The wish

by Lauralee Bliss

Debbie Reilly longs for love and a place to belong. She delights in her work with the elderly of White Pines Health Care Facility, but her friendship with the residents causes friction among the nurses. Especially when one has an eligible grandson. Neil Jenson enjoys his visits with his grandma Elvina. He wants to surprise her with a wonderful Christmas at home, but he discovers she's the one with surprises - a secret from her past. Debbie seems to be the only one who can help straighten out the mess... with Grandma and his heart. Has the Lord brought Neil and Debbie together in order to answer everyone's Christmas wishes? Or will the mystery of Neil's past destroy his hope for a wonderful future?
