Extended description

Pie in the Sky:

Unlike most girls her age, Polly MacNamara did not go out with friends to parties or on sleigh rides with charming beaux. She stayed home to take care of her ailing mother and only dreamed of a world of boundless riches and endless fun. But when shopping for a Christmas gift in Chinatown, she received a mysterious coin from an ancient-looking woman--and watched a series of remarkable events unfold . . . .

Recipe for Love:

Soon, Polly's secret ingredient for happiness would appear in the unlikely form of her handsome and wealthy employer--James Drayton. She discovered he wasn't the snobbish and cold-hearted Scrooge she had always thought, but instead a lonely soul in need of a family. But could their love bridge the class divide and bring them the Christmas miracle they both needed? With a dash of faith and a pinch of patience, Polly set out to cook up a holiday wish as scrumptious as . . .

Review by: Janet Deleeuw on July 05, 2011 :
I love this book - it mixes a little magic with romance and humour. Just an all around good story with a heroine who can stand on her own two feet and a very nice hero.

Review by: Sarah Bathurst on March 02, 2011 :
Occasionally I read a book that I feel would make a good Christmas Movie. This book is one of the most warm, delightful, refreshing stories I've read in a long time and I've read a lot of books over the last year. it is a prefect book to read over the holidays or on a rainy day and you want to cuddle under a blanket, relax, and slip away into a delightful story. Well written, easy twists and turns, and a hero. Truly Delightful!
