Christmas Roses by Amanda CabotMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
CHRISTMAS ROSES by Amanda Cabot is as charming as the title.
The recently widowed Celia Anderson prays for a miracle when her infant daughter develops a violent cough. In walks Mark Williams, a traveling carpenter, looking for a room to rent. When he helps Celia see to Emma’s cough, Celia is sure he’s saved her daughter’s life. And, the fact that he wants to rent a room at a time when money is tight is yet again another answer to prayer.
Mark Williams is on a quest. He is in search of the father that abandoned him as a child, and his last lead has brought him to the town of Easton. With his talented woodworking skills, Mark decides to set up shop in Easton until he finds someone who might know where his father has gone. But, the more time he spends with Celia and Emma, the more he daydreams about what life would be like if he would just settle down and let the past be the past.
CHRISTMAS ROSES is pretty predictable but that doesn’t minimize the enjoyment. This is a simple, old fashion story with warm characters and the backdrop of the holiday season adds to its endearing charm.
