“White Christmas” by Cara Putman. In 1942, Abigail Turner stays home in
Lafayette, Indiana while attending Purdue University and
working at a candy store. Abigail prefers no man in her life after her
boyfriend Sam died at Pearl Harbor until limping Jackson Lucas rescues her from
being hit by a car.
“I’ll Be Home for Christmas” by Sarah Sundin.
In 1943 Army fighter pilot Pete Turner is back in in Lafayette but
struggles to adjust to the home front after his combat experiences until he
meets sad six year old Linnie Kessler. Her daddy died and his body was never
recovered. Pete wants to bring a Merry Christmas
to the hurting child and her widow mom Grace who only knows him as a nasty
person.
“Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” by Sarah Sundin.
In 1944 in Nieuwenhagen, the Netherlands, Meredith, the younger
sister of Abigail and Pete serves as a
combat nurse following just behind the troops at the front lines. However, someone seems to know her, but Merry
fears this unknown person is betraying her with reminders of her broken heart
or perhaps it is a Christmas miracle.
This is a spectacular WWII family anthology as
three siblings are caught up in war and romance to the music of Bing. Historical romance fans will sing Let It Snow
while wishing for the Turner trio to have a Hoosier Merry Christmas in 1945.
