Product Description Christmas comes again to the little town of Cape Light. Molly Willoughby-Harding has a beautiful home, a husband, family, and friends, and a blossoming new business-so why is she unhappy? Just as her life is starting to take off, she's pregnant again-and she's going to have to confront her previous notions of what she truly needs to be happy, in order to recapture that elusive Christmas spirit... Meanwhile, Miranda Potter has found an injured man who's lost his memory. As she nurses him back to health an unexpected attraction develops. Can Miranda let uncertainty back into her life just as things finally start making sense? And when Reverend Ben finds a wooden angel statue, word spreads that it holds miraculous powers, turning his peaceful church into a tourist attraction-and making it seem more of a burden then a blessing. But what he discovers is that he's given the people of Cape Light the best Christmas gift of all.

Perfect Cover November 12, 2008 avid reader (fl United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Kinkade's heart-warming art truly reflects the essence of this story or rather stories, since there are several interwoven in the novel. Some might find the book a tad on the saccarine side, but no one wants to read depressing books over Christmas, and there is much that is uplifting in this one. For another inspirational seasonal series, try In the Dead of Winter: Ivy Towers Mystery Series #1 (Heartsong Presents Mysteries #3). For a Christmas murder mystery set in England, which also reflects the holiday spirit, check out Christmas is Murder: A Rex Graves Mystery (Rex Graves Mysteries).
A Christmas Visitor October 30, 2008 Judy Lynn Senn (Seattle WA USA) This was a great book Kept my interest. Couldn't put it down. Took me a day to read it.
A Christmas Visitor October 30, 2008 Aikaterina Hagood (Murfreesboro, TN)
I loved the book and highly recommend it to people who want to live a true Christmas atmosphere, away from the dirty and ugly world.... It is so refreshing to be able to read a book which can be interesting, alive and real without all the cussing and ugliness that our world mostly offers today. Very good and looking forward to the next one.
One aspect bothered me here.... October 24, 2008 P. Wiggins I love these Cape Light Novels, but the presence of this angel in the form of a figurine bothered me a bit in this one. The fact that the story seemed to claim that it had a "healing" presence to it is what bothered me. I believe in miracles and I believe in angels, but it being in this form almost smacked of idolatry of an object to me. The rest of the story I enjoyed. That's why I would have to give it only a one star.
Wish it were in Large Print October 9, 2008 Mamie Coldwater (San Antonio TX) I have read all of the Cape Light Series, but cannot read this one because it is not in Large Print which I require. I love his books and hope that this comes out in Large Print soon.
