A sweet romance! I enjoyed this very much. Although a part of the plot included a hard subject, it was handled from a distance so that it only added to the plot and didn't see overwhelming. Great characters!

THE ORNAMENT OF HOPE DESCRIPTION:
An artsy Appalachian town. A miraculous ornament of hope. A divine date with love.
At Christmas, can a single ornament be enough to connect two hurting people and open their hearts to love again?
Following the advice of her therapist, SHAUNA MURPHY left her dream career and nightmare life behind in the big city. She made the dreaded trip home for the holidays to spend with her Christmas crazy family in Spring Valley, Tennessee, a heritage-crafters haven. She wasn’t convinced reconnecting with her family roots would be a cure-all, but she had nowhere else to go, except home. She finds moving forward from past trauma is no easy task. Nestled in the shadow of the Appalachian Mountains, her hometown enveloped her like a cozy quilt – wrapped her in comfort to calm and heal her hurts.
When GABE ANDERSON, a Northerner, moved to the South with his new bride to manage her family’s historic inn, he never imagined in a few short years he would be a widower, living alone in Spring Valley. After his tragic loss, just when Gabe began living again, he suffers another life altering event that leaves him questioning his future and purpose. An avid hiker, he finds solace in the mountains – his refuge, his sanctuary.
After retirement, ADA TAYLOR joined the little downtown business community and opened the Mockingbird Coffee House in an historic church building. It was perfect for Ada, since she also claimed the title, the First Lady, at the AME Zion Church. She was known for her traditional Southern desserts, but what really drew people to her coffee house was her listening ear and tender heart. As a prayer whisperer, she makes sure every cup of coffee has an extra-shot of blessings. On more than one occasion, she was guilty of playing matchmaker. It turns out to be a favorite hobby.
When Ada recruits Shauna and Gabe to sponsor a wishing ornament from the Giving Tree, they are miraculously chosen to be teammates. Together, they begin their wish granting mission to help provide assistance to struggling families in need. Along the troubled journey they find an ordinary Christmas ornament is an extraordinary symbol of the hope, love and joy to be found in giving.
A big heartfelt thank you for reading The Ornament of Hope. I hope you fell in love with Shauna and Gabe and found their love story to be a heartwarming Christmas inspiration. I pray the ordinary Christmas ornament that became an extraordinary symbol of the hope, love and joy to be found in giving will also find a place in your heart during this season of giving.If you did enjoy The Ornament of Hope. I would love for you to write a review on Amazon and/or on my contact page. Reviews are a huge help to authors, and I would love to read your feedback.
Thank you! Blessings!

Will the season of miracles bring together two strangers, each searching for happiness and true love that lasts?
Single mom, COURTNEY CLARK feels she’s finally getting her life back on track. She is devoted to her children, Chance and Gracie, and pursuing a nursing career. Recovering from an abusive relationship and the tragic passing of her ex-husband hasn’t been an easy task, but with the help of her father and her faith restored, she now has hope for her family. Her son has proven to be resilient, but she’s worried about Gracie. Her daughter’s heart held the imprint of their troubled past. Gracie laughs and plays, but genuine happiness seems just beyond her reach. Courtney is hoping and praying for a holiday miracle for Gracie.
Assigned to the mobile medical unit, Courtney meets handsome BLAKE BOONE, the traveling nurse practitioner who’s filling in for the NP on maternity leave.
Blake is not interested in a romantic relationship since his co-worker fiancé ended their engagement two years ago. Broken-hearted, he declared himself officially off the market, swore he would never date a co-worker again, and redirected his career to traveling NP. Still, he finds it hard to avoid the way he feels when Courtney is in the room. Dare he consider opening his heart again, or will he cast aside his feelings and move on to the next assignment?
The beloved ADA TAYLOR, owner of the Mockingbird Coffee House and Spring Valley’s favorite matchmaker, is determined to find the perfect eligible bachelor for Courtney. Ada has a hunch she’s found the ideal candidate, but bringing them together may require divine intervention. When Ada recruits Blake and Courtney to oversee a Giving Tree wishing ornament mission, they have no idea of the staggering adversities they will encounter, and they definitely didn’t anticipate the unexpected blessings. It will be a Christmas to remember.
