The Christmas Heirloom: Four Holiday Novellas of Love Through the Generations

As someone who is sentimental when it comes to family heirlooms, I adored this novella collection. Each of the stories is tied together by this heirloom brooch and it was wonderful to watch it make its way through the generations. Kristi Ann Hunter's Sarah Gooding was entertaining (quite literally as she was playing the piano in the opening scene) from page one. Karen Witemeyer's Ruth Albright proved to be a shrewd business woman who was determined to make her way on her own terms. Sarah Loudin Thomas' Fleeta Brady was so unconventional that I couldn't help but love her! And Becky Wade's Maddie Winslow is the perfect character to tide those of us over who are anxiously awaiting the next story in the Bradford Sisters collection. Maddie had been introduced in the novels so it was a delight to see her story play out.
