Product Description
It's the week before Christmas, and antiques dealer Weezie Foley is in a frenzy to garnish her shop for the Savannah historical district decorating contest, which she intends to win. Weezie is ready to shoot herself with her glue gun by the time she's done, but the results are stunning. She's certainly one-upped the owners of the trendy boutique around the corner, but suddenly things start to go missing from her display, and there seems to be a mysterious midnight visitor to her shop. Still, Weezie has high hopes for the holiday—maybe in the form of an engagement ring from her chef boyfriend. But Daniel, always moody at the holidays, seems more distant than usual. Throw in Weezie's decidedly odd family, a 1950s Christmas tree pin, and even a little help from the King himself (Elvis, that is), and maybe there will be a pocketful of miracles for Weezie this Christmas Eve. Back by popular demand, this new edition of the holiday classic includes an essay by the author, tips for "keeping the happy in holidays," additional recipes, and more.

I love Weezie and her adventures! June 2, 2008
Colleen Laughlin (Florida)
Great book and an easy read! I love the story of Weezie and Daniel. The only thing I would have liked is more info on Bebe and Harry, but maybe in her next book??? I would love another book with all four of these characters (and Manny & Cookie - what a hoot!).

Wonderful holiday story with just the right touch of sentiment and no gooiness. A great read anytime of the year.
Charming, warm, fun! January 12, 2008

I just read this book for the second time, something I do fairly rarely, so it says a lot. I really love it, it's so charming and heartwarming. Weezie is a character that the author has in a few other of her books and I've really enjoyed them, as well (Savannah Blues - outstanding, and Savannah Breeze - pretty good). I would highly recommend this if you're looking for something cozy to cuddle up with. I will say that it has more 'meat' in the story than some of those Christmas book novellas that are out there, and for that, I am grateful.
Fun and Whimsical! January 1, 2008

Mary Kay Andrews is one of my favorite authors. I had purchased this book when it was first released last year, but waited to read it over the holidays and am I glad I did!!! I just LOVE her main character Weezie (from Savannah Blues) and am so glad she brought her back in this book. I love antiquing also, so to read about her adventures on her "junking" travels is such fun! An unexpected twist in the book was a pleasant surprise and so well done!!! I can't wait to read Deep Dish - hurry and write another one Mary Kay - your books are fabulous and can't come quick enough.

Thank you for an amazing and funny book. It is a wonderfully descriptive story that I couldn't put down and just a few hours later, I put it down wanting more. I can't wait to read more of her books.
