Shirley, Goodness and Mercy are back! These three irresistible angels love their assignments on Earth. They especially love helping people who send prayer requests to Heaven (even though the Archangel Gabriel, their boss, knows they're going to break his rules)!
This Christmas, Mercy is assigned to bring peace of mind to an elderly man...who discovers an unexpected answer to his prayer.
Goodness is sent to oversee the love life of a young woman afraid to risk commitment a second time.
And Shirley has the task of granting a little boy's fondest Christmas wish.
Shirley, Goodness and Mercy go wherever they're needed. These three charming angels often find themselves in trouble, but somehow things always work out for the best - especially at Christmas.
Sandra Burr gives an excellent rendition of the three angels Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy in another of Debbie Macomber's novels of heavenly influences on human behavior. Each angel is assigned a different task to be completed by Christmas Eve. One assignment involves an elderly man facing death who does not want to leave his wife to cope for herself. Another situation involves a lonely young woman who believes love will never come her way again. The last story is about a boy who desperately wants a dog his parents cannot afford. Burr creates apt characterizations. This delightful book has a light yet tender Christmas atmosphere and a satisfying end. N.L. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
