Gratitude Giveaways Hop!

14 Nov

 

Thanks to I Am A Reader, Not A Writer for hosting the 3rd Annual Gratitude Giveaways Hop! There are over 200 grateful bloggers giving away books and bookish stuff to their readers. To find out more, please click HERE. The hop runs November 15 – 25.

To show my gratitude to all those who stop by my blog, I am giving away a copy of Ace Collins’ novella, The Christmas Star. This is a great book! Just leave me a comment and you will be entered. Good Luck!

Robert Reed gave his life for his country in the early days of World War II. His sacrificed was honored when his widow and son were presented with the Congressional Medal of Honor. Each Christmas the final decoration Madge Reed hangs on the family’s tree is that medal. Rather than being a symbol of honor for young Jimmy Reed that shining star represents loss, pain, and suffering.

Yet a letter delivered by one of Robert’s fellow soldiers and a mystery posed in that letter put a father’s sacrifice and faith into perspective and bring new meaning to not just the star hanging on the Christmas tree but the events of the very first Christmas. Then, when least expected, a Christmas miracle turns a final bit of holiday sadness into a joy that the boy has never known.
