Oct 19 Dear Santa by Debbie Macomber

 





Dear Santa by Debbie Macomber
Book starts out with a note from the author as to how she got the idea for this story. Dedication page.
Store starts with Lindy, she is back home for the holidays, loving she has a place to go.
She has news for them and tells them of losing her boyfriend to her best friend and out of a place to live but she solves that.
 She mother had saved all the letters Lindy had written to Santa over the years so this year she wants a new best friend.
She ends up shopping and meets up with her old friend from junior high and they run into owner of the place they are eating.
She had once written a letter to Santa about him and once she hears the troubles they had that Christmas she feels real bad.
Her mom has an idea, cookies for him.... he shares cookies and coffee in his office with her.
She designs websites and can help him out...and he has a nice way of showing his appreciation.
Love scavenger hunt she has with her new friends, so fun and a riddle to solve. Magical special day at Leavenworth, so festive.
She gets a shock when she sits to talk to Santa.  They see each other frequently and she is able to help pass out candy canes to the children.
love how the Christmas day went and the week after Lindy and Billy spend together.
His sister at the snowy hill gets her thinking of her decision to stay or to go back to the city to her job and apartment. Others have tried to persuade her to stay also...she also gives the hint of family secrets...
Her spouse have all their money invested in his restaurant and don't want to lose it.... Lindy has to go back to the city for work....
An excerpt  "Jingle all the way" is included at the end along with about the author.
I received this review copy from Ballantine Books via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.
