Christmas box / Richard Paul Evans 125 p.

Young parents, Richard and Keri, find a new start-up business irresistible as it lets them move back home. Now with a daughter, Jenna, Richard and Keri need a larger space. They take the job of live-in caretaker for lonely widow Mary Parkin. When they move in Richard discovers the ornate wood music box in the attic. The families blend with true warmth. Jenna looks upon Mary as a grandmother. However, Richard is drawn in more and more with the business at the expense of family time. Mary urges him to adjust his schedule as this time will not come again and to understand the gift of Christmas. Richard is just too busy. As Mary lays dying, Richard gets it-- love is God's greatest gift.
