A last wish brings them together. Only love can keep them there.

Children’s hospital administrator Ryland Davids was attracted to event planner Jennalyn James the moment he saw her. He thought there would be plenty of time to get to know her—until her younger sister, Sabrina, was admitted with complications from traumatic brain injury.

Sabrina’s bright courage broke through Ryland’s wall of professional distance, but once she drew her last breath, Jennalyn left the hospital and never returned. Though he understands her need for distance, there’s a hole in his heart that won’t heal. And a last wish from Sabrina he’s honor-bound to deliver.

When Jennalyn comes face to face with Ryland at a charity event, the pain comes rushing back, threatening to shatter her everything’s-fine façade. It doesn’t help that the lump in her throat is mostly her heart, leaping in response to his touch.

Despite her reluctance to return to the scene of her grief, she fulfills Sabrina’s final request to plan a series of Christmas events for the kids. Over the course of A Month of Miracles, Ryland and Jennalyn discover there’s the light of hope at the end of grief’s dark tunnel. But it may not be enough to heal her broken heart.

Now onto the review...
This is a great holiday romance. You have two people who are both damaged inside overcoming their pain to help children in need throughout the holiday season. While putting together all these separate events for the kids they start to get over their grief and learn to start opening up again.

I really enjoyed reading about these two characters. Jennalyn recently lost the only family she had left, her sister. So when at a work function she runs into Ryland, she is immediately brought back to her time spent in the hospital with her dying sister. When she finds out that her sister's dying request is to team up with Ryland for a month of miracles for the kids, there is no way that she can refuse. She still has her reservations and has a huge wall erected around her. However, over time she starts to see how caring Ryland is. All the events with the children start to bring her joy and soon her pain doesn't seem to be so bad.

I think the author did an amazing job writing this story. If you're looking for a heartfelt holiday romance, this is the one!
