A Christmas Promise / Thomas Kinkade and Katherine Spencer / 298 pages / Winter Holiday Themed Book

"We never know what God has in store for us around the next bend in the road.  Anything could happen at any moment, one's entire life could change in the blink of an eye, in the time it took to draw a single breath."  This is certainly true of Leigh Baxter and James Cameron.  Leigh is fleeing an abusive ex-husband in an attempt to keep her unborn baby safe.   He is the owner and CEO of one of the oldest textile mills in New England and wields great power and influence.  He is searching for her.  When her used car experiences difficulties in Cape Light's first snowstorm of the season, she is rear-ended by James Cameron's car, which has slid on the snow, and ends up in a ditch.  James is a visiting minister, staying in Cape Light to recover from malaria contracted during mission work in Nicaragua.  The rest of the story is heartwarming and inspiring as the town welcomes Leigh and she becomes a part of the rush to celebrate Christmas.
