ABOUT THIS BOOK
Seven Christmases have passed since Sonia Pettit last heard from her daughter Jody. Since Jody’s departure, Sonia’s world has been turned upside down. Her husband has died of a broken heart, and her son, bitter over his sister’s destructive actions, has become rebellious.
Her greatest desire is to have her family together at Christmas, but after what Jody has put them all through, can Sonia truly forgive her daughter?
Jody Pettit O’Dair ran away to experience a life of adventure and excitement, but since her departure, her world has been turned upside down. She’s been abandoned by the man she met and married, lost her job, and is unable to care for her two children. With nowhere else to turn, this prodigal daughter begins the long journey home and prays she will be welcomed after walking away so long ago.
Will Jody find forgiveness in the arms of her family as easily as she received it from God?
MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK
Wow, this is a really sweet story to read during the Christmas Holiday Season! This family rec’d a most precious Christmas present! But would everyone accept the prodigal daughter home after being gone so long? You would think so, but then when bitterness takes over, sometimes it causes a lot of friction.
This is my first book by MaryAnn Diorio and I will be looking for more in the future. She created characters that were so realistic I felt they were like my own friends, with a plot that gets more intense and interesting as the story unfolds.
The only negative thing about this book is that it is just too short! I highly recommend this short, fast pace Christmas story that will warm your heart during the Holidays.
