This review is from: A Christmas Wish (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book really buoyed my holiday spirit and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I planned to read this leisurely over the holiday season, but once I started reading I couldn't put it down. Pierce and Patricia's story will capture your heart and have you cheering for them from start to finish. This is my first time reading this author and I must say that Ms. Norfleet has done an excellent job in creating this Christmas inspired book. A Christmas Wish is worth reading not only during this yuletide season, but at any time on the year. In fact, you can even read it in the summer and have Christmas in July!

5.0 out of 5 stars What A Wonderful Gift to Receive - True Love, January 25, 2003

This review is from: A Christmas Wish (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)

"A Christmas Wish" is a great book! I enjoyed it. Young Kimberly Franklin was a determined female and set out on getting the best Christmas present she could think of for her uncle, Pierce. That gift was in the shape and form of Patricia Burke. Although Patricia and Pierce were not on to what Kimberly was conniving, they were mutually attracted to one another. So one young girl's wish turned out to be the best present for everyone.
