Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asa was no stranger to tragedy. She had already had more than her fair share of obstacles in life considering she was only in seventh grade. After a heartbreaking accident had taken her parents away last year, she had been forced to move and live with her grandparents and attend a new school, Kane Creek Middle School. While her life had suddenly been turned upside down, her faith had remained strong while keeping her balanced and relatively positive. Even so, she was having a hard time establishing new friends. With assistance from Mandy, her youth pastor, she realized that she wasn't making things easy on herself. She couldn't keep pushing people away. She also came to terms with the fact that her grandparents, Nana and Pap, were having difficulty moving on from the accident. They had turned away from their church and their faith as they struggled daily with their loss. Then one fateful day, Mr. Kane, a kindly neighbor and editor of the local newspaper, introduced Asa to the Guest Editorial where readers could express ideas and concerns to challenge the community into action. Asa humbly asked to give it a try, and an idea began to take shape that would forever alter her life and many others living in the town of Kane Creek and beyond. Time was running out. The Christmas anniversary of her parents' death was approaching. A miracle was needed, and Asa felt that she was being led to fashion one with the direction and oversight of the Holy Spirit. New obstacles confronted her consistently. Tragedy and sorrow continued to confound her, but new answers and new friends miraculously appeared to guide Asa through the challenges. Would she be able to help piece together another Christmas miracle that God could use to show the rest of the world what she already knew? God is good. Miracles are real.

Book excerpt: In Spring Green, Wisconsin, spinster sisters Milly and Twiss have spent their lives listening to heartbeats and heartaches, nursing birds and the people who bring them back to health. Back in the summer of 1947, Milly and Twiss knew nothing about trying to mend what had been accidentally broken. Milly was known as a great beauty with emerald eyes and Twiss was a brazen wild child who never wore a dress or did what she was told. That was the summer their golf pro father had an accident that cost him both his swing and his charm, and their mother, the daughter of a wealthy jeweler, finally admitted that their hardscrabble lives wouldn't change. It was the summer their priest, Father Rice, announced that God didn't exist and ran off to Mexico, and a boy named Asa finally caught Milly's eye. Most unforgettably, it was also the summer their cousin Bett came down from a town called Deadwater and changed the course of their lives forever. Rebecca Rasmussen's masterful debut novel is full of hope and beauty, heartbreak and sacrifice, love and the power of sisterhood, offering wonderful surprises at every turn.
