A terrific, heart-warming story full of Christmas spirit, a little romance, and the hope of new love and reconciliation.

They came seeking love, peace, and joy. Will they find it in the midst of the Storm?

In this page-turning holiday adventure, USA Today bestselling author Stephany Tullis weaves a story of suspense, romance, family ties, and sinuous passions.

Ms. Isabel Johnson, a lifelong and highly respected resident of Chandlerville, Kentucky, celebrates the first year of her thriving bed and breakfast by hosting the Holly Jolly Holiday Couples Retreat.

With a waitlist of more than 20 couples, the hottest topic around town is the retreat.

Have you seen the confidential couples’ questionnaire?

Guess what’s on the Retreat itinerary?

Who’s going?

Who’s not going?

And, more importantly,, who is going with whom?

The specialty team hired to conduct the retreat cancel their obligation two weeks before the holiday event.

When Dr. Jared Johnson, Ms. Isabel’s grandson, refuses to step to the plate, fate intervenes. And despite last minute severe winter storm warnings, Ms. Johnson eagerly welcomes her guests onto the festively decorated grounds.

The jubilant couples arrive in search of love, peace, joy, and in some cases, renewed relationships. But will they find it in the midst of the storm?

When personal and physical storms threaten to destroy the planned Christmas-spirited festivities, a host of incognito angels block the evil forces that threaten the lives and relationships of retreat guests proving once again, that love is indeed the answer.

Review by Sibyl Mory:

This Christmas story starts off in a somber mood with Tina suffering a car accident. We are not sure what has happened to her.

A disparate collection of couples (with a varied array of problems and issues) then book up for the Holly Jolly Holiday Couples Retreat, with planned sleigh rides, horseback riding, and other goodies.

Will this be ‘the season of hope, love, and new birth’?

Or will things turn out badly?

No spoilers, but a terrific, heart-warming story full of Christmas spirit, and the hope of new love and reconciliation.

Just the thing to set us up for the festivities coming.
