Plum Pudding Bride
88 pages · First published 2015
A holiday courtship develops around a heroine whose Christmas plans are disrupted by a man and circumstances she did not expect. Family gatherings and seasonal obligations keep the couple together long enough for first impressions to soften into genuine interest. Faith and the warmth of Christmas traditions give the romance a hopeful framework even when misunderstandings threaten the relationship. Anne Garboczi Evans offers a sweet inspirational Christmas romance centered on discovering that an unexpected bride—or an unexpected groom—may be the season’s most surprising gift.
