The crisp fragrance of pine
trees and the warm spice of fresh cookies aren’t the only blessings that
Christmas brings, and no one knows more about happy homecomings than
three couples who are celebrating the greatest gift of all . . .
BUGGIES, TRAINS, AND AUTOMOBILES * Shelley Shepard Gray
Called home by family, John Miller and Ellie Coblentz are each looking
for a way north from Pinecraft, Florida. With few options, they decide
sharing the burden of travel must be the Lord’s plan for them. But can
this bumpy, bad-weather journey home help them find their way into each
other’s hearts, too?
STAR OF WONDER * Charlotte Hubbard
When Raymond Overholt comes to Promise Lodge, hoping to sell the
barnboard signs he’s painted with stars and Christmas messages, spirited
young Mennonite Lizzie Zehr is intrigued. But any courtship between
them will face fierce opposition from the bishop of Raymond’s Old Order
community—unless someone can convince him that at the heart of faith
lies love . . .
STARLIGHT EVERLASTING * Rosalind Lauer
Newlyweds Rachel and Luke Coblentz can’t wait to celebrate their first
Christmas together after years of courtship. But when Luke’s factory job
threatens to keep them apart—from each other and their dream of a
family—it will take faith to believe in the gift of a truly joyful
ending.

Charlotte Hubbard sold her first historical romance in 1990, and she’s been a slave to her overactive imagination ever since. As she writes, her stories invariably take on a life of their own, different from the way she proposed them: unforeseen characters and plot twists come along, and they keep her guessing right along with her readers!
Charlotte has lived in the Midwest most of her life. When she’s not writing, she loves touring historic homes, trying new recipes, crocheting, and playing with her Border Collie, Ramona. She’s a Presbyterian deacon, sings in her church choir, and plays in the percussion ensemble. She’s married to a fine man who—bless him—has never once suggested she get a real job!
My Review
I loved this book and would have been happy to just keep reading, but they did come to conclusions!
Each author gives us a different story, they are not connected, but I was familiar with Charlotte Hubbard's characters, and some of the back stories, I did love how she used a famous Christmas story in her read, and how it all turned out!
Three entirely different stories to bring the true meaning of Christmas, and they all follow the Christmas Star.
A great book to get into the Holiday Spirit!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Kensington, and was not required to give a positive review.
