Still reading my Christmas book stash, as you can tell by A Mrs. Miracle Christmas (#1,031) by Debbie Macomber. I must admit, her Dashing Through the Snow (See my post of 12/13/2021.) is much more to my taste. I would classify A Mrs. Miracle Christmas as a Christian fiction work because of its heavy emphasis on faith and Scriptures.
Here, Mrs. Miracle (and her friends Shirley, Goodness and Mercy) appear again in the story of a young couple struggling with infertility and caring for a beloved grandmother whom they are slowing losing to dementia. After having a foster baby reclaimed by a birth parent only a few days before his adoption was to be finalized, Laurel and Zach have decided they cannot endure any more heartbreak. They will never become parents. Laurel is lost in her despair, but Zach still maintains a spark of hope, and that is where Mrs. Miracle comes in. On the surface, she is sent by the Caring Angels agency to provide companionship to Helen, so that Laurel and Zach are free to go to their jobs without worrying about Helen home alone and isolated. But when Helen shows amazing improvement, and claims Mrs. Miracle is an angel, well, what should the couple do? There's a miracle in it for everyone.
