Book Description:
Seth Webster's heart never healed after he lost his adored wife. Now, with Christmas approaching, wild twin boys to raise alone, a home in chaos, and the latest in a long line of exasperated housekeepers quitting in disgust, Seth needs more than help to keep his family together ... he needs a miracle. And then a miracle arrives on his doorstep. Her name is Mrs. Merkle, but the kids call her "Mrs. Miracle" -- and from the moment the warm, knowing, and very patient nanny appears, everything is different. Her sassy spirit is infectious, and it gives Seth the courage to approach Reba, a beautiful travel agent who's been hurt and betrayed, and is afraid to ever love again. Through the magic of faith -- and with a little help from a children's Christmas pageant and a lot of encouragement from Mrs. Miracle -- Seth and Reba might just be able to find a Christmas miracle of their very own: true love.

Father of six-year-old twins boys, Widower Seth Webster is at his wits end and needs a miracle. She shows up in the form of a heaven-sent housekeeper named Mrs. Merkle. Mrs. Miracle, as the boys call her, dishes out words of wisdom and shares advice about taking risks and letting go of the past. She also hooks Seth up with Reba, a beautiful travel agent who has wounds of her own.

This is a busy book. Not only do we get Seth and Reba who both have problems to overcome; but we also read about Seth's in-laws and the problems in their marriage. This is a nice holiday story that reads very fast. It was also a bit of a tearjerker for me. My rating: 4 Stars.

I just finished this book and it left me feel so good and full of hope. It is a lovely book about family and church and love, loss and forgiveness.

Another great book by Macomber. She gave you 3 different characters and their story to follow. A easy read and very enjoyable.

You gotta love angels!! This is a wonderful story of love, forgiveness, family and faith. My favorite Mrs. Merkle quote (each chapter starts with a quote or saying from Mrs. Merkle)is "You have to wonder about humans. They think God is dead and Elvis is alive." The book also includes a few recipes.

Cute book.

I really liked Mrs. Miracle and the recipes included are pretty good. However, it seemed as though the author got tired of the characters or had a limit on length because all of a sudden, in just a few pages, everyone is forgiven and they are all going to live happily ever after.

I loved this book. It is about how angels are with us to guide us when we are lost.
