Product Description
From the New York Times bestselling authors comes a story of Cape Light Christmas surprises…

Molly knows she’s fortunate, but after raising children who are nearing adulthood, she is pregnant again. With her own life just taking off she can’t conceal her disappointment—and will have to explore what she truly needs to be happy to recapture her Christmas spirit. Meanwhile, Miranda has found an unconscious man in her orchard and while she nurses him back to health, an unexpected attraction develops. Can she let uncertainty back in her life again? And Reverend Ben finds his own mystery, an abandoned wooden angel statue that people believe holds miraculous powers. He’d wished for more visitors, but his church turning into a tourist attraction is more of a burden than a blessing.

Christmas doesn’t always bring the things we ask for or expect. But sometimes it brings gifts more wonderful than we dreamed…

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice addition to series, October 20, 2007

By	T. Johnson - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: A Christmas Visitor (Cape Light, Book 8) (Hardcover)

I am a huge fan of the 'Cape Light' series. This book was definately better than the last installment but it's the 4th christmas themed book that they've put out. It would be nice to see a change of setting in the next book besides Christmas. There were 3 story lines to follow in this one and although I understood and could easily follow them, I found myself wishing they were a bit more 'filled' out. For someone who has not been reading the series, they would like this book but should start from the beginning to fully grasp the stories. Nice book to cozy up and read.

5.0 out of 5 stars An inspiring Chritmas story, November 17, 2007

By	B. Smith (Thurmont, MD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: A Christmas Visitor (Cape Light, Book 8) (Hardcover)

This is the fourth in a series of Christmas books that Thomas Kincaid has taken a part in the writing thereof. The novels are set in the ficticious town of Cape Light and as you read each one you become more familiar with the citizens and their families and the daily lives they lead.
There is always a test of faith and courage involved. This new novel is especially charming and inspiring. Trust, doubt, belief and values make up the content.
I found "A Christmas Visitor' especially moving as each person faced and solved their problems with the aid of some special people and an 'Angel' that visits Cape Light for the Christmas season.
I look forward every year to Kincaid's Christmas stories.
The other four books are equally as good as they too take place in Cape Light just in a different time of year.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Christmas Tale, September 5, 2008

By	Patrice Fagnant-macarthur "www.spiritualwoman... (Springfield, MA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This review is from: A Christmas Visitor (Cape Light, Book 8) (Hardcover)

Are you looking for a sweet work of fiction to help put you in the Christmas spirit? "A Christmas Visitor" by Katherine Spencer and Thomas Kinkade may be just what you are looking for. Escape to the small New England town of Cape Light where everyone's lives are interconnected and multiple lives are about to experience some Christmas magic.

There are actually three Christmas visitors in this tale. The first is a man found in a field who has apparently suffered from an accident and is experiencing amnesia. The second visitor is a statue of an angel which mysteriously appears in the basement of a small church. The last is an unexpected pregnancy. These three visitors will radically change the lives of those they touch.

"A Christmas Visitor" is a very appealing story that will leave you smiling and your heart full of the wonder of Christmas this holiday season.
