christmas spirit.
A Christmas novella with cookie recipes included!
Excerpt
Mist set to work, weaving tapestries of eucalyptus and pinecones, bursts of floral colors and dry branches, ribbons and bark. As she created, she hummed Christmas melodies she’d known since childhood, the music of memories. Hours flew by. In the end, a magnificent arrangement spanned the center of the buffet, with miniature renditions of the same on each table.
“Mighty fine.”
Mist turned to see Clive standing in the doorway, nodding his head with approval. She smiled. It was a far cry from the western art he displayed in his gallery, but he was clearly impressed. That was the thing about holiday decorations. People’s hearts could bond over them.
“Good afternoon, Clive. What brings you around today? Wouldn’t be a certain lady we both know?” His face reddened like a schoolboy caught kissing a pretty girl under the bleachers.
“You can tease me all you want, young lady,” Clive said. “But I’m here to replace a bulb in that entryway chandelier before the cookie exchange this afternoon. I don’t want Betty climbing up a ladder. Her hip’s been bothering her lately. She won’t say so, but I see the way she runs her hand over it when she’s been working too much.”
“I’ve seen her do that, too. I’m glad you’re here to help her.”
“Well, if not me, you’ll be climbing those ladders, too. And we don’t want that.”
“That’s sweet of you to worry about me, but I’m strong and don’t mind climbing ladders.”
