"inspirational family drama"
Two years ago George Wright died from a massive coronary
leaving behind his wife Megan and their six year old son
Jordan. The surviving Wrights lost more than a father and
husband as both still mourn his death. With Megan fully
occupied as a NYC prosecutor, Jordan feels lonely. He
writes a letter to God asking for a daddy for Christmas.
Megan sees the note and decides to sign up her son with the
Healing Hearts Program. Restaurateur Casey Cummins has never recovered from the
deaths of his wife and baby. His caring friend persuades
him to volunteer at the Healing Hearts Program. His child
is Jordan. As he and Jordan become pals, he and Megan fall
in love, but both must overcome the ghosts of losing their
first spouse. This inspirational family drama is an enjoyable
contemporary tale that encourages those who have lost a
loved one not to give up on life. The three key characters
seem real and those coaxing them to start anew with fond
memories add depth to the theme. A neat twist involving
the teen past of the adults will turn some off, but most
readers will see it as MAGGIE'S MIRACLE. Harriet Klausner
