Abbey knows exactly what she wants from life, and she's meeting each goal on schedule. As the successful manager of a busy store, with plans to return to school for her MBA, Abbey's already well on her way. Whatever happens after that, she's quite certain her plan doesn't include love. And she definitely doesn't have time for God. But Abbey's plan is derailed when, by accident, she receives the wrong Christmas gift from her kooky missionary aunt. Sorting out the mix-up brings Mike Tucker into her life... and as she gets to know him, she finds herself beginning to question her plan. When Mike and Abbey both end up as inmates for charity in the Candy Cane Calaboose, something begins to change in Abbey's heart. Maybe her life has room for love after all. And maybe, just maybe, she has room for God as well...

In first grade, Janet Spaeth was asked to write a summary of a story about a family making maple syrup. She wrote all during class, through morning recess, lunch, and afternoon recess, and asked to stay after school. When the teacher pointed out that a summary was supposed to be shorter than the original story, Janet explained that she didn’t feel the readers knew the characters well enough, so she was expanding on what was in the first-grade reader. Thus a writer was born. She lives in the Midwest and loves to travel, but to her, the happiest word in the English language is home.
