A Christmas Dinner on Marshall Street: She's returning to her hometown for the holidays...but one important person is missing. (The Hills of Burlington Book 5)
There’s really only one thing Fran Wrightmire wants for Christmas.
Her husband, Cade, knows that it’s beyond his power to deliver the one gift he knows would make his wife happiest this holiday season. But that doesn’t mean he isn’t without other ideas of what will make her Christmas one to remember. He’s taking her home to Burlington for a reunion with family and friends and the yearly tradition of Christmas dinner at the Marshall Street house.
On their arrival in Burlington, Fran is reunited with those she spent so many of her childhood summers with. And it doesn’t take long before her Aunt Charlie reminds her of all that made those summers so special.
Fran soon finds out that her husband has been busy in Burlington too. And his surprise means more to her than she suspects he’s aware of. In his gift to her, Fran sees how well he knows her heart.
And as Christmas draws near, Fran comes to understand the words her father had once shared with her so many years ago during another visit to Burlington. Home isn’t always a place…it’s the people who live there, he had told her. She understands now, no longer the child she’d been then, of what and who he meant. Family.
A Christmas Dinner on Marshall Street is a story of family. Both the family we’re born to and grow up with and the family we find along the way. It is the story of where we go when we need support in our best and worst moments. Where and who we turn to when life throws all it can at us. And then more. And it is when we find that the where we go to is really the who we go to. Family.
A Christmas Dinner on Marshall Street, the fifth in the Hills of Burlington series, is the continuing family saga of six contemporary women, their family and friends, of different generations but drawn together at a time when all are at a crossroad in their lives…and searching for something they’ve not yet found. Other books in the series include Return to Cedar Hill, Retreat to Woodhaven, Summer Street Secrets, and Refuge on Leebrick.
